Chris and I took the same day off to enjoy some above tree line goodness. And boy was it good! Neither of us had ever been up the Lion Head Trail, a must do for anyone that hasn't been there. Amazing views and we had the most incredible views into Tuckerman from the Lion Head all to ourselves! Gorgeous fall day, bright sun and light winds. The trails were mostly dry until after Pierce. Opted to go over Franklin and we were both very happy that we did. Thank you Chris for another amazing day in the mountains with you. We are so lucky! |
