My lovely wife and I decided to take advantage of the good weather and went for a short hike. We did a section of the
Cohos Trail in the Nash Stream area.
Cohos is the old spelling of Coos County. The trail crosses 170+ miles from one end of the county to the other. Much of it is in wilderness areas. Coos County is the largest county in the state of New Hampshire but has the smallest population. The county is geographically larger than Rhode Island, but has less than 32,000 people.
My lovely wife and I did a small section hike in the Nash Stream area. Then we went for a short drive to see more of the state forest. There's an interesting area where camps circle the high ground around a meadow. That meadow used to be a pond, until one day the dam broke. One of the camps is actually named, “Broken Dam Camp.”
I've been slowly strengthening my leg that had suffered a bad infection. My lovely wife is working on her ankle that was badly sprained during the summer. We didn't do a super long hike, but it's the longest we've walked over uneven ground since our injuries. Our legs held up and were not reinjured, so that's good news.
All in all, a fine day.

Glad you didn't twist anything. I'll bet it's beautiful this time of year.
ReplyDeleteIt's been unusually nice and we took advantage of it.
DeleteSorry we didn't get to NH on this trip. A e day delay in Virginia kinda set us back, but glad to be home.
ReplyDeleteLooks like y'all are taking a lovely way to physical therapy. Great pics.
Sorry you couldn't make it this far north. The hike did us good. It's also good to be out in nature for our mental health.
