Great hike. Packed snow all the way to Lafayette summit. Mixed snow, ice and bare ground on Franconia Ridge. Packed snow on Falling Waters. Great hike with undercast, high winds above treeline approaching Lafayette and on summit. Moderate winds and warm on ridge and Falling Waters. Windy at low elevations. |
