Kate Barnes- week 5

 October 25, 2020- Today I hiked Mount Monadnock to it’s summit with some friends of mine. I’m not much of a hiker so I didn’t fall in love with the idea upon first glance, or really upon the first couple of glances. Even when I got to the base of the mountain I couldn’t help but think, “No way am I going up there.”. And the beginning was also not something that I enjoyed. But when we reached the first cliffside, I looked back at how far I’d come, and I started to see the appeal. When we finally reached the summit, the air was thin and freezing cold. But the view was incredible, made even sweeter by the fact that I had climbed up that mountain myself.
