Comments
Comments: Amazing day! Fun to take this circuitous route just to sit on the north slide and explore the (Waterville Valley) Flume. Saw almost nobody until I got on the slide. THEN it was a BLEEP show!!!! A half-dozen small groups heading up when a small group started to descend - their leader explaining that "Carter Dome and the Wildcats are right there in front!!!!!" - um, OK?????? Fun to watch the carnage as I enjoyed my lunch on the slide.....

From there, had fun poking around the woods and then revisiting the fun little flume. It was a bit slippery on the rocks - I went up past the vertical walls - never went that far up before - it's really pretty and neat in there!!!!!

Livermore Pass was its usual swampy self!!!!

So much fun!!!!
