Afternoon hike after hiking Cannon in the morning. Up Beaver Brook Tr. and down Gorge Brook Tr.. A big thank you to Dave (DOC) for the ride back around. Beaver Brook Tr. was wet and slick. Anticipating tired legs late in the day, cooler temps, slicker trail and possibly head lamping down the tricky sections of Beaver Brook I decided to go down Gorge Brook and hope for a ride. Gorge Brook Tr. mostly dry and nicely graded descent as usual. Excellent views this afternoon made up for lack of views earlier. Falls scenery was spectacular on the way up as well. Aahh back to work Monday. |
