Echo and Profile Lakes, NH - July 24, 2020


On our return from Mt. Washington, we stopped for a beautiful hike along Echo Lake then on to Profile Lake in Franconia Notch.  There we found a nice waterside park arranged so folks who didn't see the "Old Man of the Mountain" before it collapsed from the cliff face, could have the same experience.








The Echo Lake hike follows a gorgeous path

There is a profile at the far end of each of these posts. 
Depending on your height, you pick a spot and
line up the profile on the post with the cliff face.















Voila'!  It's the Old Man of the Mountain!






No surprise, the AT crosses near here
