The next day we explored a hidden gem of a smaller mountain that few people hike. Here's a link to the photos I took: http://outdoors.webshots.com/album/556957621rkjAaT

Originally this hike had been planned for the Saturday before Xmas, but with the forcast calling for cold rain all day, we all decided to cancel. We'll be heading in via the Black Pond bushwhack, maybe back out that way too, or maybe the fisherman's whack or the actual trail if conditions...

I've only been hiking for 2 and a half years so far, and this was by far my biggest. Total hours spent on the trail came out to nearly 20 days. I started hiking in winter (which I now absolutely love to do :D ). I made many new friends on the trail and through the websites, even fell in love...

poor Doug, with you guys cancelling out completely and me not staying Saturday night I don't think he had any more customers that weekend :(

Mt Crescent should also be taken off the list. I was up there Friday and had to bushwhack a short distance through some thick trees to find the summit, which has a cannister. The cannister is a glass jar with a metal lid that is too rusty to remove

Day 4 - Mt Chocorua The plan for today was for una_dogger and MichaelJ to come up Friday night to stay at Lyon's and we were going to head up to bag Shelburne Moriah and Moriah. Unfortunately, the forcast called for lots of rain, so they cancelled their plans to join me. It was indeed raining...

Day 3 - Mt Crescent and Mt Randolph Starting off on Randolph Mtn Rd, I spoke briefly about the warm weather with someone who lived next to the trailhead. I then headed up the Mt Crescent Tr, following it to the southern junction with the Crescent Ridge Tr. Along the way I stopped off at Castle...

Day 2 - Cherry Mountain including Mt Martha and Owl's Head This would be my only non-solo outing. I had arranged with MtnMagic (and Ghistdog) and his friend Diane M for a 10am start on this peak that I had failed on my attempt to summit last winter. I had enjoyed hiking with Diane on my bagging...

Day 1 - Sandwich Dome Getting a late start Wednesday morning, I didn't find myself at the Sandwich Mtn TH until 10:30. The parking lot was very icy, so I started off with my stabilicers already strapped on. The initial brook crossing was rather high, but with my new waterproof boots I had no...

I rarely get the chance to head up north on weekdays, but with some vacation time left over from 2006, I decided to head up and hit some of the smaller peaks. Now that I'm nearly done with the 48, I feel more free to explore other areas that I'd been curious about for these last couple years. I...

Thanks for the great hike! I had a blast, especially all the butt sliding :D What a great way to wrap up a year full of great hikes :cool:

Mtn Magic and I will be climbing this group of peaks next Thrusday. I hope to come at it from the north, Owl's Head Tr, and descend to the west. Starting time is flexible. Anyone want to join us?

update still planning to be there those days. tentative schedule: Wed - below treeline redlining in the Northern Presis Thu - Cherry Mtn/Mt Martha/Owl's Head Fri - Crescent/Randolph loop Saturday - Hedgehog and Potash or Shelburne Moriah anyone interested? Dates can be switched to...

sounds like a good hike, I'm hoping to head up there in the coming year

I've got a few days off to start the year and plan to spend Wednesday to Saturday up in the Whites. My plan is to stay at Lyon's and dayhike areas to the north and east of Twin Mountain. Here's some of the locations I have in mind: Mt Cherry/Owl's Head - Owl's Head Tr to Martha's Mile...

Going for #46 this weekend. Heading up Gale River Tr to Galehead. If the weather (and my energy levels) cooperates, I'll be adding a trip to South Twin for the sake of a little red-lining. Start time will be dawnish... Anyone interested in joining me?

Great pictures Amy! It was a real treat to hike with you, even if we didn't make it as far as we had hoped.

I've got 4 or 5 people interested so far so there's still room if anyone else wants to join. Starting time is now set for 7:45am

For my 45th of the 48, East Osceola, I wanted to make it more exciting, so I put out the call to see if anyone wanted to join me to head up and over to Middle and West Osceola as well, and then to 'whack out to East Pond Tr for the return to the Kanc. Taking the bait was none other than...
