This thread has gone a few days stale but I'm hoping the topic is still palatable. I'm in Burlington VT right now, about to continue my bike tour through the Northeast and am having difficulty deciding just how extensive I should make the tour before I start my Southerly migration for the winter. I've been doing some peak bagging and backpacking during my tours and I'd been hoping to hike Mt. Washington in NH and Mt. Katahdin in Maine. I'm just worried about being in Maine in late September. I'll be heading down the coast after I've summited Mt. Katahdin but I don't want to feel like I'm racing Winter as I tour. I'd prefer to keep most of my night time lows above freezing if possible.
Anyone done tours in the Northeast this late in the season?
