| Saturday, the 29th, we're going to Mt Chocorua on Rte 112 via Champney Falls Trail for a 9 am start time. The parking area is about 1.3 miles east of Bear Notch Road. This moderate hike is 7.6 miles, with 2250' of elevaton gain, and a book time of 6 hours. It has spectacular 360° views! Sunday, the 30th, we're hitting the Kinsmans via Lonesome Lake, Cascade Brook, Fishin' Jimmy and Kinsman Ridge trails. Meet at the Lafayette Campground parking lot I-93 on the south (left) side at the wooden bridge and picnic table. Round trip is 10.0 miles, 3550 feet of elevation gain, and a book time of 7.0 hours. We'll be staying longer as McRat has once again decided to bring ice cream sandwiches for distribution to the A.T. thru hikers! 48 ice cream sandwiches will be given away, 1 for each 4000 footer in NH! All our hikes will be a moderate paced, mixed company hike, with tons of spectacular views, stops for water, rest, food, and a visit to the Lonesome lake hut to treat the croo with something most special. Hope you can join in on the fun. As always, let me know if you are joining us. All the best, Mtn Magic
