When we arrived in Littleton, we enjoyed a last meal at Burger King and got a wonderful ride with the rental car guy back up to Franconia Notch.
The thoughts circling through my head when we arrived at the visitors center this time around were quite differnt than those I was thinking a few weeks ago when we got off the trail for Mani...but my heart is ready to be back (even if my body isn't totally there yet).
From the notch, we headed straight up to Franconia Ridge where we hiked into the sunset above treeline...it was glorious.
But this is the Whites, so 10 minutes brought fierce winds and a socked in ridge line...exciting nonetheless.
We rolled into Green Leaf hut around 9 and the crew had mercy on us and allowed us to work for stay rather than camp in the storm...more on the huts and other such fun later. Happy trails!
