Cannon
9/18/2018
4.0 miles round-trip
2100 feet of elevation gain
Last Monday, I solo hiked Cannon Mountain. I started the hike at around 5:00 am since I had an AP English Language class in the morning that I needed to attend that day. Soon after I began the hike, I delayered and took off my fleece.
The sky was a dark and mysterious blue-gray.
The sky lightened as the sun came up. I had multiple viewpoints while hiking, thanks to the many gaps in the trees.
The gradual sunrise was beautiful.
I like this picture; I was luckily able to capture perfect purple clouds with pink bases.
The viewpoint was rewarding. Here are some pictures I took from there:

Looking back...
I was happy to see the summit structure. It was a beautiful morning.
I saw lovely views from the top:

After a little while, Sage and Mom, who were hiking the mountain as well (but significantly behind me so I could hike solo), caught up with me, and we spent some time at the summit together.
Coming down...
The leaves are turning already! Time flies.

It was a nice hike.
