Finished my 48! The trails were wet, but quite manageable. As my last hike was Owl's Head, this hike felt very crowded. The trail was well maintained. I felt like Falling Waters was less wet and slippery in comparison to Old Bridle Path. Parking was filling quickly as we arrived at 7. Nice views off Lincoln; Lafayette was in a cloud. |
