Silver Cascade, Crawford Notch, White Mountains, NH.

This beautiful cascade is not difficult to get to, unless you consider the perils of getting hit by a car. Silver Cascade runs underneath Route 302 at the top of Crawford Notch. Being that it's right at the side of the road, it's usually mobbed with people lined along the bridge railing, climbing over the rocks, ambling across the road, all while trucks and cars come over the crest of a hill to the left with only enough time to smoosh the brakes. It may not be solitude, but it is gorgeous.
