Danielle Lehmann: Highland Center and Crawford Notch


Crawford Notch is just one of many stops that hikers can make along the (more than) 2,000 mile long trail. From reviews, this certain spot is one of the best along the trail and offers free equipment rentals for almost anything that a hiker would need at any time of year. This area brings in many different types of people - adults, families, teens, schools, scouts and leadership groups. The house itself practices green building and maintenance - even the plants that had been on the site when they built the lodge nine years ago were relocated and replanted for education use. Trail names originate when someone on the trail either gives themselves a name or when one is given to them (mostly when someone else gives it to them) because of a quirk, story or event that happened while on the trail.
