At 4200 feet, Mt Flume is southernmost on the franconia ridge. In top photo is our route along the ridge. Mt Lafayette - at 5250 the big guy - is in the clouds. Below.:  behind Ben, Lincoln and i-93 are just waking up.

A little bit later, Ben can mark his progress up the ridge from the valley below.
