Kinsman Range – August 19, 2012

Posted on August 19, 2012 by EdMoran Leave a comment

20120819Kinsmans-022s400
North and South Kinsman make a great destination as either a day hike or staying overnight using the Lonesome Lake hut as the base for day hiking. The hike from the hut to the Kinsman summits follows the route of the Appalachian Trail via the Fishin’ Jimmy and Kinsman Ridge trails.

When the weather is nice, the views of the Franconia Range over Continue reading→

Connie’s Way Ski Tour (Pinkham Notch) –February 21, 2012

Posted on February 21, 2012 by EdMoran

20120221ConniesWay--002s400
On a vacation day, I skied a solo loop from Pinkham Notch consisting primarily of Old Jackson Road (OJR), the Mount Washington Auto Road, and the Connie’s Way ski trail. I used waxless skis, no skins. Most of the route is not too steep and skins are not necessary, but with the firm conditions there were a couple of short sections on the OJR that were a bit of work to ascend.

Panther – Giant Ledge Backpack – December 29, 2011

Posted on December 29, 2011 by EdMoran Leave a comment

20111229FoxHollow-PantherBackpack-005s400This was a winter backpack from Fox Hollow to Giant Ledge.  We hiked over Panther Mountain on the way to the campsite and the views were excellent. While hiking we saw lots of wildlife footprints in the snow, including bobcat and coyote.

The temperatures were in the mid teens when we set up our campsite, but warmed somewhat overnight along with a new dusting of snow while we were sleeping. Continue reading→

Boy Scout Presidential Range Hut Hike, July 10 – 13, 2011

Posted on July 13, 2011 by EdMoran

I led a Boy Scout Troop, including some of the older scouts and their leaders on a planned 3 night trek through the Presidential Range in New Hampshire. The itinerary was to include stays at the Mizpah Spring, Lakes of the Clouds, and Madison Spring huts covering20110709-15NewHampshireHutHike-117s400 the entire range.

The first day we hiked to the Mizpah Hut via the Crawford Path from Route 302.

Arriving a little after lunch time the boys settled in and played cards while some of the adult leaders hiked over to Mount Jackson before dinner. The weather was very clear and the views north along our planned route from Mt Jackson were spectacular. Continue reading→

Peekamoose and Table Mountain – July 2, 2011

Posted on July 2, 2011 by EdMoran Leave a comment

A group of four of us hiked Peekamoose and Table Mountains on a warm July 4th weekend. At a little over 2600 feet elevation gain from the trailhead on Peekamoose Road, this is the greatest climb directly to a trailed summit in the Catskills, but it is a very nicely maintained trail with excellent viewpoints.

Mount Tom and Mount Field, February 23, 2011

Posted on February 23, 2011 by EdMoran Leave a comment

20110223Tom-Field-070s400
It was just Sean and I on this bluebird day and these were his first winter peaks. The weather was perfect with deep blue cloudless skies. Despite the forecast for windy conditions at the summits, the winds were rather tame.

Our route was to be a counter clockwise loop taking in Tom, Field, and maybe an out and back to Willey. We got a late start (a little after 10:30), and decided at the start that Willey wasn’t going to happen. Continue reading→

The Bonds – August 22, 2010

Posted on August 22, 2010 by EdMoran Leave a comment

We spent two consecutive nights at the AMC Galehead hut.

On Day 1 we hiked to Mt Garfield, then over to the hut via the Garfield Ridge Trail. After a very full dinner at the hut, we did an easy evening hike to the nearby summit of Galehead Mountain.

On day two we hiked out and back hike to Bondcliff Mountain, passing over South Twin and Mount Bond on the way and also making the side trip to West Bond. All of these peaks have great views, but the nearly 360 views of the Pemigewasset Wilderness from West Bond are among the most spectacular in the Whites. …
