"A hike up Blueberry Ledge Tr to Whiteface. We went from barebooting to snowshoes partway up. All socked in today. After Whiteface, we headed over to Passaconaway. Reached the summit, then down Daicey Mill Tr. No views at all today. On and off flurries in the morning. Light drizzle by the time we reached Ferncroft. Snow was also getting sloppy." — newenglandwarrior • Jan 27, 2024

"Molly and I went for a hike for her Grid and my Calendar Day need. We went up Blueberry Ledge Tr to Rollins Tr to Dicey Mill Tr back down to Ferncroft. Quite a bit of the snow is gone on Blueberry Ledge Tr. Found plenty of it elsewhere. Monorail was mostly firm and we didn't need to use our snowshoes. " — newenglandwarrior • Apr 20, 2023

"Hiked Whiteface and Passaconaway in the same hike. Went up Blueberry Ledge to Whiteface and then over to Passaconaway and out Dicey's Mill Trail. Dicey's Mill might be the easiest trail to descend in the NH4Kers. 34 degrees at the start. A nice sunny day with hazy clouds and no wind. The temperature at the finish was 57 degrees. Blueberry Ledge was challenging and very steep in sections. The views of the lakes region were fantastic. The hike over to Passaconaway was a ridge hike and offered very little views along the way. Passaconaway was a simple check off as that peak didn't offer any exciting views either. It was a total of 10.8 miles and we did it in 8.5 hours!" — GreggC • Sep 30, 2022

"Teamed up with Juel to help her on some peaks she needed. She chose Whiteface and Passaconaway. We met at Ferncroft and headed up Blueberry Ledge Tr. A cloudy day today and windy at the top. We followed the Rollins Tr over to Passaconaway. We threw on spikes above the ledges on Whiteface and kept them on until Daicy Mill Tr. We went up Passaconaway then headed down Daicy. We crosssed paths with Hiker Ed on the way down. It had been awhile since I last hiked with Juel and it was good to do so again. I gained a Calendar Day today. " — newenglandwarrior • Apr 22, 2022

"I needed today for a calendar day. So I chose Whiteface and Passaconaway to pick up some peaks on my current loop. A little bit of everything on the trail. Ice down low, Blueberry Ledge Tr was both clear of snow/ice and icy. I made it up the ledges and reached the top. I accidently passed by the Whiteface summit, so turned around and went back. Found the hidden wooden sign. Rollins Tr had a mixture of monorail and pockets of ice. Went up to Passaconaway and mixture of firm snow and pockets of ice. Reached the top, then came down Daicey's Mill Tr. Snow was getting sticky from the afternoon sun. Down low, the trail had some ice/snow or nothing at all. Reached the trailhead. I then went to Smuttynose Brewing for a gain on my Views and Brews. " — newenglandwarrior • Mar 23, 2022

"Solo. 20&21/48. Started out around 0745. Driving to the trailhead the roads were wet, it was in the 50’s, humid as all get out, and the sky was full cloud cover. I wasn’t feeling real excited to spend another day hiking on my sore right Achilles’ tendon, but figured I can recover later, right? I’ll be candid here and admit I could’ve done a better job of researching trail options. There aren’t many but maybe just winging it off of the NH4000Footers website wasn’t a great idea. There were 5 cars in the lot when I arrived and one other hiker gearing up. Many signs about not overflowing hiking posted down the road. I hiked in on a gravel road that passes a couple of houses, and then made my way up what is actually someone’s driveway- the sign at the gate said, “Private Property, Hikers Welcome!” I cannot imagine living at the base of two 4000’ers but also cannot begin to wonder about the issues this creates for the landowners. Very grateful to them for being so generous in allowing folks to wander on their land day in and day out. After passing their house and going further up the gravel road, there is a bridge that goes to the Blueberry Ledge Trail. Take this trail. ..." — kellieirene • Sep 18, 2020

"Great hike using the Blueberry Ledge Trail. Taking a dip in the river after the hike was the best idea of the day. Use the connector trail between Blueberry Ledge and Dicey to get to a few decent swimming holes." — tadgemcw • Jul 18, 2020

"I didn't have to work today because of the Covid pandemic cancelling our annual event. So I took advantage of it with a hike. We hiked up Whiteface, then Passaconaway, then over to another peak which this site claims is Hibbard. Then out via the Kelley Tr." — newenglandwarrior • Jul 4, 2020

"Humid and buggy day. Went up Blueberry Ledge Trail to summit. Then across the Rollins Trail to Dicey Mill Trail up to Passaconaway summit. Then looped around via Walden Trail back to Dicey Mill Trail and out the trailhead. Great views from several points on Whiteface and Passaconaway. A passing thunderstorm was nothing more than a rain shower that cooled things down for a bit. Passaconaway marks number 39 or 48. Hiked Whiteface two years ago as an out and back." — dmcosker • Jun 20, 2020

"In town for the weekend enjoying our Anniversary, on this day we were climbing Whiteface and Passaconoway, Loved the steep trails with the roots and rock scrambles. Took the Wiggins Trail up to start the loop, then to Blueberry Ledge trail before reaching Whiteface and heading over to Passaconoway. We missed our on views with the clouds but had a great day!" — deb-and-rob • Jun 21, 2019
