I haven't been hiking in NH much the last couple of years but am now trying to get back into the swing of it. This weekend I made plans with Dugan and Amicus to head up there. We were thinking of doing the traverse of Table Mtn and Attitash but found out that Bear Notch Rd is still closed, so...

I'm planning to head over to Mt Monadnock tomorrow but have not seen any info on VFTT about recent conditions. My guess is that I can make do with microspikes and carry crampons in case the bare summit is iced up. Does anyone think I will need snowshoes yet? Also, is the Halfway House parking...

I decided to head out to Evans Notch for some hiking last week. A few years back I had been on the NH side of the notch, traversing the Baldface-Royce Ridge with a bunch of RoTters. It was one of the most enjoyable hikes of my life, and I have longed to return since then. The long drive to get...

A few weeks ago, Dugan and I convinced PoisonIvy to join us on a traverse of Blueberry Mtn. She had been thinking of hiking Mt Tremont that day, but was happy to join us on our hike as she had been wanting to hike Blueberry Mtn herself sometime soon. Last weekend she was at our house for a day...

Thanks all for the input. It's much appreciated!

I'm thinking of heading up to Whiteface next weekend and would like to descend via the McRillis Tr to a spotted car at Whiteface Intervale. I've been told that it shouldn't be a problem to park at the Flat Mtn Pond TH (where we would come out via McRillis) as some people hike out to the pond in...

Yeah, me too. Doug and I were going to head up Adams until he found that warning. Now we're going to Moriah

Thanks for the input

With the forcast calling for less snow the further north you go on Sunday, I'm thinking of heading up to Cabot. I'm staying overnight at Shapleigh (after hiking Moriah on Saturday) and would like to get back in time for the Sunday meal. I've only been to Cabot once before, climbing from the Fish...

After the cancellation of the Mt Washington hike, Dougeh and I decided on a hike to Passaconaway. Looking for some downhill trailbreaking, we opted to descend the Walden Tr to Old Mast Road and got what we were looking for. Starting off in the parking lot/skating rink, we decided on our...

With the high wind forecast, dougeh and I have decided on Passaconaway for this hike. We're meeting at Ferncroft at 9am, heading up the Diceys Mill Tr to the summit. Our speed is about 1.25 mph. For the descent: A(mbitious) plan - Walden Tr to Square Ledge Tr, over Square Ledge, down Old...

cancelled due to high winds forcast

I've gotten PMs from a few interested hikers. Anyone else want to join in on the fun? The more the merrier :D

The Mt Washington forcast is looking great for Saturday: 10-20% chance of light snow showers, temps around 0 at 7am reaching low 20s in the afternoon, winds of 10-20 mph. So I'm thinking it's time for my first attempt at bagging a winter Presidential. I'd like to spot a car at Appalachia, then...

BobC and I split a room at Johnson's in Twin Mountain last weekend. It was $60 for 2 people. A small comfy room, hot shower and cable TV. Friendly owner and they welcome pets ($10 extra IIRC). I really miss Lyon's, but this is a good option in the Twin Mtn area if you can find someone to share...
