Quick hike up East Osceola then I headed to the southern end of Lower Greeley Pond (the outlook off the ski trail) - put my packraft in there and floated to the northwest beach area of that pond and portaged to the old shelter location on the southeast side of Upper Greeley Pond. Took out at the beach on the north end of that pond. Floated in each pond for a long while - enjoyed the vast "skyline" of Mad River Notch. Lower Greeley Pond was quite shallow with a few deeper trenches but a lot of vegetation. Upper Pond was quite deep and clear! Quite the crowds out today, even at the ponds. |
