A solo hike, and double-bagged North and Middle peaks (4th and 5th 4000 footer). I was pleasantly surprised to find the 'Flags on the 48' was on the same day. I topped North Tripyramid as the flag was being raised, shortly thereafter a Black Hawk helicopter flew over head! A very special hike and I am glad I could experience the special tribute. One of the flag raisers was a seven-year-old who already hiked all 48 4000 footers! Continued on to Middle and South Tripyramids.
