Mts Morgan & Percival

A lovely day greeted the 5 GO members who ventured to make the ascent of Mounts Morgan and Percival.  Beautiful views from both summits south to Squam Lake and Lake Winnipesaukee.  At least one in our group reasoned we'd climbed a 4000 footer since both summits were over 2000'.  Can't fault him for trying.  Small group but good company and a very nice outing.

Please join me for this 5.5 mile loop hike of Mts Morgan & Percival.  The 2200' peaks sit above Squam Lake and afford spectacular views south to Squam and Lake Winnepesauke after a 1500' elevation gain.  It's a short, challenging hike but well worth the effort for the views.  We'll ascend via the Mt Morgan trail, traverse the ridge on the Crawford-Ridgepole trail to Mr Percival where we'll have lunch above the cliffs and then descend the Mt Percival trail back to the parking lot.  Should be down by 3PM.
