Hike: Southern Presidential Traverse

Marshfield Station to Crawford Notch, Monroe through Jackson.


Interested? Questions? Respond here or send a PM.


:D
 
PM's have been flying back and forth on this hike.

Here are the details:

We're planning to stop by The Highland Center at 7:00am or a little after for final hike prep and to spot a vehicle either there or at the Webster-Jackson trailhead a short distance south on Route 302.

We’ll shoot for the lower lot at Marshfield Station between 7:30 – 7:45am with an on-trail target of 8:00am.

As of now, Bobby has confirmed to be in on the fun with Sue and me. There may be a couple others to join as well.

The latest from the National Weather Service seems to indicate we’ll have terrific sunny conditions at least to mid afternoon (possibly as far as Pierce, after that we’re in the trees).

The plan is to hike Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail to LOC Hut, Crawford Path south to Webster Cliff Trail, Webster Cliff Trail to Webster Jackson Trail (on Jackson), and Webster-Jackson to Crawford Notch. We’ll also hike the summit loops for Monroe and Eisenhower on the way through.

Hike specs: 12.7 miles, 4060 feet. Book time comes in at 8hr 24 min but based on the conditions we ran into yesterday, it wouldn't surprise me if we came out around 7:00 - 8:00pm. Below LOC Hut and between Mizpah and Jackson will probably take extra time.


:D
