reflection of Wildcat Mountain on Carter Lake in New Hampshire

Between Carter Dome and Wildcat A I have to drop down 1000 ft into Carter Notch. At Carter Lakes is this beautiful scene of pond lilies floating on the reflected mountain scene behind. I hike 11 miles in 8 hours and meet 46 hikers on the trail (not TOO crowded for a mid-summer Sunday!). The steep section of the Wildcat Ridge Trail from Peak E down to Pinkham is a lot of fun (glad I have my gloves)!
