Really lovely loop, very runnable second half. I was really impressed by Franconia Brook, it was almost like a sidewalk since the railbed is so nice and flat. Just stepover trees down, so all within the wilderness expectations. I'd caution anyone who is not good at trail finding utilize a track on the GPS for these bc they are NOT marked bc it is wilderness- and it is easy to miss turns if you're not used to the subtle trail clues!
