Peaks: Lafayette, Lincoln, Cannon Trails: Old Bridle Path, Franconia Ridge Trail, Hi Cannon, KRT Mileage: 13.95 ElevationGain: 6,260′ Weather: 38(F), Plenty of wind on Franconia Ridge Trail, 77% humidity, overcast with decent visibility GroundConditions: I used spikes all day and had very few issues aside from one full blown banana peel moment. There is still plenty of snow out there on the trail and it looked like there were a few soft spots/newish postholes that were quite deep. If you’re careful to step in the center of the trail it was plenty sturdy. Notes: Great day to get out there! Before I got going, I bumped into Chris Dailey & Kristina Folcik which was really cool! Super nice people who have put together some incredible trips & hikes. Out on FRT, I also bumped into Philip Carcia, also super nice & puts together incredible Projects/trips. You never know who you’re going to bump into out there!
