We started hiking from the Basin around 7:30am. We walked along the bike path, passed under I-93 at Lafayette Place, went up Old Bridle Path, summited Lafayette and Lincoln, and then continued along the Franconia Ridge Trail to the intersection with Liberty Springs Trail. We went up the short section of trail (0.3) to summit Liberty and then headed back down to the Basin where we had parked, arriving at the car around 8pm.
