Why Franconia Notch, NH is Great for Hiking!
We live in the Groton Forest on the edge of the New Hampshire border near Franconia Notch State Park. We often head East to grocery shop and climb around some mountains. Hiking summits in the spring has many uncertainties. Will the rivers be roaring with snow melt off and barely crossable? Will I have to take my boots on and off a dozen times? Will the clouds build at an exponential rate at the summit dumping snow on us?
In early spring we went hiking in Franconia Notch State Park in New Hampshire. We were pleased to have our day off and nice weather correspond. Here are some shots along the Ridge Line Trail where we summited Mount Lafayette.
These same booking resources are the same exact ones we use to find deals and acquire points for more travel.
I will never recommend to get a credit card unless you are 100% solid to pay it off in full every month. If you will and are going to be making some big purchases, this Chase card is the same exact card we use and it offers great travel points and perks.

WOW!!! My legs got tired just thinking about that climb! And what a view! How high is Mount Lafayette?
It was a bit of a hike. Mt. Lafayette is 5249 feet. Not bad for east coast mountains. 🙂
