"Climbed with my daughter Kelly, her first 4000 footer. Hoped for some sun but it was cloudy and rainy most of the day with a few sunny breaks. The view from Mt. Tom is nearly non-existent now with the tree growth. Relatively slow going up and back due to the wetness." — SteveM_StickMan • Aug 10, 2019

"2 semaines solo de pure plaisir à faire du hiking à différentes places dont les Whites Moutains. Pour cette série je voulais faire Avalon, Willey, Field et ensuite arriver sur Tom pour le coucher du soleil. La journée était parfait pour cela. Aucun nuage, ni rien! Et finalement, à mon arriver sur Tom, des gros nuages se sont mis de la partie. Donc je suis repartis sans avoir de photo de coucher de soleil.... Mais j'ai mes 4 sommets! :)" — fsoucy76 • Sep 27, 2018

"Solo. 9/48, and my final hike on my New Hampshire “adventurecation”. See Willey & Field logs for the start and middle of the traverse. After being inundated with way too many people on Mount Field, I quickly ducked back into the forest to get over to Mount Tom. This trail was very muddy (shoe sucker mud!) and had strange rocky spots that almost looked like gravel had been dumped on the trail. Perhaps it was? A couple of the French speakers from Field raced down the trail behind me, never said excuse me and almost knocked me out of their way in their rush on the trail. Why? Ugh. I hate poor trail etiquette. There was also a strange area of cut down dead grey trees laying around. A lot of the trail was lush and green with moss, and there were quite a few little field mice munching on mushrooms along the way, which pretty much made my day. :-) On Mt Tom there was a sneak of a view over the trees, and I sat and had my summit beer in the company of the guy & his father I had met earlier. They took of a photo of me making a Tom Face on Mount Tom for my brother, and I made my way back. It was a long slog back to my car back up over Field, which felt like it took forever to summit again, a..." — kellieirene • Aug 27, 2018

"AH - MAZING day in the whites! No clouds...just sun and no wind either! Throw in feeding the gray jays and we were happy as pigs in slop. Got Tom, Field and Willey on the books for April." — shay-shay • Apr 23, 2018

"Nice winter day, near 30 at base of mountains. Hiked up the Avalon Trail to Avalon, then up to Mt. Field and over to Tom. Lots of packed snow on trail, mirco spikes up to Avalon and Mt. Field. From Field to Mt. Tom put on snowshoes." — blackwolf_03278 • Feb 19, 2018

"Columbus Day weekend. We chose the best day weather wise but still ran into light rain and drizzle for a good portion of the hike. We ascended via the Avalon trail to the A-Z trail to the Mt Tom Spur. Then we hiked across to Mt Field. The descent down the Avalon trail was very steep tricky and wet as rain continued. A truly beautiful hike despite the limited views and diminished visibility. We skipped the Mt Avalon spur due to time. Not our fastest hike as we took many stops for pics!" — Amero4k • Oct 7, 2017

"After a failed attempt trying to cross the Little River to climb the Twins we made our way over to Crawford Notch and set our sights on Willey, Field and Tom. The trail to Willey starts off as part of the AT for the initial 1.6 miles as we climb over some nice rock stairs and log stairs to reach 2600'. At ~ 1.6 miles in the AT splits off and heads towards Zealand Falls and the Willey Range trail starts up - REALLY up as we will climb only 400' over the next 0.6 miles and then 1300' in the last 0.5 miles before the summit - heavily eroded and a little slick in the rain at the top but a very fun trail. Although Willey is treed in there is a view toward the Presidential's just below the summit. From Willey we drop through 2 cols (-320 / +450) over the next 1.4 miles to Field - really enjoyed the woods along this portion. The hike over to Field is fun, fast and mild - also treed in at the summit but there is a viewpoint nearby. From Field to Tom we will -650 / +360 over the next 1.5 miles - some fun little blocky climbs and another nice trail. On this portion the Gray Jays came by and asked for lunch - we obliged :) Again, the summit is treed in but if you continue past the ca..." — deb-and-rob • Jun 9, 2017

"Winter conditions for sure! This was my third hike with Bitty. We parked a car at the Willey end of the range and left another at the AMC parking area. The hike up Willey required snowshoes and the ladder section was sketchy for Bitty. We had to circumvent the actual trail, opting for the deep snow through the trees instead of the icy path worn over the ladders. " — ne4kclimber • Apr 2, 2017

"A very wet day hiking up to hit tom, field and avalon....the snow was steaming and created quite a fog! We hit Avalon first, and didn't get any views due to the heavy clouds and then went to Field. As I hit the summit and went to the side I saw the most incredible view! The presidential all open with an undercast below...by the second the clouds were rolling in...it was amazing! We then enjoyed lunch with the gray jays!! After the most incredible lunch break we finished up the loop on foggy Tom and headed back to Crawfords. An amazing day in the clouds!" — shay-shay • Jan 22, 2017

"Cold and mostly cloudy day for Tom, Field and Avalon. About 10 degrees near Tom's summit with some views to the north and west. A couple of pesky Gray Jays. Tom Spur not as well packed as A to Z." — Alohabuffy • Jan 14, 2017
