"Great to be back in the White Mtns. Still working on the 4000 footers, I started them when I was 10. Ate a dry sandwich on a wet rock on the viewless, noiseless summit of Waumbek. 40/48" — scott • Sep 21, 2023
"Well, it finally didn't rain. Still steamy and wet in the woods. Lots of mud and water on the trail, and plenty of ugly clouds. Starr King had some very hungry and plentiful black flies." — Alohabuffy • Jun 30, 2023
"Kept driving north until we found sunshine, in Jefferson. Really nice trip up Waumbek. Excellent packed track for spikes or shoes. Great views from Starr King. And Gray Jays working the summits." — Alohabuffy • Feb 13, 2022
"2nd day of hiking with Maryellen and Nancy. 2.6 miles up a trail with gravel, dirt, and some boulders. Some muddy sections near the top. Beat the rain. Steady up with no really steep sections. Saw 10 people and a wishing well structure. " — lfrancois • Sep 12, 2021
"Pretty busy parking lot for a very cloudy day in December. Lots of people and dogs on the trail today. Nice solid snow bed, easy to do in spikes. Faint outline of the presi's from the summit outlook. 35 degs up on top. Three gray jays on Starr King working it. " — Alohabuffy • Dec 12, 2020
"Five star climb! First 4,000er in a year, a little worried but no problems. Left at 0830, hit Starr King at 1030, left Waumbek at 1200, back to trail head at 1420. Met lets of nice people. Say hi to Avery for me!" — NHClimber • Aug 16, 2020
"We were feeling sore from yesterday's hike, but we decided we were feeling good enough to do something mild. So we did Waumbek. We both needed it for our grids. We got a late morning start and it showed in the parking lot. We made decent time heading up, hitting Starr King on the way. We didn't stay long and headed back down.

"With Kim! We got a late start around 09:15, parking was no issue. It was a little bit chilly, but warmed up quickly especially as we were moving. This trail is beautiful! Gradual uphill and steady with good footing, and no bugs. My legs are pretty grouchy but we maintained a pretty quick overall pace, even though we kept stopping to look at various mushrooms and toads, as well as marveling at how green and lush and mossy the sides of the trail were, what a massive fern population! Just gorgeous. There was a little rocky push to the summit of this, & we stopped to take a quick break next to the tiny cairn before heading over to Waumbek, trip report will be continued on that log. Mileage and gain shown here is JUST for Mt Starr King. " — kellieirene • Aug 24, 2018

"What started as a traverse to the Berlin Fish Hatchery became an out-and-back because the Kilkenny Ridge Trail between Mt Waumbek and South Weeks was nearly impassable due to massive blowdowns." — ducati996 • Jun 2, 2018
