About this episode

Got 3-minutes to get away from technology and into the lush summer woods of New England to North Pack Monadnock Mountain?! Sure, video of a hike is a poor substitute, but maybe you can't get into the woods? Maybe you're in the city? Or a wheelchair? Maybe this is "assistive hiking"? Get some headphones, clear a few minutes, take a few deep breaths and follow me into the woods. Who knows, the deep breaths alone might be good? I'll keep the editing mellow, with no surprises and make the peak in 3-minutes. It's a beautiful 1.5 mile hike in south-central New Hampshire at the northern end of the Wapack Range. From Wikipedia: "According to local tradition, the word "pack" is a Native American word for "little" and "monadnock" is used to describe an isolated mountain summit; thus "Little Monadnock" refers to its relationship to the higher Mount Monadnock, 3,165 feet (965 m), 11 miles (18 km) to the west."
