Mount Isolation via Glen Boulder Trail




Another weekend starting off with favorable weather and promising a great day for hiking. The plan for today was to join fellow hikers Denise and her brother Roger for a hike to Mount Isolation (4003') via the Glen Boulder Trail and Davis Path. Denise is very close to completing her 48 4,000 footers and Roger has already completed them.

Tuckerman to Washington Down Nelson Crag


Today I planned a hiking route that would keep me above treeline for a good portion of the hike to take advantage of the good weather that was forecast. This would be a loop hike, up the Tuckerman Ravine Trail to Mount Washington down the Nelson Crag Trail and across the Old Jackson Road back to Pinkham Notch parking lot.

Up Flume Slide Down Liberty Spring


After watching the weather all week I decided it would be a great day to go up on Franconia Ridge and enjoy the views from the summits of Flume and Liberty. Today's hike would start at the Whitehouse Trail to Liberty Springs Trail turning onto Flume Slide Trail across the Franconia Ridge Trail and back down the Liberty Springs Trail.
