Winter Hike

Winter hiking is realy fun in the mountains, these photos below explain why better then words.

Below are photos from one Winter adventure with Johnny, Aurora, Ian and Joel up Frankenstien Cliff Trail to Arethusa Falls located in Crawford Notch.

Below is Ian Day on a random cool rock.

As you know Johnny and Aurora are quite the adventurous team.  So a mission to Arethusa Falls was no question after the heavy rain we recieved Friday.

Aurora a little muddy.

The trail looked like this most of the way up the mountain.  Beautiful colors like you dream about! 

Glen Falls

Johnny and Joel went on a exciting waterfall adventure bringing along Tiffany, Johanna, and Johnny’s Dad, John.  Drove about four hundred miles to see three really nice waterfalls of Vermont. This one is Glen Falls Located in Fairlee, VT.

Walking up the trail from the bottom of the falls on Glen Brook this is the first one you see. Its not big or powerfull, but it is realy cool.

The second waterfall which is just upstream is a perfect twenty foot horsetail flowing out of a ten foot gorge into a small green pool. Above that the gorge gets deeper, upto sixty feet on both sides, and there is a small manmade dam at the top of the gorge. 

Moss Glen Falls

We went to Moss Glen Falls, located in Stowe,VT. This waterfall is pretty big and carried some heavy power down this section below. 

Moss Glen Brook starts to cut the top gorge in the pic below. The cliffs are nearly one hundred feet tall on both sides of this narrow gorge, enough to make us all quiver and shake a bit when leaning over to peak the stream below.

Below is the first fifty foot tall waterfall

Then then second set is seventy-five feet with a nice slide into a spread out fan drop.
