Franconia Ridge on the western side of the Pemi

PemiLoop4848

  • Garfield Pond
  • Looking at a rock incline from the side.  It's much taller than it looks here, but it wasn't too hard
  • The steady rocky climb up Mt. Garfield
  • Looking south over the Pemi from the summit of Mt. Garfield
  • Franconia Ridge on the western side of the Pemi
  • The Twins and Galehead to my east
  • Galehead Mtn. is seen in front of South Twin Mtn.  Tonight's hut, the Galehead Hut, is the small light spot between the two
  • Mt. Washington and the northern presidentials try to peak out from behind North Twin Mtn
  • View north from the summit of Mt. Garfield
  • Owl's Head in the middle of the Pemi
  • The lines seen here on the side of the mountain are the old sled roads used by teams of horses pulling log from back when the White Mountain National Forrest was logged in the late 1800s early 1900s
  • The eastern side of the Pemigewasset Wilderness
  • View northwest from the summit towards Littleton, NH
  • Mt. Flume and Mt. Liberty have similar shapes that are distinct compared to other peaks
  • The Bonds.  These will be the last 3 peaks of this loop
  • Miles on the edge of the old fire tower base at the summit of Mt. Garfield
  • Franconia Ridge
  • Coming down the brook that is the Garfield Ridge Trail.  While water is running right down the trail and over the rocks, it's still drier than the last time I was here
  • At the intersection with the Franconia Brook Trail
  • Garfield Ridge Trail leaving the intersection
