Mt Carrigain is a classic hike, for all the right reasons. But is the Desolation Trail… desolate? Is there something more?
A magical day in late springtime? On the Kancamagus Highway? Of course! Greeley Ponds has all the magic you could want.
Wildflowers on Mt Sunapee — spring has sprung! It was certainly worth coming back for a second hike on this fine mountain.
Planning an easy hike means not disregarding buzzwords. But taken slowly, every cliff can be climbed.
The last of winter hiking for this season saw me heading out toward the Sawyer River along an old rail bed.
