Fantastic weather day on Franconia Ridge. Old Bridal Path is in great shape and we made it quickly to the hut. The Ridge is easily traveled and even though it gets crowded, always a great hike. Franconia Ridge over to the junction of Liberty Springs is a little over grown in places but still easily traveled. Liberty was a great end to the day as the summit was much quieter and always has great views. Liberty Springs just seemed to go for ever and taking the bike path back to the car was a little long as well. All in all, a great day! |
