Yesterday was a warm, clear day here in the Northeast, which meant it was a perfect opportunity for Katy and I to get another hike in. With such a great day in store, we considered all of our remaining NH 4000 footers, including an above treeline hike up Madison and Adams, the long drive to [...]
Archives for 4000 Footers
Mount Garfield
Today, Katy and I checked another mountain off of our NH 4000 footer list: Mount Garfield. It’s been over a month since our last hiking adventure in the White Mountains, but yesterday it looked like we may be able to get out and get one done today. After a bit of a false start getting [...]
The Tripyramids
A few days ago, Katy and I were having fun with our NH 4000 footer list. Specifically, we were wondering how realistic it would be to complete the entire list by the end of this year, and we did this by attempting to map out an ultra-tentative master schedule of the remaining hikes. We did [...]
Mount Jackson Revenge!
After a fun hike and a great weekend over the New Year’s holiday, I wasn’t sure when the next opportunity Katy and I would get to knock another NH 4000 footer off our list. Most weekends during the law school semester are extremely busy. However, during this past week, Katy mentioned several times that she [...]
Mount Waumbek
With the fall semester over, the holiday family gatherings complete, and the spring semester not quite upon us yet, Katy and I decided to take a few days for just the two of us. We both have brand new snowshoes that we’d really like to break in, so we headed north and spent New Year’s [...]
Pierce and Eisenhower
It has been a summer of hiking for me and Katy this year as we’ve gotten halfway home bagging all of New Hampshire’s 4000 footers. We’re in the midst of a schedule shift now, though, as Katy has returned to law school for her second year and free weekend days have quickly become scarce. However, [...]
Mount Hale and Zipline Tour
This past weekend Katy and I took a mini vacation … to the White Mountains in New Hampshire … again. If you’ve been keeping up with this blog you will notice that this has been a frequent destination of ours this summer. Before the summer, when we had only summited 10 of the 48 4000 [...]
Liberty and Flume
After a very busy July, Katy and I thought it would be nice to take a weekend off from scheduled activities, and just leave one open for a change. We had already been hiking, swimming, kayaking or some combination of the aforementioned every single weekend in July so far. So yesterday we laid low, caught [...]
Whiteface and Passaconaway
We’ve spent a lot of time up in New Hampshire this summer, piling up 4000 footers, enjoying time at the big lake, and spending time with family and friends. This past week was no different. My family has a generally annual stay up at Lake Winnipesaukee in Moultonborough, NH and this year they were up [...]
Mount Osceola and East Osceola
Katy and I spent another extended weekend away earlier this week up at Lake Winnipesaukee with her family. It was a fantastic vacation with time spent swimming, boating, golfing, and relaxing. And since we were already well north in New Hampshire, we decided to throw in some hiking as well. We had originally planned on [...]
