We're going to take the Falling Waters trail up to Little Haystack and then depending on weather/timing we may push on towards Lincoln. This will be a long hard hike---if we make it to Lincoln we'll have over 3000 ft of elevation gain.
This is an above treeline trip---we'll be using crampons and ice axes. Full skin coverage is mandatory (its supposed to be pretty cold and windy).
