Comments
Comments: White House, Liberty Springs, Franconia Notch

Left around 630 from basin. Took White House and then grabbed connector trail about .3 in then connected with White House. Snow was packed. Bad micro spikes on from start but could have likely managed until reaching tent Liberty spot near Franconia ridge. Clear skies on both summits with clouds coming in.
Fortunate to meet @greenskirt Monica on flume summit and great information on way back to Liberty. Hope to see you out there again.
Little less packed on traverse between flume and Liberty but made it with micro spikes and some sliding.
Smooth travels down. Great day.
