"Had planned to do the Baldface Loop, but circumstances @ work made it impossible. Knowing Kearsarge had a tower on
it's summit made this alternative choice worth it. The tower reminded me of ones out west...not too tall & much bigger
around. Met a group on the way up who had stayed overnight in the tower...sounds like a return trip for me." — billsussdorff • Sep 14, 2018
"What a beautiful day in the mountains. Trail in great winter conditions, well packed and no ice. Clear blue skies and little or no wind, temps in the 30's. There may have been days as good as this but never better!!" — goshen-bagger • Feb 20, 2017
"GORGEOUS DAY with AMAZING views.....couldnt have beat the weather! Up & Down in 4 hours with a friend who doesn't hike....it was strenuous but rewarding with the most amazing 360 degree views!" — shay-shay • Oct 5, 2016
"started hike at 4:00 Am to get to summit for sunrise. Lots of ice on trail to do in the dark even with lights.
Still only 20 deg at summit. Real cold watching sunrise, then it started snowing." — Alohabuffy • Apr 5, 2015
"Did a quick morning hike up Kearsarge north...my first solo winter ascent. It wasn't without drama: Snow was pouring down and there were two different flashes of lightning. Then the snow flipped to sleet and it was generally a miserable hike back to the car with ice pellets stinging my face. " — grouseking • Jan 15, 2007
