The Whites are the most beautiful hiking we've had. If you ever get a chance to do some of the AT I think any past thru-hiker would say this is the place.
Walking along Franconia Notch between Liberty Peak and Mt. Lafayette was a fantastic walk. We had panoramic views of surrounding country side.
Dan and Stephan did a work for stay at Lonesome Lake Hut. They stirred the food compost. So picture in your mind two sweaty guys shoveling a months worth of decomposed food onto a screen and then sifting the dirt out. Safe to say they stank worse than they normally do. Fortunately they used the hut's croo shower to get the smell off.
We spent the night on Webster cliffs cowboy style last night. Sleeping under the stars is one of the best things about the trail. You get a great sunset and sunrise along with stars all night.
The best scenery was while walking Franconia Ridge the other day. We had a gorgeous day and didn't have to do big miles so we took our time and rested at every peak. These trails are busy with dayhikers and some overnight hikers and we always run into them at trail junctions.
Okay enough for now.
