This hike was part of the three days of hiking I completed this past Labor Day weekend. I wasn't actually planning to visit Greely Pond. In fact, I was on the trail to hike Mount Osceola (I'll post that next). However it was only a short, 0.3 mile detour to Upper Greely Pond, so I decided to go for it.
The trail leading to Upper Greely Pond was simple enough, though it did require walking over log bridges and crossing streams along the way. Mount Osceola's East peak soars above the pond and is where I was headed next.
The two ponds, Upper and Lower Greely Pond (I only visited the Upper pond) are nestled inside Mad River Notch. The Greely Pond Trail actually leads all the way across to Waterville Valley, about 3 miles away.
