HandyRandy and I decided a few months ago to try winter hiking for the first time in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and it has been a success and quite an adventure. We met several hikers but one in particular wanted a report of our last two days so here it is:
We went up Crawford at lunch Wednesday, and set up the hammocks just below the Nauman tent site to block the winds that were coming.
Thursday we left at 8:30am and hiked 8 hours to the top of Mount Washington, had dinner and left at 6pm to make it back by 11:45pm but yes winds were probably at 45mph, but thank goodness it wasn’t too cold. We had planned on staying up there today but the wind driven rain got everything wet so we hiked back down in the rain. This is the end of our trip. It’s been awesome but that last bit was quite tough.
