Mt Kearsarge North
A Fall Non-Foliage Hike
Details
All the leaves probably have fallen and turned brown, but hopefully the skies will not be gray for this spectacular hike with superb views of numerous 4000 footers!
Mt. Kearsage North [3268'] is an open ledgy summit featuring panoramic views in most directions. We'll hike the Mt. Kearsage Trail up and back. While the distance to the summit is fairly short, the elevation gain compressed into that distance puts this climb on par with many 4,000 footers.
We will be hiking at a moderate pace with time to enjoy the scenery and to take rests as needed. Please have the appropriate amount of layers to keep warm for this time of year. Temperatures are expected to be in the 50s. Carry at least 2 liters of water, lunch and snacks.
Distance: 6.2 miles
Elevation Gain: 2600 feet
Estimated Time: 6 - 7 hours
Any questions about the hike? Feel free to e-mail me for answers.
Directions
From Route 16 in Intervale (just north of North Conway) turn right onto Hurricane Mtn Road (just north of the Intervale tourist viewing area). Then drive for 1.5 miles to the parking area (on left) for Mt Kearsarge North Trail.
