Haven't gone climbing in years, but one of my favorites back in the day was Zealand Falls. There is an AMC hut on the way to the summit, and I still remember that I had the very best bowl of veggie/barley soup of my entire life at that hut. If you've got a couple of days, check your AMC trail guide, and try to do Thoreau Falls and Zenith Falls as a loop. Somewhere along this trail I remember a suspension footbridge, of course I don't remember the trail names, but it made for a nice weekend hike/climb.
For an easy hike (less than 1/2 mile in) and nice pictures, Sabbaday Falls is a nice place to have lunch a little off the beaten path. If you don't want all the crowds at Rocky Gorge, this might be just the place...
Ya know what? I haven't heard about these. I am an AMC member and will have to check this out. Sounds good ! the only problem I have is if my dog will do the suspension bridge. Dog goes with me on every hike. That just the way it is. Thanks for the info Valerie.
Most people have seen these all over the state. It's known as "Rock on Rock." Most hikers pay no attention, or think that rocks just ended up this way because of landslides, glaciers, or even ancient volcanic eruptions.
The truth may be different. Most likely, this rock was placed here some 3-4 hundred years ago by an American Indian. This particular rock points in the direction of a stream, which runs out to the baker river.
I see them all the time. Some are made with a few rocks formed in an arrow, and others are just rock on a rock. This one is on Rattlesnake mountain in Rumney.
And now, you'll notice them too.

Is there a picture here? If so, how come I can't see it.
MFWIC - I can't see your pictures either - If I right click where the picture is supposed to be and check properties - it may be that the site you're using isn't compatible with City-Data.
Try uploading to photobucket.com and then putting the link in - Or..I've also been able to put thumbnails that you can click on by uploading an attachment to a message here in the forum.

Rock on rock
not a link, not even a "broken" image. Anyone else?
