Highlights
- Middle Tripyramid is New Hampshire 4000 footer in the Sandwich Range of the White Mountains.
- Part of Mount Tripyramid, so named for its three distinct peaks along a mile-long summit ridge.
- Scaur Peak and The Fool Killer are subsidiary peaks to the northwest and northeast.
- To the southeast, Tripyramid is flanked by The Sleepers.
- Both North and Middle Tripyramid are included in the AMC's New England 4000-footers peak challenge. Although over 4,000 feet high, South Tripyramid is not because it stands less than 200 ft above the col on the ridge from Middle Tripyramid.

"Hiked along with North Tripyramid. We decided on taking the Pine Bend Brook Tr as an out-and-back. Turned out to be a great plan as Sabbaday was closed for safety/maintenance, and everyone we know who had taken the Livermore Tr/Tripyramid loop had only talked about how taxing it had been and wished us luck. We had clear skies and mid seventies. It was a little muggy and buggy, but perfect on the breezy sections of trail. We saw some very healthy lady slippers growing along the lower two miles of trail (a pleasant and easy start and end to the hike), and multiple toads and butterflies. The views were limited but lovely, and worth the few scramble sections where trekking poles were of no use. About 3hr 40min up and over North to Middle, and 3hr back, with a lengthy lunch break at the summit." — gooner • Jun 22, 2018
"After N. Tripyramid, we went over and did Middle. We knocked into Ed Hawkins on the way over. He gave each of us a couple of Dove chocolates. We reached Middle and still had no views. On the way back out, we got views on North Tri. Great hike." — newenglandwarrior • Apr 28, 2018

"My second summit for the day, after North Tripyramid. The Black Hawk helicopter flew over head as I hiked between North and Middle peaks. Met a bearded fellow who raise the American flag at the summit. He had pistachio cookies! Two nice viewpoints, to both the east and west. Continued on to South Tripyramid." — gullyhiker • Sep 9, 2017

"Well, I don't know how to even tell this story...it's a little bit of a dramatic "don't do/ what could go wrong" story.
A friend and I set out to climb Whiteface...it was a beautiful 50 degree day...the sun was shining...it was perfect! About halfway up I said something about if we were real crazy we would have hiked over to the tripyramids...she said, well you should do it and I will drive and get you. I giggled...thought about it and said awesome. I called a hiking friend while I still had service to ask him to track the route and tell me if he saw any water crossings and how long it would be. He said the trail would be 9 miles from Whiteface to the road on the other side of the tripyramids. He said it all looked good....told me I was crazy but that I could do it. So with his vote of confidence I decided I would go on an adventure. Whiteface was LEDGY...but due to some melting we were able to navigate up in just spikes. After a quick lunch we split ways. My friend headed back down whiteface with the plan to grab the car and drive the Kancamagus to pick me up at the Pine Bend Brook Trailhead.
I started to the sleepers and the trail was well blazed for a bit. When I took the tur..." — shay-shay • Mar 9, 2017

"Bagged this after going up the North Slide to North Tripyramid. The col between the two was a nice descent to the Sabbaday junction, then it was a steep final 0.2 to the Middle summit." — HikeLikeMike • Jul 24, 2016
"Headed to middle Tripyramid after summiting north Tripyramid. Really quick hike over to the summit. Way less ice than the pine bend Brook trail. Two other hikers and I hung out on the summit. All of us working towards out NE111. I used the Sabbaday Brook trail on the way down. Much nicer trail with way less ice. Checked out Sabbaday falls on the end of the trail and then walked the kankamangus 1 mile back to my car." — LGH-Tom • May 11, 2016
"Evidence of only one person going from N. TriP to Mid TriP. Wind drifts covered over the trail. Had to break trail. Great view. Heavy cloud cover moving in to disrupt the sunny day. " — newenglandwarrior • Mar 25, 2014

"One of the few days I could get out this summer. Terrific day and saw only two other people all day. I did this loop clockwise (from North Peak to South Peak) and think I saw a bear sleeping on a high rock, coming down from South Peak. Took me 45 min. going down the 1/2 mile south slide. New boots helped on this one!" — SteveM_StickMan • Aug 21, 2013

"Great day! Summited North and Middle Tripyramids. Took a different route down, took much longer than expected. Hiked out by headlamps. Treacherous (and many) river crossings. I wouldn't advise using Sabbady trail until the river freezes more. My hiking buddy broke through the ice and it could have been ugly! Luckily it was just a very wet leg and water filled boot. Luckily we were fairly warm! It was wonderful to reach the end and hear a voice yell, "Hey! You guys want a ride?" YES! Fireworks over the ski resort on the drive out. Perfect end to a day full of stories!" — Jocelyn • Jan 19, 2013

"Did a loop from the Olivarian trailhead to Passaconaway-Whiteface-The Tripyramids to the Kanc and trekked along that back to the Olivarian trailhead. Total milage was 20.4, overnighted on the summit of Middle Tripyramid. Gorgeous weather!" — chrisr00d • Jun 15, 2012

"First cold weather hike. The temperature was 19° F at the parking lot. Start time 9:45 AM. North Peak at 1 PM. South Peak at 1:35 PM. Back to the cars at 4 PM. Very hard conditions on North Slide (snow, ice, wind and cold). The rest of the hike was fine. The South slide was not a problem to descent. Several streams were crossed on the way back." — iddayhiker • Nov 22, 2008

"The snow on Bend brook trail on the descent was crusted just enough so that you almost got to take another step before you broke through up to your knees. My calves swelled up like baloons." — flyrdr • Feb 8, 1975
