Little Haystack Mountain, Mt. Lincoln, Mt. Truman, Mt. Lafayette , 05/22/11
Trails: Falling Waters Trail, Franconia Ridge Trail, Greenleaf Trail, Old Bridle Path
Comments:
Nice day for a hike with mostly cloudy skies, comfortable, and no wind on the ridge. Climbed through the clouds and got some great undercast views. Some neighboring peaks showed themselves from time to time.
Trail in great shape. Lots of evidence of recent trail work. Very small sections of monorail still left on Falling Waters- but avoidable. No need for any traction.
Stream crossings were running high, but rock hoppable. Poles helpful. Bugs on the summits only.
Lots of people out up on the ridge and at the hut. Nice hiking with Bobby and his dog from Search and Rescue. Oh yeah, nice hiking with CrazyBob as usual...
