Hiked Mt. Monroe and Mt. Franklin. Note Mt. Franklin is not Little Monroe and is about 15 minutes from the second intersection of the Mt. Monroe Loop and Crawford Path. There is a herd path to the summit to the left of crawford path, a cairn marks the peak. Excellent views from the summit of Little Monroe and Mt. Franklin. Fun hike, busy out on the trails today, lots of friendly people enjoying the day. |
