The temperature was great and the summit beautiful! We had no trouble finding parking on Bangor Street at 9:00am, but could tell right away we were in for a buggy climb (no surprise, it being Memorial Day weekend in the White Mountains). I had frequented a few weather and trail report websites for a week or two leading up to our climb, and therefore knew to pack some microspikes just in case we came upon some snow. And we did (no surprise... it being Memorial Day weekend in the White Mountains). The first third of the trail had moderate grades and easy footing, but was very buggy. The next third was mostly comprised of ledges to shinny over, a few nice views, and more bugs. The final third was bugless (finally!), the one benefit to having to suddenly navigate through/over a mile and a half of crumbling monorail. Lunch at the summit helped to lessen the blow and keep us from developing a poor opinion of what is clearly a beautiful mountain. I would definitely be interested in hiking Moriah again under slightly better conditions (e.g. minus the frighteningly unstable snow pack and the gang of thousands of black flies that followed and attacked us).
