"A hike for a Calendar Day. Headed up Liberty and Flume. The river crossing wasn't bad. I used microspikes to cross the icy rocks. Made my way up Liberty Springs Tr and found more significant snow and ice about .25 miles below Liberty Springs Tentsite. I reached the summit of Liberty, then headed over to Flume. Beautiful day for both peaks. Headed out the way I went in. " — newenglandwarrior • Dec 22, 2023
"Did a Semi-Pemi Loop backpack from the Lincoln Woods Trailhead up the Ossetian Trail and along the AT. Camped at Liberty Springs continued along the AT to Garfield summit and then down the Franconia Brook Trail to camp at 13 Falls then back down the Lincoln Woods trail. Nine summits in total with 26 miles and 6,800 feet of elevation gain. A three day trip" — Zardoz • Sep 6, 2023
"Went up the Osseo trail, which is a very fine trail for the White Mts. A little gray but warm. As soon as we summitted, lots of clouds streamed in quickly. Showers chased us down the mountain." — Alohabuffy • Jun 15, 2023
"Pemi Loop. 20 hrs, 2 minutes. 4 of us. Flume was the first peak, Bondcliff the last. We also threw in Galehead and West Bond for 10 peaks total. Got some blisters out of this hike. Glad to have finally done one. " — newenglandwarrior • Jul 1, 2022

"The last day of the year. I did an out and back on Liberty and Flume. I was amazed that I made it to Liberty without needing spikes. Not the best weather for views today. Heavy cloud cover." — newenglandwarrior • Dec 31, 2020
"I went for Liberty and Flume today. I was surprised I was able to make my way up Liberty without spikes. I put them on when heading over to Flume. I made excellent time coming back out. Some more Grid peak gains. I am now at 45 for November. " — newenglandwarrior • Nov 27, 2020
"Hiked up via Lincoln Woods to Osseo Trail to Franconia Ridge to Flume summit. Then over to Mount Liberty summit. From Liberty hiked down Liberty Springs Trail to the Basin parking lot. This was my number 47 and 48 out of 48 NH 4000 Footers. I was joined by friends Polly, Scott, and John. It was a rare warm early Fall day. The autumn colors are really coming through now." — dmcosker • Sep 26, 2020
"A Flume and Liberty hike. Molly and I headed up the AT and set camp at Liberty Springs Tentsite. We then hiked over to Liberty, bypassed the summit, and went for Flume. After tagging that peak, we headed back to Liberty and watched the sunset while having dinner from there. We then went to Liberty Springs for the night. I gained 2 more peaks for my August Grid." — newenglandwarrior • Aug 5, 2020
