Hike to Bingham Falls

12/26/16

I visited Bingham Falls in the summer with my family. We brought our swimsuits and walked the short distance down to the falls. It was very crowded with other swimmers that day and the rocks are slippery- so use caution especially if you have small children. The water was (as expected) chilly, but it was lots of fun! Some people brought towels and were sunbathing on the rocks.

Mt. Mansfield via the Long Trail

12/26/16

An alternative ascent is to take the Stowe gondola. It takes you about 2/3 of the way up the mountain and from there it is a short but steep scramble up large boulders and rocks to the top on a well marked trail. When you reach the top you join with the Long Trail and it is a short distance to the summit. We hiked the Long Trail down to the bottom and then it was a short walk along the road to reach the parking lot where we had started near the gondola.
