With some weird weather (alternating between sunny and rain, with distance thunder), I decided to do a quick hike up nearby Page Hill. While I was hoping to see some foliage, most of the trees along the trail still had green leaves.

The views from the ledges were excellent as usual, with some color creeping up Mt. Whiteface, Passaconaway, and Chocorua. The Sandwich Dome appeared to be topped in some storm clouds.
