![Mt Washington and Monroe via Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail, Twin Mountain, NH [OC]](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/08f69aef-34e3-4e06-8ac6-8d759e18f55c.jpeg){kind=link}
Hard, 9.96 mi loop
4,373 ft elevation gain
Hiked 8/7/25
The tallest peak in the NE and second on the eastern seaboard, there are a variety of ways to get to the summit. This route provides varying scenery and a good section of the AT. Although it didn’t pan out with the clouds, the sunset route down Jewell is the play, just don’t forget your headlamp.
A neat looking transition from the sloped exposed rock to a more defined boulder stairs path. Small waterfall flowing along the watershed.
From one peak to another. Mt Washington as seen from the peak of Mt Monroe. Well defined trail may be seen climbing its way towards the top.
Steep stairs but a well maintained trail of rocks to make it easier as you near the summit of Mt Washington.
Yeah, I really enjoyed my time there. What is it, 48 4kers I think? Hiked Mt Chocorua with a friend of a friend and I think that’s what he told me. Although I guess that is all of NH, probably a good chunk just in the Whites. Out of my time here in the Northeast, I think that area has been my favorite so far.
Yes, there are 48 in New Hampshire. There are a few more in Maine and Vermont.
You’re getting close to prime hiking season up there. When the trees are turning, the view from bald tops like Chocorua or Osceola is awesome.
Yeah, I’ve just started noticing a couple random trees turning here and there. I’ll bet when that all gets going it’s pretty spectacular.
