Flashback Friday Doube Take - October 2011 - Franconia Ridge, NH

Where: Franconia Ridge, NH
Mileage: 8.9 miles
Elevation Gain: 3,900 ft
Peaks: Mount Lafayette, Lincoln, Little Haystack
Time: 6.5 hours
Views: Awe Inspiring, 10 out of 10
Wildlife: Didn't see much. Lots of people though.

This is an incredible hike in terms of views. When you reach the top and get to the ridgeline, it is an incredible feeling looking out around you. The climb to the top can be quite strenuous as it is a constant uphill climb. You'll want to make sure you train with plenty of day hikes before attempting this one and allocate plenty of extra time to hang out at the top and soak up the views. The top is also very windy so bring a jacket.
