Mt. Flume and Mt. Liberty: just the way hiking should be.

On Monday, July 7 2014 we returned to Franconia ridge. We ascended the Flume slide trail to Mt. Flume, then connected with Libery Spring trail for Mt. Liberty and the descent. On this trip, I think we encountered Andrew Thompson as he ascended Mt. Flume around 6am on his quest to break the record for fastest time climbing the 48s.

The geological survey marker for Mt. Liberty's summit, or maybe Mt. Flume's, maybe I shouldn't wait two months before I post these pictures.
