Hiking The Great White Mountains
The White Mountains of New Hampshire are a hiker’s paradise. Too often overshadowed by bigger mountain ranges, such as the Rockies, and more famous natural locations, such as the Grand Canyon or Yellowstone, the White Mountains sit quietly in the Northeast of the United States, waiting to be explored.
Mount Washington – Windiest in the World
The hike from the bottom to the summit is 8-10 miles and 4000 elevation gain, should you choose to do that. But the hikes from the summit to any number of destinations is at least as much fun. They give you plenty of warning about safety, weather and hiking conditions. Heed them, there’s a reason! We got mighty soaked on a short hike we took and were turned back due to lightning. Guide service (equipped with observatory weather info) is available through the Mount Washington Observatory.
