Mount Lafayette, New Hampshire

Wow.  What can I say?  This hike both kicked my butt and was one of my favorite all-time hiking experiences.  We hiked up via the Falling Water trail and then cut along the Franconia Ridge trail and then the Old Bridle Path back down.  I was extremely glad that we hiked it this way.  It allowed for an upward scramble up the steepest portion of the hike (hiking down the slippery rocks would have been concerning).  It also let us see some beautiful views while on the way down the trail on the other side.
