A stream runs through winter woodland, with a stone clapper bridge crossing it.

Photo of me standing on the mountain ridge. I am wearing sunglasses, a beanie cap, and a blue coat. I am holding two trekking poles in my right hand. The ridge is covered with snow and a peak (number two in the sequence) is behind me. Clear blue skies overhead with some wispy white clouds. I had just begun hiking down the saddle of the first peak and was on my way to the second peak (my back is to the second peak as I posed for this pic). Franconia Ridge, White Mountains, New Hampshire. The first peak was Mt. Lafayette which I turned around and faced for this pic. The second peak which I was heading toward (and is behind me) is Mt. Truman.

Photo of my first view of the first peak that I was heading toward on my initial ascent up to the mountain ridge. I had already snowshoed up the mountain for nearly two hours and it still seemed so far away! The peak is shown off in the distance as part of the ridge. In the foreground are short evergreen trees as viewed from the trail. The terrain is shown to be sloping steeply away from the trail toward a valley which was between the trail and the peak at this point. Sky overhead is solid blue. Mt. Lafayette as viewed from Old Bridle Path.

Photo of first peak as viewed from the third peak. (The second peak is lower than the first and third, allowing the first peak to be seen easily). The ridge is covered mostly with snow with some rocks showing. Blue sky overhead with white wispy clouds. Mt Lafayette (peak 1) as viewed from Mt. Lincoln (peak 3). Peak 2 is Mt. Truman.

Photo of trail in snow-covered forest. The trail is a trench in the snow, pounded out by many hikers wearing different types of traction devices on their feet (snowshoes, microspikes, ....). Evergreen trees surround the trail and are covered with snow. Old Bridle Path.
