Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Water is a bit higher than it was. Franconia Brook Trail crossings you will want your waterproof boots and poles as it may be difficult to cross without getting your feet in a few inches of water.  
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Not a lot of blowdowns but it is a bit difficult to follow Franconia Brook above 13 Falls. Tons of mud and water on Franconia Brook Trail. Lincoln Woods is also softening into a muddy slog.

Comments
Comments: Beware the north side of Lafayette - Very slick with wet snow on icy rock. I’d wear snowshoes between Skookumchuck junction and 13 Falls and Microspikes everywhere else.
