Description


Plan is to car camp at the Hancock Campground off of the Kancamagus Highway (Rt. 112), and then drive to various trailheads to bag a plethora of peaks during dayhikes.

The beauty of this trip is that we don't all have to do the same hike. It's also very possible to just stay a few nights, or even come along for the day. Anyway, I kind of have an agenda and am working towards my goal of completing the 48 list by the end of June, so I have some specific peaks in mind. But again, the beauty is anyone can do a different mountain(s) if they choose.

Below is my itinerary:

Saturday: Arrive around 8am that morning and secure campsite(s). I may actually arrive that Friday night. Regardless, once everyone arrives and camp is set-up, bag Mt. Tecumseh as a warm-up.

Sunday: Bag Cannon, North Kinsman, South Kinsman

Monday: Bag Mt. Lafayette and Mt. Lincoln.

Tuesday: Bag Mt. Garfield and Galehead Mt.

Wednesday: Wake-up, ship out.
