We'll follow a herd path to Fischer Mountain which provides good fall foliage views to Franconia Ridge. The ledges of Fischer Mountain can be viewed from Dickey Mountain. After parking near a Forest Service gate, we'll follow a logging road leading us to the herd path. The hike includes going up a series of ledges and occasional scrambles.  Hike distance approximately 4 miles, Elevation Gain 1509 Feet Book time Average: 3 hrs

Because the trailhead [or lack thereof] is difficult to find, we'll be meeting at the Campton Post Office on Exit 28 off I-93. As you get off the exit, turn towards Waterville Valley and you'll see the Post Office after Dunkin' Donuts. We'll be driving a blue FJ Cruiser. We can carpool from here.
