It was great to join in on this hike. Great group and stellar way to remember the day and honor those lost that day.

Tim, thanks for sharing the video of the military chopper flyover, that indeed was a special moment and call to remember those who have served and sacrafice to keep us safe since. Also, today was proof that Yankee and Red Sox fans can come together for a worthy endeavour.

Our six by ten foot flag in all of its glory

I got this photo of the flag on South Twin 16x zoom, could see it with naked eye from West Bond

A great day and reason to head deep into the Pemi

some extra photos

Hi All,

I just signed up for this peak, sorry for doing so late! Hopefully you guys would welcome an extra participant and someone to carry flag stuff or provisions for the extended summit stay. If this is a private party or I am intruding last second I would not be offended if you would prefer me to sign up for a different peak. Feel free to PM me here or on Views From The Top on which I am also a member. I can keep the pace needed to make the summit by 12 noon; have completed the NH 48 with many repeats, run regularly including finished a marathon this year. I have two generations of NYC firefighters in my family (grandfather who just passed away a month ago, and uncle) and I would love to be able to participate this year as I did on Carrigain in ‘08

Thanks!

John
