 | Comments: |
Started on Friday morning the 19th to mostly clear skies. Peaked Bondcliff (8.4miles) in four hours. Bring a bike and ride the 2.6 miles along Lincoln Woods Trail. Up and over the Bonds, Twin South and Galehead Hut for some water fillup. Camped in between Galehead and 13 Falls Tentsite and saved $8.
13 Falls doesn't have any water so I boiled up 3 liters for the day. Lincoln Brook Trail after the falls doesn't have much traffic so you need to pay attention at times to find the trail. Hot climb up Owls Head and then an easy but quick end to the hike from there back to Lincoln Woods. |
