Notch 2 Notch, 2010

White Mountains, NH, August 18-21, 2010

Last year we backpacked 52 miles from Pinkham Notch through Carter and Mahoosuc Notches over to Grafton Notch in Maine. It was the backpacking highlight of the year for those attending. Come join nine others this year as we traverse from Crawford Notch over to Franconia Notch. This is a hut-to-hut trek, so the load on your back will be light and the lodging warm and comfortable. This trip is expected to cost $300 for hut accommodations (includes full breakfasts and dinners).
