Mount Liberty (4,459 feet)

Mount Liberty's Summit

Mount Liberty and it's rocky jagged summit is located on the Franconia Ridge Trail with magnificent views into Franconia Notch and the Pemigewasset Wilderness.

Trails I've Hiked:

-Liberty Springs Trail: 3.2 miles, 3,050 feet (via Franconia Ridge Trail). The trailhead can be located by a short walk from the Flume Visitor Center via the Whitehouse Trail off Route US 3.  The trail has some rough footing and ascends moderately to steeply at times especially the last .3 miles from the Liberty Springs Campsite to the Franconia Ridge Trail.  The trail is below treeline the whole way and  you're protected from the nasty weather until just before reaching the summit.
