    Southwest Twin, N&S Twin, Galehead

    That was our group that lost the two GPS units on SW Twin. :o We immediately knew we dropped one of them in the thick stuff and were still unable to retrieve it. After hiking SW Twin from the Franconia Brook side, I’m convinced that the route from the Twinway has to be better. We know of...

    Southwest Twin, N&S Twin, Galehead

    Thanks for posting. I don't see Trip Reports about Southwest Twin too often. A group of us are working on the Winter Trailwrights list. We still have Southwest Twin to go but after our 14 hour ordeal to SW Twin from Lincoln Woods in September, we thought we might be stuck at 71 of 72. Three...

    Last 4th of July,my wife and I went in Glen Boulder and out Rocky Branch. I won't go into the reasoning behind it, but the road walk back to the car at Glen Boulder was miserable (and all up hill). Definitely, not recommended. Glenn

    Twin Mountains river crossing ?

    I just got back from a trip up the North Twin Trail to the 3rd crossing. At the first crossing, I took my shoes off and waded. Made it across the 2nd crossing with dry feet. Didn't try the 3rd but it looked easy. Took the bypass on the way out. Compared to the trail, the footbed is a bit...
