12/14, Saturday. Rained most of the day. Went to Franklin Falls, hoping to see icicles. Too warm this winter. No icicles, nor black ice. The trail (mostly road) was covered with slushy snow. On the way back, more black surface (better traction). The waterfall looked cleaner. Less dramatic, and less people. A nice walk for a rainy day.
The road is closed, so added 6 miles to the 2 mile hike. Still fairly easy.
