We begin the hike as a group of Four with the addition of Mike D in the morning of Sunday, the 4th of July.

The hike to the Bridal shelter on the side of Canon was not too bad - pretty much a straight shot and with luck, no one claimed occupancy.

A hot and humid day again but the waterfall and coooold pool next to the campsite provided a nice chill.

Back to Hikes

Aggie was a ball, another hiker's dog keep taunting him by pee'ing near our campsite while he was tied up..hee hee hee

Mike showed up in the AM, and we bushwhacked up the backside using local trails....bugh - humid and lots of black flies. Finally, switch back after switchback we reach the top of Mittersill; we send Ed & Mike to Canon for some food, they come back with chesseburgers ...... yummmmy! but with +$20 you'd think there'd be more. :-)

We hike down a bit to the old Mittersill ski house. We set up camp and prepare for the Franconia fireworks with our bagful of nips - Salut!
