Heading back to the resort after a full day of exploring, we decided to drive through.. and over… Evans Notch.
It’s basically a straight up ride that cuts through a mountain to the other side.
We had it all to ourselves and saw some of the most vibrant color of our trip.
Pictures don’t do it justice, so ride along with us.
Just watch out for chipmunks.
I wish we’d been there a week earlier when the reds and oranges had been popping…
But it was still quite a show.
When we reached the top…
It thinned out a little.
Bare granite on the right…
Full foliage behind the sign.
And a mix on the left…. with the sun setting in the distance.
Heading back down was just as pretty…
And it was nice to see I’m not the only one who ❤’s the mountains.
Ah! The foliage!

Naturally, I keep saying “Evans Notch” and then laughing like Beavis and Butthead. I’m a very mature 43.

That last meme was absolutely hilarious, no pun intended. And I was going to ask, who is Evan and why is his notch on public display? lol

We did some hiking in those areas. We went several years on hiking trips. The easy hikes are difficult. At least for us. But I just love NH. The air is so fresh.

Agreed. Some of the trails they say are for beginners leave us breathless.

Beautiful drive through the mountain, though I was sure we were going to crash into the right side of it at times! Gripping! Mona
