Terrific morning - always fun to revisit Welton Falls - that part was with the New Hampton Community Church's sub-group of mixed ages - we hung out at the falls for quite a while and enjoyed the foliage. Foliage is mostly golds/yellows with the occasional red here and there. Later, I headed up the Holt Trail to Grand Junction to take a look at Elizabeth Falls - looks possibly skiable - which explains why I've seen ski tracks coming out of there towards the grand jct bridge! |
