Ripley Falls - Easy Section "Waterfalls" - with Plymouth NH GS Juniors


********************************************************************************




May 27, 2019

The Plymouth NH GS Juniors seemed to have a great time hiking to Ripley Falls (Easy Section), a hike in Hart's Location that is 1.1 miles round-trip.  Due to an unfortunate mix-up among other events, the Troop and I didn't end up hiking the trail together, but we hiked it mostly apart and then I combined our pictures into this post.  Also, technical problems with my phone led Mom to take the pictures this time.  I was grateful to her for doing that.

As you can see, the terrain is, unsurprisingly, rocky and the grade is moderate.

You have to cross this railroad before continuing up the trail.
