Found this on the Owl's Head summit on a fallen tree. I have no idea what it is!. Take a close look at it! White Mountains, NH 8-07

Never seen the blue stuff before

'cept for this one time when I had a nasty sinus infection. Maybey cuz I haven't done Owl's Head YET. Something tells me it will be the last of the 3 remaining 4k's for me. Was it trudge over there or what? I hear the summits wooded and hard to get any good views of the Pemi Wilderness-true?

Re: Never seen the blue stuff before

The hike was not that bad, mostly flat until you reach the base of the mountain under the slide. You have to look for the cairns that lead to the herd path for the slide or it can be easily passed. The slide itself was easier than I expected but still fun. We could see the Franconia ridge while hiking it but once up top don't expect any views whatsoever. The color of this snot really got me. I have never seen this stuff before and it seemed to glow. It was cool!
