"Pretty cloudy day with cool temps all around. Some good wind at the summit. Still great views of the Pemi Wilderness. And had some fun with the two herd paths to the ridge peaks." — Alohabuffy • Jun 6, 2023
"Great day with plenty of sun. Sitting on the Galehead Hut steps soaking in it, nothing better. Finally hit Garfield Ridge East Peak on the HH list. Outlook has fantastic views of the Pemi Wilderness." — Alohabuffy • Nov 14, 2021
"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.

"2 semaines solo de pure plaisir à faire du hiking à différentes places dont les Whites Moutains. Grosse journée qui commence à la noirceur. J'ai essuyé une tempête de l'enfer ici. Par chance la Galehead Hut était encore ouverte au sommet. J'ai pu m'y réfugier le temps que cela se calme un peu. Sur Garfield, les vents étaient horribles! Ils me trainaient par terre." — fsoucy76 • Sep 21, 2018
"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. Beautiful trail!" — deb-and-rob • Aug 11, 2017
"Coming down Garfield was steep and rugged. Skirted around Garfield Ridge West, but came across a herd path for Garfield Ridge East. Left my pack behind and followed it up to the summit. There were views, which was great, and a canister hidden behind a tree at the view point. Will have to return when there are no clouds, but I could see some stuff but was unsure as to what I was looking at. Came back down but lost the herd path on the short way back.
