Little House, Big House Mountains - March 8, 2018


submitted by Barbara Martin

Six hikers, Karl Mohns, John Herrity, Joan Gilran Dennis Templeton, Andre Meyer and Michael Seth joined hike leader, Barbara Martin, for a  trek up House Mountain in Lexington.  We climbed steadily up a fire road to the saddle where signs are posted about the history of House Mountain and how this area was protected and the trails were built.  We decided to hike up Big House Mountain first, as it affords the best views.  The climb was steep, but the views were worth it.  As we looked off into the valley and enjoyed our lunch the sky darkened and snowflakes danced through the air.  After seeing Table Rock, we made our way back down and decided to leave Little House Mountain for another day as the air began to fill with snow.  We made our way back to the cars and enjoyed beverages at the local ale house in Lexington.
