"Sunday started off with a climb back up to West Bond for Sunrise! After breaking camp, we hiked over to Mount Bond were we got no views! As we hiked over to Bondcliff the clouds started to part and move out. Got great views on Bondcliff to end a great weekend!," — blackwolf_03278 • Aug 16, 2020

"3 days in WMNF. First two days included a nice overnight backpack of the eastern Pemigewasset Wilderness. On day one I hiked up Lincoln Woods and over to the Bonds, then continued on to summit the rest of the high peaks on the Eastern side- Zealand, the Twins, Galehead and Garfield, before setting up camp along the ridgeline above the Franconia Brook Trail. Had great weather going over the Bonds, and had Bondcliff entirely to myself. " — wacbravo • Sep 7, 2019

"So, I started my bonds traverse at 5:45am from Lincoln Woods with the plan to hike Bondcliff, Mount Bond, and West Bond. I had hiked the first portion of this before when I hiked Owl's Head and it was as boring as I remember it to be. At the junction I took the Bondcliff trail which turned out to be another 1.8 miles of boring flat old logging roads. After that the trail takes a sharp left and you start the long steady ascent up to Bondcliff. The actual ascent is pretty gradual with a good amount of flat sections to break it up. By the time I reached the summit I have already hiked almost 9 miles. The summit of Bondcliff is pretty awesome and I refrained from taking the photo that everyone takes while they are up there, that is exactly like the photo that depicts the mountain here on peakery. It was a nice bluebird day with a gentle breeze, but I didn't stay long because after the hike I planned to drive the four hours home and I wanted to make that drive in daylight, so I continued on to Mount Bond........" — LGH-Tom • Aug 23, 2017

"Enjoying a weekend exploring the Whites. Started on trail Friday morning via shuttle (left a car at Zealand parking area). Hiked up to Garfield and the made our way back over the ridge where we spent the night at Galehead Hut before moving on the next day through the Twins and the Bonds. Woke up the next morning and started up the steep climb for the Twins, then over to the Guyot and the Bonds (amazing!) and out through Zealand. We were trying to beat a storm so we passed on Hale - made it to the car with thunder in the distance and a crack of lightening and downpour just as we shut the door! An incredible hike through some very beautiful woods." — deb-and-rob • Aug 12, 2017

"Hiked in the Zealand trail to hut then, continued to Zeacliff and Mount Zealand. From there hiked over Mount Guyot to the campsite for the night. Enjoyed the sunset on West Bond that night and next morning hiked out over Mount Bond and Boncliff to Lincoln woods." — blackwolf_03278 • Jul 23, 2017

"Did the Bonds out and back from Zealand, long day (12 hours +) and about 20 miles. Actually good weather but it was hot coming back up to Bond from Bondcliff. Bondcliff didn't disappoint, fabulous views as always. Trails not as full as we thought they'd be. Forgot how rough Zealand trail was from the Zealand summit to Guyot." — Alohabuffy • Jul 22, 2017

"Headed out with a great group of hiking friends to finish my NH48 patch. Beautiful day....sunshine, a light breeze and lots of laughs. Couldnt have picked a better day to finish!" — shay-shay • Jun 10, 2017

"Bond was our last peak of the day. The couple that was with us finished there NH48 together. A great peak to finish on. Bondcliff was clear of snow. A nice change of pace. We then hiked back to Galehead Hut from here. The snow was softening between Guyot and South Twin but we didn't posthole. Glad we carried these snowshoes for no reason. We also spotted a pine martin on the South Twin summit. Really cool." — newenglandwarrior • May 20, 2017

"Went with Kali in the rain. Seven 4000 footers in a three day backpack. Zealand, Guyot (not on the 4000 footer list) West Bond, Bond, Bondcliff, South Twin, North Twin and Galehead. Spent 1 night at Guyot Campsite in lean-to and second night at Galehead Hut." — Hufflepuff • Aug 1, 2016

"The last peak of the day on our traverse. Between Bond and Bondcliff, there were exposed rocks that were not snowshoe friendly. We barebooted from the col to the summit. Marielle found her picture spot. We then slogged the remaining miles, reaching the car around 7:30pm in the dark." — newenglandwarrior • Mar 8, 2016
