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 [...]
Archives for 4000 Footers
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 [...]
The Wildcat-Carter Traverse
This fourth of July weekend has been targeted for quite some time now for us to tackle a few more 4000 footers on our list. We had another visit planned to AL and UP’s condo in Bartlett, NH and we had been debating which hike we were going to do. For a while we contemplated [...]
North and South Hancock
It’s been a while since I last made a post on this blog, which is now becoming more of a status report for our quest to complete the 4000 footers of the White Mountains. I’m back today to report that we have not given up, and that yesterday we knocked off two more mountains on [...]
Mounts Tom, Field, and Willey
After our recent Labor Day weekend trek up North and South Kinsman, Katy and I had completed 7 of the 48 4000 footers in New Hampshire. In the hopes of getting to double digits before the winter settles in, we planned a visit to AL and UP’s condo in Bartlett, NH for Columbus Day weekend [...]
