Thoughts on doing this hike tomorrow?

About me: Experienced summer, fall and winter hiker but haven’t done much in spring (I think the only spring hike I’ve done was Imp trail). I’ve got 16 4kers under my belt. I’ve done Franconia Ridge twice but never in the spring.

Weather.gov/ NOAA shows very little chance of rain/snow with wind chill of 20 degrees. I’ve got winter gear and micro spikes packed. I guess my biggest concern is slick rock and deep water crossings.

Most recent trail report is from 5/7 and looks like it’s flowing fast but crossable.

My plan is up Falling Waters down Old Bridle. I’m not normally too proud to bail but I don’t like the idea of going down Falling Waters.

Thoughts? I’m open to suggestions.
Thanks!
