West Bond

"Sunday started off with a climb back up to West Bond for Sunrise! After breaking camp, we hiked over to Mount Bond were we got no views! As we hiked over to Bondcliff the clouds started to part and move out. Got great views on Bondcliff to end a great weekend!," — blackwolf_03278 • Aug 16, 2020

"3 days in WMNF. First two days included a nice overnight backpack of the eastern Pemigewasset Wilderness. On day one I hiked up Lincoln Woods and over to the Bonds, then continued on to summit the rest of the high peaks on the Eastern side- Zealand, the Twins, Galehead and Garfield, before setting up camp along the ridgeline above the Franconia Brook Trail. Had great weather going over the Bonds, and had Bondcliff entirely to myself. " — wacbravo • Sep 7, 2019

"Hiked up to Zealand and kept going to Guyot and then West Bond and Mount Bond. Didn’t make it to Bondcliff. Due to time had to make my way back to Zealand Falls Hut as I was staying there for the night. Sunrise on Zeacliff was spectacular." — dmcosker • Jul 26, 2019

"It was a quick trip out to West Bond. I took a couple of photos and quickly retraced my steps back up to Mount Bond to begin the long walk back to my car at Lincoln Woods. The hike was really difficult just long miles. This was a really awesome hike, I just didn't care for the almost 5 miles of flat on the way in and out. " — LGH-Tom • Aug 23, 2017

"Enjoying a weekend exploring the Whites. Started on trail Friday morning via shuttle (left a car at Zealand parking area). Hiked up to Garfield and the made our way back over the ridge where we spent the night at Galehead Hut before moving on the next day through the Twins and the Bonds. Woke up the next morning and started up the steep climb for the Twins, then over to the Guyot and the Bonds (amazing!) and out through Zealand. We were trying to beat a storm so we passed on Hale - made it to the car with thunder in the distance and a crack of lightening and downpour just as we shut the door! An incredible hike through some very beautiful woods." — deb-and-rob • Aug 12, 2017

"Hiked in the Zealand trail to hut then, continued to Zeacliff and Mount Zealand. From there hiked over Mount Guyot to the campsite for the night. Enjoyed the sunset on West Bond that night and next morning hiked out over Mount Bond and Boncliff to Lincoln woods." — blackwolf_03278 • Jul 22, 2017

"Did the Bonds out and back from Zealand, long day (12 hours +) and about 20 miles. Actually good weather but it was hot coming back up to Bond from Bondcliff. Bondcliff didn't disappoint, fabulous views as always. Trails not as full as we thought they'd be. Forgot how rough Zealand trail was from the Zealand summit to Guyot." — Alohabuffy • Jul 22, 2017
