Jon and I summited Mt. Washington yesterday on what will probably be the best day for hiking up Mt. Washington on a weekend this winter!

The summit was amazing! Excellent crystal clear views, no wind, bright sun and bluebird skies.

Mount Katahdin is really awesome!

Before leaving ANP Jon and I decided to finish climbing up the Beehive Trail which is similar to the Precipice Trail but shorter!

Hurricane Larry was still lingering off the coast of Maine so Jon and I decided to return to the ANP loop road for one hell of a show!

We did the most challenging hike in the park!

There must have been a storm off the coast as the surf was pounding the rugged ANP cliffs with a thunderous roar and soaring waves that shot up high!

These canoe camping trips are absolutely our favorite way to kick off our vacation!

Jon and I hiked up Mt. Webster using the exciting Webster Cliff Trail with fun rock scrambles, few people, and met six AT thru hikers!

From the bushes at the outskirts of the pond, a magnificent view over the tranquil water is obtained!

First time here and now I understand why this place in Maine is always packed--Big Big Bang for your buck this peak!

From Mt. Martha, there are great views of the entire Presidential Range, Crawford Notch and Franconia Ridge!

Just a great day to go out to the lofty summit of Mt. Monadnock offering unobstructed vistas in every direction!

Perfect winter adventure! Epic sledding to be had!

I wouldn’t be surprised if Morgan shows more fresh water that can be seen anywhere in New Hampshire!

Incredible Wednesday on Mt. Potash!

Gorgeous hike on a beautiful sunny day to these two peaks!

We hadn't been on these peaks in a while and forgot how nice they are!

Great fall like temperatures on such a beautiful, sunny day!

Foliage seems to be at peak. The views were spectacular and it was a nice clear day with puffy clouds!

The Beaver Brook Trail is the most picturesque route to Mt Moosilauke as it follows along cascades for nearly a mile!

Jon and I have been climbing up Sandwich Dome this time of year using the Algonquin trail three years in a row. We highly recommend this approach!!!

Adventure awaits to those that seek it out – put this hike on an epic time recharging body, mind and spirit!

A fantastic hike up an urban mountain on a hot, hazy, humid day with the threat of thunderstorms later in the day!

Summer has arrived in the White Mountains at last!

If you like Welch/Dickey but not its crowds, you'll love Fisher!

We wanted to hike local with COVID-19 spreading fast so we chose Plymouth Mountain [2,187 ft.], which you can see from I-93.

Excellent day in the White Mountains with Jon!

Glorious day!

Magnificent blue bird day with gorgeous views of the fall foliage and nearby peaks!

Brilliant hike. If the weather cooperates, Mount Clay is an excellent destination and well worth it for a fine autumn day above treeline!

Our documentary of our 52 mile Zugspitze Arena and Wetterstein Mountain Hut Trek in Austria and Germany!

Reading the old AMC Hiking Guides, there was a herd path about 1/4 mile past the summit of Mt. Osceola that leads to Split Cliff.

Phenomenal day in the Presis! How often do you get temps in the 30’s, almost no wind, and be able to hike in just spikes car-to-car?

I love starting the New Year with a hike. HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone and best wishes for 2019!!!

What an EPIC Day! Undercast and most snow I’ve ever seen in early December!!!

The summit atmosphere is unique but it's something that adds to the magic of the Whites!

The river itself is shallow and flows over a gravel bed with wide gravel and sandy beaches for many stop offs for swimming and picnicking.

It is definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area!

For a city park, this is real gem!

What a great day! GO PATS!!!

With the first major snowfall this season, it seemed like a good opportunity to hike it!

This turned out to be a delightful woods hike, with good footing and some nice hardwood forest.

I was so lucky because the sun was shining and the views were amazing.

This peak is a keeper, a hike to be repeated in warmer weather when I can bring a picnic lunch and a few friends.

I must have done this hike at least 40 times and it’s one I never tire of doing.

Mt. Roberts is a nice hike with varied views from different spots to different directions. Mt. Faraway is worthless unless you're peak-bagging.

Today has not been anything but a perfect day!

Mt. Tecumseh is also known as the Waterville Valley Ski Area. It's the lowest 4,000 footer at 4003 feet.

Winter solo hike to the remote and frozen Greeley Ponds via Livermore Road!

To sum it up, this hike was a treat! I finally made another visit to Mt. Israel after many years.

Despite the heat and humidity, this was overall a great day. Mt. Waumbek isn't the most exciting hike, but the mixed scenery and terrain made it fun!

What a view from the fire tower! Lakes all around and peaks arrayed to the north along the Sandwich Range – a fine reward for so easy hike.

It was a fun hike! In the winter I like it because it's much easier on the feet, and the summit of Mount Liberty is a huge scary frozen rock mass!

The trail from Waterville Valley has been closed since Hurricane Irene in 2011 due to extensive damage and it recently opened in the fall of 2014.

Relaxing and easy 3.6 mile winter hike to enjoy a 30-foot gorge, cascades, red pines, beaver pond and more!

Unobstructed views of the spectacular rock formations!

We read that the Airport Mesa was the place to go for a sunset panaroma!

A great introductory trail to Red Rock Country!
