White Mountains

We did an overnight backpacking trip near Lincoln, NH. The trailhead starts a few miles east of the Lincoln exit off I-93 and the Kancamagus Highway. It was a beautiful hike, with lots of gushing streams. The water was freezing!

The White Mountains are great for outdoor activities and beholding natural beauty. The roads themselves have lots of drive in scenic outlooks so don’t feel like you have to be in great shape to enjoy them.

The bigest tip I would have is to explore on line. There are many trails and areas that are FREE and amazing. There are also a lot of ones that have been heavily landscaped into groomed wilderness where they charge quite a bit to walk the trails. I hear good things about some but with so much to explore for free I wouldn’t bother.

...took place at the Notchland Inn, in the Crawford Notch. :)

A great place. There is so much to do from Clarks bears to skiing and of course hiking. A wonderful place.

good climbing at Cathedral ledge

Beautiful and accessible. Went hiking and skiing there years ago, need to go back. Use Crawford Notch as your launching point.

You better like winter sports

‘nuff said.

One of my favorite areas to visit on this Earth. I usually visit here in early autumn; I stay at a farmhouse and divide my time between driving around to all the little towns, sightseeing, and hiking.

Planning my return visit right now. http://wisdomtales.com/hiking
