Ascent Trip Report

The last peak of the day on my attempt at the Wright-Algonquin-Iroquois trio. It wasn't terribly tough when looking at the whole hike up to this point and there were a few cool spots where it took a little finesse to get up the rocks. Considering the top of Boundary as the starting point, it was only another 14-18 feet in net elevation change (depending on the source) to top off Iroquois. Snapped a few more pics from the summit and started the walk back up to the top of Algonquin. I had read about the loop trip but wasn't feeling up to it this day. That's all the more incentive to go back and do it again.
