Part 2

From the top of South Baldface, we returned back down to the top of the Ledges and then took Slippery Brook Trail over to the Knob and down.

More food for the hungry hiker: wintergreen berries. There were a lot of these before the trail reached the Knob.

Way in the distant haze it looks like Mount Chocorua.

An old stone wall hidden back in the woods. Imagine, it was once farmland here.

Back near the bottom: Emerald Pool. It is a very popular swimming spot in the summer. The water is very, ah, invigorating.

A view of South Baldface from the road near the trailhead. The shelter is in between the hill capped with conifers and the base of the Ledges (above the "o"). South Baldface summit is in the middle, and the Knob (looking very high from this perspective) is just to the left. (Click on the road link to see the Google Street View.)

I hope you enjoyed the views.

Have I said before, this might be my favorite hike? We return again and again over the years.

Definitely enjoyed the views. And the water. And the lovely colors on the paths. Beautiful.
