"Higher summits forecast was calling for 60-80mph winds. For 4/5 of the hike- no wind ( in the ravind and below tree line- but once exposed up top the wind was fierce! Group hike and all summited with no frost bite. " — hiking4000 • Feb 22, 2020
"A Presi day. And I learned that the Jewell Tr was broken out. I went up Jewell and did Jefferson first. Then I hiked up Washington. Then down to Monroe. Out via Ammonoosuc Ravine Tr. Beautiful day to be out. " — newenglandwarrior • Jan 24, 2020
"A red-lining hike with Denise. We went up Ammo to Monroe first. Very windy and socked in. We had to put on our winter gear from the winter chill. When we got past Lake of the Clouds Hut, the cloud cover had blown over. We went out via Dry River Tr. " — newenglandwarrior • Sep 27, 2019

"Single-day Presidential Traverse to finish off 3 days of peakbagging and Appalachian Trail redlining in White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire. The Traverse, spanning Pinkham Notch to Crawford Notch, covered 25 miles and 8,300 feet of elevation gain in 14 hours moving. The southern presidentials were below the cloud cover, the the climb over Mount Monroe provided the first summit views of the day" — wacbravo • Sep 9, 2019

"Last week we were all set to go camping ... a nice long weekend of relaxing. At the last minute our friends talked us into joining them to complete one of the Northeast Ultra 8's - the Presidential Traverse - 24 miles and 9200 feet of gain over some tough terrain. It was not my best day, I wasn't feeling it and I was slower - thankfully these guys were not worried about pace and instead they were all about enjoying the day, working together to get it done and keeping it fun - so thankful for a great crew!" — deb-and-rob • Aug 31, 2019

"Too bad I've managed to overlook Mt. Monroe in favor of its higher neighbor, Washington. Beautiful view, beautiful terrain. We started our climb up the Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail just after 8:30am, and began our race against the heat. The few water crossings were pleasant and easy to manage, and the rock scrambling was minor compared to some other trails in the Whites. We made it up to the Lakes of the Clouds Hut in about 2.5 hours and enjoyed using some cool water as relief from the humidity. Quick jaunt up to the summit, which was gorgeous, then back to the hut for lunch, all the while shielded from the sun by a temporary and gentle cloud cover. Bugs were plentiful on the way back to the trailhead, but trail company was good and the knee impact wasn't as bad as we expected. Down by 3:30, even with all our resting, snacking, and photographing. All in all, a great hike that I would do again!" — gooner • Jul 5, 2019
"Great weather to attempt a winter ascent of Mt Wash. Mid 20s, relatively low wind and complete sunshine. Lots of people on Ammonusuc. At least half were skiers. Crazy winds a top Monroe (40 mph) made it interesting. Otherwise a fantastic day for a hike.Snowshoe to the hut, then crampons for the two summits." — Alohabuffy • Mar 9, 2019
"A Presi day. Time to see how much trail breaking I would have to do. Parked down at the Ammo trailhead, then road walked up to the Cog RR. Discovered that the Ammo Tr was broken out. Made easy work of it and up the slope. Then I passed the people breaking the trail. So I teamed up with them. Andrew and I led the way to Lake of the Clouds Hut. Then both of us summitted Monroe without the ladies. We then returned and headed up Washington. Minimal wind. We then headed back down. Ankle deep snow the entire time. I was drained of energy." — newenglandwarrior • Nov 15, 2018

"Camped @ Dry River the night before & summited via the Ammonoosuc trail. It was a bluebird day with no
wind above tree line. Another great hike with my son who drove down from Jay, Vt." — billsussdorff • Oct 5, 2018

"2 semaines solo de pure plaisir à faire du hiking à différentes places dont les Whites Moutains. LA grosse journée où je tente trois gros sommets dont le mont Washington. Ce fut une réussite de A à Z. En beaucoup moins de temps que je le pensais et aussi plus facilement que je m'y attendais. Je monte par la trail ammonoosuc jusqu'à la Hut, direction Monroe, ensuite retour vers Washington, pause diner, direction Clay: ensuite Jefferson, je vire de bord pour me diriger vers la Jewel trail jusqu'au stationnement... Oufff! Très belle journée malgré que les sommets avaient la tête dans les nuages, ce qui est normal pour les Whites... J'en conserver un très beau souvenir. " — fsoucy76 • Sep 24, 2018
