After completing our adventure to Mizpah Spring Hut, there was still plenty of daylight left. Lynn 'hung out' at Crawford Notch while I went for another hike. Lynn took my picture at Crawford Depot.

I headed up the Avalon Trail, A-Z Trail, and then the spur trail to Mount Tom.

Next I made my way over to Mount Willey where I got another awesome view.

It was very steep as I descended on the Willey Range Trail. As far as I know this trail has the longest string of ladders in the Whites. (If anyone knows otherwise please let me know.)

If you want to virtually walk down a few of the ladders, check out this video clip.

I made my way down to the Willey House where Lynn was waiting for me.
