It's beginning to feel a lot like Winter!


Trail intersection near the summit of Cannon. It's a winter wonderland! 

This past weekend I headed up to Franconia Notch for a solo hike, my first in a long time. It was also my first hike in wintry conditions since the previous winter. As I drove up 93 North, the snow started to fall, the wind started to whip, and I got extremely giddy at the sight of the snow covered mountains in the distance.

Along the Hi-Cannon trail on the way to the summit: Ladders and rocks galore!

I choose to do a quick loop up to Cannon Mountain and Lonesome Lake via the following trails: Lonesome Lake, Hi-Cannon and Kinsman Ridge.

The observation deck at the summit: No views today! Wind and snow instead!
