The trip report

Written by Bobcat

Enjoyed a sunny & warm Franconia Ridge traverse via the Greenleaf Trail to summit Lafayette & Lincoln and then continue along the ridge to (almost) Liberty then down Falling Waters Trail. Flags were proudly flying on Lafayette, Lincoln, & Liberty. After refueling at BearPond with a dinner of ribs & fajitas, we tagged Cannon via Lonesome Lake Sunday! Total distance was about 19 miles for the weekend! Beautiful late summer weekend!
