Details Please???

A White Mountain Guide published by the AMC & available I'm sure on-line from them or EMS & other places is a must. Maps in the WMG are super also.

When are you planning to go? Winter, summer, Spring or fall
How far? With a name like NHhiker, I assume you do some hiking.
Day Hike or overnight?

I've been once or twice or 12 or 20 times.

You are asking about a relatively large, broad, and dangerous area (in summer and winter). :spin:

Pick up an AMC White Mountain Guide, or visit the White Mountain Server Page, and do your homework. Be prepared before you head up there as well!

Consider hooking up with an organized hike, rather than trying to plan your own. The NH chapter of the AMC runs a hike every July called, appropriately, the Presidential Range Hike, or PRH.
