GREAT OSSIPEE (MT SHAW) HIKE

Please join me for a hike to the summits of Black Snout (2803') and Mt Shaw (2990'), highest "peaks" in the Ossipee Mountains. The overall moderate roundtrip is 7.6 miles which includes a 1/2 mile somewhat strenuous section just before joining the old carriage road (from Castle in the Clouds) which then takes us easily to both summits with views of Lake Winnipesaukee (from Black Snout) and the Whites (from Shaw).  Please come with a daypack, lunch, plenty of water and layers (depending on the forecast).  Possibility of a group dinner afterwards at Ossipee Lake for those so inclined and able to join.  Since there's very limited parking at the trailhead, anyone coming along Route 25W ( from Maine) and Route 16N is welcome to come to my house in Center Ossipee (1 mile from the junction of 25 E/W and 16 N/S) and carpool from there.
