We had planned a week in Franconia New Hampshire (White Mountains), specifically to hike the Franconia Ridge Loop. But nature threw us a curve ball, so we went with our backup plan and found a few cool things to do in the area around Franconia Notch.
0:00 - Welcome
0:05 - Old Man of the Mountain - A memorial for a collapsed rock formation resembling a face
1:03 - The Basin - A 15,000 yr old granite pothole
2:17 - Artist's Bluff - short hike to amazing views of echo lake
4:13 - Cloudlands Falls - hiking to beautiful cascading waterfalls
5:24 - Kancamagus Scenic Byway - amazing drive on a scenic byway
6:00 - Boise Rock - it's a rock, but it has a story!
6:45 - Final thoughts

Cheers!

What a fantastic ridge climb! I live in ma. and used to work 4 on, 4 off so almost every 4 days off I was hiking! Loved that area and was hiking in Franconia about 3 weeks before the old man fell. Great video. Going to see what else you guys have bveen up to.....

You guys always find such beautiful places to hike and explore. I'm sure that community's heart sank when the old man's profile crumbled. Nice that they were able to recreate the experience somewhat. Yes, great idea to visit in the fall. I'm sure all of those trees are fantastic with their full autumn splender! And yeah, Boise Rock. Definitely sounds like Star Wars!!! LOL

We really enjoy staying at Lafayette Campground. Access to the trail heads for the ridge loop hike is just a short walk from the campground. The ridge trail is amazing!!!

Great video and information! The northeast is the one area of the country we haven't traveled. We hope to soon!

Thanks!! We were pretty apprehensive because we enjoy the freedom of not having to book any campgrounds out West, but for the most part we're enjoying the NE!

Looks so peaceful at all the places! What was the hike you didn't get to do that you wanted to do?

@FarFromOrdinary 2 жыл бұрын

The hike was the Franconia Ridge Loop! A grueling 8+ mile with 4k ft of elevation gain, but most of it is along the alpine ridges with 360 degree views! Ughhh!! _raises fist at sky_

What about lonesome lake. Cool little lake halfway up the mountain

That's such a tough one to answer! We really loved the area around Franconia.

I am sorry but the profilers do not do the Old Man justice. I just look up and miss an old friend. Artist Bluff is fun for the hike but not for the view. If you are going to do the Franconia Ridge Loop in the Fall, pack for Winter. You will be exposed to the weather for a couple of miles. It can and has snowed on the Ridge in October.

Great tips! And yeah I bet Old Man is missed.
