A chilly day for a hike in May

Very windy atop Cascade!
On a cold day in May, the six of us headed up Cascade in freezing cold conditions. Took us a short 1.5 hours to ascend. This was the first aerobic endurance activity that I have completed since my two-year hiatus from exercise due to my back injury. It felt great to be perspiring again in the outdoors! Up top we summited in a cloud with extreme winds and rain so after a short visit we retreated quickly down. Returned to the Wilmington State Campground for a hot shower and then into Lake Placid for a warm meal!
