At 1.5 miles there is an amazing view of Franconia Ridge and the Notch from the Cannon Cliffs. Just below this cliff was where the "Old Man in the Mountain" used to sit. After a brief stop on the cliffs we continued on to the peak. The trail to the peak has some steep drop offs and quickly with more amazing views. Once on the peak you can climb to the top of the summit observation tower for more amazing views. On this day we could see all the way into Vermont. We also took a little jaunt to the top of the ski trails. Given the amount of snow many people had either hiked up with skis or skinned up the trails to ski down. I wish I had thought to bring my skis. I was really bummed with the shortened ski season so I was jealous of all the skiers heading down the mountain.

One Love in Lincoln, NH is one of my favorite places to go out to eat when we're in town. One Love is located inside the historic Henry Paper Mill, which makes for truly unique surroundings while you're enjoying a delicious meal with a good brew. During the warm spring, summer and fall days they have plenty of outdoor seating. I love the selection of lagers and pilsners on tap. My favorite is the Norther Lights Helles Lager.
