The handsome summit ledges of Mount Crawford, a great place to linger on a warm fall day. (ED PARSONS PHOTO)

On a gorgeous warm and windless fall day, we decided to do a moderate hike up Mount Crawford (3,119 feet) off the Davis Path. We knew that the summit’s rocky promontory was a perfect place to look out over the mountains around Crawford Notch to the west, and the nearby Montalban Ridge to the north.

We didn’t anticipate how the chemistry of our group would fit perfectly with the sunlit granite and the vastness of the vista, and that we would spend a good two hours on top — a record for me, I think.
