Stories from the hills of Western Maine
"...the hills of western Maine,.....where the subtle matters and the spectacular distracts."

Franconia Ridge
The blog will be quiet for a few days, as I do a volunteer stint this weekend at the Applachain Mountain Club's Greenleaf Hut
The hut is located just below the summit of Mt. Lafayette which is the northernmost mountain on Franconia Ridge.
The last time that I climbed up Mt. Lafayette was three years ago with Ethan and Molly. That day was perfectly clear and our view from the summit stretched from Vermont's Mt. Mansfield in the West to Maine's Bigelow Range in the East. Weather.com predicts a clear weekend and cool nights this time as well.
Without a doubt, I will return next week with lots of stories to tell and pictures to share.
