 | Comments: |
Muddy, wet trail as expected with the recent rains. I now understand why people complain about the Fishin' Jimmy trail, but I actually really enjoyed it and all of its different features (wood steps, ladders, bog bridges, steps cut into rocks, one iron rung). Had a nice stop at Lonesome Lake and Kinsman Pond. Beautiful views of Franconia ridge from the summits. Be sure to go past the summit of South Kinsman for a nice view. |
