Just talked to a ranger in the White Mountains who said the Franconia Ridge Loop is getting closed for repairs next month, maybe for the whole season.

Actually heard they're only closing the Falling Waters side for repairs, not the whole loop. Did the ranger mention a specific date?

My buddy got totally stuck last fall because @kevin_adams is right, only one side was closed. The park service just puts up a sign and you have to turn around, it's a real mess. They really need to give better notice online.

Yeah kevin_adams that's what I heard too about just the Falling Waters side. But honestly they never give exact dates, it's always "weather permitting" which means who knows.
