"Did the "Loop" trail. Started at 7 am on Bangor Street trail head, and came out to Stoney Brook Trail head at 2:30. MANY stops on the way to take pictures and see the beautiful views as well!!!!" — Bucky • Oct 10, 2020

"A rather cold trip to the top of Moriah today. 17 deg at the bottom, 7 at the top plus a cruel wind made it a little inhospitable on the summit. Too bad as the bright blue skies were stunning and views for miles in every direction. Good look out from Surprise's ledges. Trail was in excellent shape, snowshoes door to door. Except snowmobilers have ripped apart the trail from the 1 mile to 2 mile mark." — Alohabuffy • Jan 20, 2020

"The temperature was great and the summit beautiful! We had no trouble finding parking on Bangor Street at 9:00am, but could tell right away we were in for a buggy climb (no surprise, it being Memorial Day weekend in the White Mountains). I had frequented a few weather and trail report websites for a week or two leading up to our climb, and therefore knew to pack some microspikes just in case we came upon some snow. And we did (no surprise... it being Memorial Day weekend in the White Mountains). The first third of the trail had moderate grades and easy footing, but was very buggy. The next third was mostly comprised of ledges to shinny over, a few nice views, and more bugs. The final third was bugless (finally!), the one benefit to having to suddenly navigate through/over a mile and a half of crumbling monorail. Lunch at the summit helped to lessen the blow and keep us from developing a poor opinion of what is clearly a beautiful mountain. I would definitely be interested in hiking Moriah again under slightly better conditions (e.g. minus the frighteningly unstable snow pack and the gang of thousands of black flies that followed and attacked us)." — gooner • May 25, 2019

"Put 1 Bangor Rd. in the GPS but no sign of trail head. Drove down rte. 2 until I saw a bunch of through-hikers. Asked one for directions to the Moriah Trail, offered her a ride. Dropped her off but discovered it was the wrong trail. Headed back to Bangor Rd. and saw two through-hikers hitching. Picked them up and dropped them off at a hotel, then found the correct trail. Met lots of nice people hiking. Worried about the time (started at 1300) so raced down from the peak. Got to my car at 1940." — NHClimber • Jul 21, 2018

"Headed out with Curran to snag this peak for March. Well packed, recent trail work done as well. A gorgeous day with blue bird skies...just a bit cold with some wind....warmer than the projected -35 with wind...I would say it was right around 0 to -10. " — shay-shay • Mar 19, 2018

"Went up Moriah today. Out and back up Carter Moriah Tr. Saw a couple of ladies rocking some cool NY patches. They were from NY and NJ working on there NE111. Took a pic of one their packs. Great views today." — newenglandwarrior • Oct 28, 2017

"Learned that the trail was broken out yesterday, so I decided to hike this mountain. Had a few drifts that I had to push through, but the hike overall wasn't bad. Drove up to Carabassett Valley, ME that night. " — newenglandwarrior • Feb 17, 2017

"NoBo AT Thru Hike 2016. I (Tom) met Kim a couple miles south on the trail from the summit of Mount Moriah. We hiked together with the remaining daylight and had to stop shortly before the Rattle River Shelter in order to put on our headlamps. At the shelter we ran into two of Kim's trail friends (Stardust and Flannel) as well as Jeff Davis, who I had helped resupply in Gotham. He didn't have his headlamp and we had to escort him down the trail the remaining 1.5 miles so he could get to where he had set up his camp for the night in a stealth location. Long, but fun and rewarding day. " — Kim-Stilson • Sep 2, 2016

"Started the day by having breakfast in Gorham with Kim and Limey, (Limey I had met back in Virginia the first time I did trail magic) we then packed up and I dropped Kim and three other NoBo AT Thru Hikers who I picked up on Rt. 16 off at Pinkham notch. Kim was gonna take the gondola up since she had already hiked the ridge up to wildcat D the previous day. I was going to start on the other side from US2 and meet her on Mount Moriah. Upon arriving at the trail I saw Puma looking for a hitch into Gotham, I had met him on Killington in Vermont a couple weeks before, so I offered to bring him into town. After dropping him off I headed back to start my hike and when I arrived I saw Jeff Davis looking for a hitch into town who I had met back in Delaware Water Gap when I was doing trail magic. I gave Jeff Davis a ride to Walmart to resupply, the liquor store, and a gas station to get everything he needed and we headed back to the trail. After arriving at the trailhead I have to admit we spent more time than I should have sitting drinking beers and exchanging stories. I ended up heading up later than I wanted to, but still had enough time to get to the summit of Moriah before Kim arrived...." — LGH-Tom • Sep 2, 2016

"Part of a red-lining, 4th loop, and Grid attempt. Went up Stoney Brook Tr, then went up Moriah from the south, seeing the lovely ledges on the way up. From here, I then went on to North Carter." — newenglandwarrior • Jul 30, 2016
