Max # People: 8

Trip Guiding / Event Fee: No, I will not be asking participants for money

Difficulty Level: Strenuous

Please join me for this challenging 12 mile loop hike to the summits of Whiteface (4015') and Passaconaway (4060').  Both peaks are tree-covered but there are views from ledges close to each

...
Driving directions to the location and spot to meet at:

Take Rte 25 (from the east in West Ossipee or from Moultonborough to the west) to Route 113 (to Tamworth, NOT North Sandwich).  At the 4-way intersection in Tamworth village, continue straight ahead onto 113A (Chinook Trail) to Wonalancet.  At 6.6 miles from the village, you'll pass the Wonalancet Chapel and come to a sharp left in the road; turn off to the right onto Ferncroft Road.  Drive in as far as the signs that say "No public parking beyond this point."  Turn right here at the hikers logo sign into the Ferncroft parking area.  There'll be a sign board with a large map of the Wonalancet Range and plenty of parking.  It wouldn't hurt to consult Googlemaps before you head out.
