Can't find list ... "52 with a view"?!

So I know I've seen somewhere a list of hikes with rewarding view in the Whites, I think it was called "# with a view" like 52 with a view or something like that...

Has anyone else seen it or am I just crazy?

Ultimately I'm looking for a lot of short autumn foliage hikes with great views overlooking forest...

Thanks,
w7x

That's the one...thanks!!!!

Anyone have any short hikes they might want to add???
 
There are things I'm not sure I understand...That means a poor Canadian like me would not be accepted in the club ?! Also, we are not allowed to solo hike any of the peaks...Does it need to be a club guided trip, etc.?
Anymore infos on that ?
 
There are definitely some smaller hikes to add. Since Smarts is on there, which doesn't have a natural view, just a firetower, that reasonably brings in a ton of smaller hikes that afford a great view for the same reason. My local favorite, albeit right over the border in Vermont, is Gile Mountain.

Moose Mountain in Etna and Holt's Ledge in Lyme are worth the trip.

Peregrines often nest on Holt's, so respect them with a good pair of binoculars.

not the kind of "list" you go out of your way to chip away at, but it's good stuff to know for those travel-home days, get a quick half-day hike in while you're in the area

This is a very nice list - thanks. Is this also from the Over-The-Hill Hikers of Sandwich, or a private undertaking? It includes a number of great view peaks I'd seen on no list except the Table of Contents of Scudder's View Guide, and others (like Peaked-Middle in the Green Hills of No. Conway) that I would have bet couldn't possibly be on any list.

Exactly, and I've done quite a number of these just on that basis. Thanks again.
