Loon mountain 3d model3/17/2024 We didn’t see any bears on the ski slopes but had earlier that day. As we rode higher he explained what we were seeing all around us. The operator gave a nice narration about the history of Cannon Mountain and the area. The tramcar can hold up to 80 people but since it was a weekday afternoon we shared the ride only with about a dozen others. There is even an illustrated explanation of why he fell. The exhibit with its many wonderful photos and Old Man memorabilia filled in the holes of what we were trying to explain while driving through the Notch. I purchased the tickets to ride the Tram while Charlie showed them the Old Man of the Mountain Exhibit. We tried to explain to them our missing New Hampshire State Symbol, The Old Man of the Mountain. We all ‘oohed’ and ‘aahed’ at the sight of the mile long Cannon Cliff that is the west wall of Franconia Notch on our way to the Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway. We took a short walk around the water carved granite pool and we marveled at its swirling cold water that cooled the air and felt wonderful. On our way north we pulled off in Franconia Notch to see The Basin. The weather was warm and clear, perfect for visiting mountaintops. They were only here for a few days and they wanted to do as much as possible. We couldn’t have been happier to show them off. Katie and Scott, my husband Charlie’s sister and her husband, are from Wisconsin and they came to visit us and they wanted to see our White Mountains.
