Mount Carrigain,
New Hampshire, White Mountains,
NH
This trip is primarily a training hike for those participating in the AMC Presidential Range Hike (PRH), but others are welcome, space permitting. Mount Carrigain has a well-earned reputation for fantastic views into the heart of the Pemi, both from its summit tower and the open ridgeline leading up. We'll visit it via a straightforward out-and-back, covering about 10.6 miles and climbing 3450 feet. Our pace will be moderate but steady, and we expect to finish in about 7-9 hours. The main goal is training with a full multi-day pack over White Mountain terrain with plenty of climbiing, but we certainly will pause to enjoy the view if the day permits. Participants are required to bring a mask to wear during any emergency or similar situation that requires people to be within close proximity for an extended period of time. To address unforeseen challenges such as adverse weather, unacceptable trail conditions or excessive crowding, the planned trip destination, activity and/or meeting place and time may be modified. In that event, participants may elect to join in that activity or opt out.
COVID 19 Information: As of December 1, 2021 AMC requires volunteers be vaccinated or receive a negative PCR test within 72 hours of the start of an event. AMC relies on the honor system for compliance. Participants may be required to wear masks, provide proof of vaccination, or in the alternative a current (within 72 hours) negative PCR test as a condition of attending this event. For your personal safety, you should expect to be in the presence of vaccinated and unvaccinated people in all AMC settings and should make choices about participating accordingly.
