Lakes of the Clouds
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lakes of the Clouds are a set of small ponds located at the low point of the ridge (5025 ft MSL) between Mount Monroe and Mount Washington in the White Mountains of the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The Lakes of the Clouds Hut, a rental hut and lodge for hikers operated by the Appalachian Mountain Club, is adjacent to the lakes, facing west toward some spectacular sunsets.
Lakes of the Clouds may be reached by hiking from Marshfield Station, on the Mount Washington Cog Railway, via the Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail (in approximately four hours). The area is also traversed by the Crawford Path (part of the Appalachian Trail) and the Dry River Trail.
