"Did Franconia Ridge Loop on Sunday, 11/17/19. It ended up being a really nice day. Pretty much sunshine all day. Was 11 deg at the base when we started, hit about 25 for a high on the ridgeline. There were pretty blustery conditions on the peaks only, in general it was fairly calm. Probably gusted to 20 mph. Several inches of snow, too soon for snowshoes. Used microspikes the whole way." — Alohabuffy • Nov 17, 2019

"Really beautiful weather. Good sunshine with temps in the 30s. We had the entire Webster Cliff trail to ourselves. Really enjoyed each and every sunny outlook/ledge. Heading over to Jackson, going against the grain as dozens made their way over to the cliffs. Lots of small but dangerous icy spots. Jackson was nice, but the descent trail was basically a puddle due to a lot of recent rains." — Alohabuffy • Nov 2, 2019
