"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Untitled CommentFine page on a hill area near the Boston Metro area. Gives folks a chance to get out of town on short notice!

Untitled CommentThanks for vote. I decide to hike these hills because I figured it would be warmer in Boston than in New Hampshire which was below zero at the time. Boston wasn't much warmer. I was always interested in these hills because the hike had shown up in a number of books. The hills themselves have view somewhat similiar to that of Rock Rimmon in Manchester.

Untitled CommentNice instructive page. Can you really call this a summit? My last mountain was 4500 ft and I asked myself if it should be posted on S.P.
Let's say I'm a little confused
Cheers
