Another great day out in the Whites. Put this one down for the extreme waterfall lover. Besides a lot of climbing, this hike features non stop waterfall action. On both the upclimb and the descent. The trail is the waterfall. Be prepared for that. It was incredibly refreshing. The spray and the breeze combined to make a natural swamp cooler. Definitely welcome in the heat.
