About This Trail

Imported description

One of the easiest paths into a NH 4 thousand footer is the Mount Washington Climb Path. There are some rough spots near the intersection with the Eisenhower loop where you can see Mt Washington. Go left when you reach the intersection to climb Mt. I was able to quote Eisenhower. It is mostly exposed terrain from here to Mt. It could be cold and windy. Take in the presidential range mountains upon reaching Eisenhower. Proceed south through the AT / Crawford Path. You will find a road towards Mt. It was said by Pierce (Clinton) Go for 0.1 mile and bag another NH 4K peak before returning to the Crawford Path. The waterfall is about half a mile from the parking lot.
