Lupine Fields Trek in Sugar Hill - 6/20/09

[RollingRock]

When the weather does not cooperate for a backpacking trip to the Bonds there is always Plan B. An afternoon drive on the backroads of Sugar Hill in search of lupines. Enjoy our musical slide show of lupines at their peak glory. (Press F11 for full effects)

Lupine Fields Trek Slide Show

That is one great slide show! The music was perfect.

The lupines are in bloom in the Adirondacks also. They were planted in the revegetation areas roadside in the Inlet/Old Forge area and now are a beautiful sight.

I watched one of your other slideshows and I've got a question. There's a shot of someone's arm pointing toward a ravine in winter. Where is that?

Thanks again for posting your show. It's a beauty.

The fields of lupine are something I look forward to every year, and your slideshow of it is fantastic. Curious where you found the olde cellar hole...would love to photograph that sometime!?!

I'm glad you liked the slide show! Let me which trip you are referring to so I can respond.

I found it off Carpenter Road by accident! We saw an opening off the road and walked over to check it out. We were surprised how big it was. And having it surrounded by lupines was 'icing on the cake.'

Outstanding! I am sure I have seen that cellar hole and the views towards Cannon and Franconia Ridge in a White Mountain calendar... Can't find the photographer right now though.

Beautiful slide show. Our first time ever in New Hampshire, my wife and I were just driving around somewhere near Mt. Washington, and we happened to come across the most beautiful meadow of lupine, with the mountains in the background. Took a photo of it which hung in our living room for 10-15 years. Now I'm wondering what happened to it.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful day with us!
