My partner, myself and a friend are planning to bag a few peaks from the Washington Scrambles book over an extended August long weekend. Mount Washington (1906m) P799, Lightning Peak (1419m) P177 & The Brothers (2093m) P847. First 2 peaks will be car camping / day hikes, then we will backpack 2 nights to get The Brothers. All peaks are outside of ONP so we can bring our fur family member.
