"10 mile round trip from Lafayette Place. Half the group stayed at Lonesome Lake with the puppy while we bagged the Kinsmans. Fishing Jimmy is a very rocky trail and kept our speed slow. Better view from North " — hiking4000 • Aug 31, 2020

"A great day for this hike - warm and sunny...until the last few miles where it poured for 20 minutes! This felt great, for the first 5 minutes and then the trail became a stream and well, ya know :) Thanksfully we were done with the major drop by then. Started at Lafayette Campground to the Ridge Trail, over the Cannon Balls to the Kinsmen and down the Reel Brook Trail. Somewhere around 14 miles and 5000 ft of gain. Fun day." — deb-and-rob • Aug 15, 2020
"Molly and I did a red-lining hike today. I needed the AT from South Kinsman to Kinsman Notch. We did a car spot and headed northbound on the AT from the Notch. We grabbed Mt Wolf on the way up. Then we went over the steep ledgey stuff of S. Kinsman, then over to N. Kinsman, then down the Mt Kinsman Tr. We were pretty beat after this hike. Our longest one after quarantine.

"Beautiful day in the White mountains! Hiked up to Lonesome lake then onto the Kinsmens via the Fishing Jim trail. Ran into many north and south bound thru hikers and enjoyed the company of many hikers." — blackwolf_03278 • Jul 7, 2019

"2 semaines solo de pure plaisir à faire du hiking à différentes places dont les Whites Moutains.3ieme journée et je suis enfin rendu dans les Whites!!! Je commence avec cette suite exigeante de sommets. De Cannon à Kinsman. La vue est malheureusement complètement obstrué par le brouillard. Je ne peux pas admirer la vu du notch" — fsoucy76 • Sep 19, 2018
"Thought we were getting a sunny day but summits along ridge were socked in. Hit Kinsman Pond and Bald Peak too. Must have been some sort of AMC thing going on. Large groups of hikers everywhere on the ridge." — Alohabuffy • Jan 20, 2018
"Part of my AMC mentored hike. We went over to S. Kinsman and the cloud cover was breaking up. We then returned to N. Kinsman and were rewarded with great views. We then slowly made our way back to the trailhead. Everyone survived and seemed to be in good spirits. I learned a lot from this day's hike." — newenglandwarrior • May 27, 2017

"Winter climb and my first ascent in New Hampshire since breaking my foot on Tecumseh. Joined Ally and a crew from Boston for this one. It was a bluebird day - cold - and breezy. " — ne4kclimber • Mar 4, 2017

"This was my first winter 48 solo.....I don't know how I have been so fortunate to have so many hiking partners!! This was a tough mountain perhaps because of the mental game of hiking solo. But I managed bald peak, north and south kinsman in 4.5 hours. Lots of sun in the start and lots of clouds in the end. I only saw 2 fellow hikers all day." — shay-shay • Feb 27, 2017

"this trail is super unfriendly to knees. Highly recommend using poles and not doing this trail in the rain. Cascade Brook trial has some pretty views but it's very flooded and not worth the extra hour. " — kaylajean • Oct 3, 2015
