Overview

Please join and enjoy the phenomenal views from Franconia Ridge. We will plan to hike 9.3 miles with 3809 ft elevation gain at a moderate pace. Franconia Ridge is arguably the most beautiful day hike in the White Mountains. We will ascend the highest mountain outside of the Presidential Range, Mt. Lafayette. We will hike steep, rocky terrain, cross several waterfalls, and be rewarded with sweeping panoramic views on the open ridge. 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

As an experienced leader with the AMC Boston Chapter, I excel in guiding hiking expeditions across all four seasons of the year. I lead both single-day and multi-day hikes, where I share my deep knowledge and love for the outdoors with fellow hiking enthusiasts. I've hiked New Hampshire's 48 4,000-footers during both summer and winter seasons.

I have been leading hikes with the Boston Chapter of the AMC since the late 90's. I love the White Mountains; I have hiked across the US, as well as several times overseas on multiday backpacks and hut to hut trips. Love winter hiking as well.
