Mount Guyot

Although over 4,000 feet in height, Mount Guyot is not considered one of the 48 New Hampshire "4000-Footers" because it lacks 200 feet of topographic prominence.
Lies on the northern boundary of the Pemigewasset Wilderness. The immediate area around the summit consists of alpine spruce-fir forest or krummholz.

"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 22, 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

"After leaving South Twin I headed towards Guyot. Again there were no views as it remained overcast and rainy. I didn't even stop on Guyot I just continued on towards Zealand. I did drop my pack just below the summit of Guyot because I would just be going out to Zealand and back and It was a welcome relief to take the bag off for a couple miles. Report continues on Zealand Mountains. " — LGH-Tom • Jun 28, 2017

"After Zealand, we hit Guyot. We switched over to snowshoes after Zealand due to sticky snow. By the time we reached Guyot, the cloud cover had burned off. Fantastic views from the summit." — newenglandwarrior • Mar 8, 2016

"3 day/3 night backpacking trip. Hit hale, zealand, west bond, bushwacked off one of west bond's slides to Bear Pond in Redrock Ravine, hiked out of Redrock Ravine via Twinway Slide, and hit south and north twin before completing the loop back to the car." — ATrane21 • Jul 4, 2015

"Did an overnight trip following the northern boundary of the Pemi wilderness. Garfield/Galehead/So. Twin/Guyot/Zealand/Hale. nice 21 mile hike. Still have to say So. Twin has the best views of any 4k. Trail conditions were good, and the weather stayed clear despite forecast calling for t-storms. Awesome hike!" — chrisr00d • Aug 8, 2012

"Backpacking trip to Guyot Campsite to hike Zealand, Guyot, West Bond, Bond, and Bondcliff. My friend HopsandScotch completed his NH48 list on this hike. We also ate dinner and watched the sunset from Mount Bond. This was probably our most memorable hike to date." — WhiteMountainOD • Jul 21, 2012
