Join us for a Halloween hike of the Uncanoonuc Mountains in Goffstown, NH!  Located just 20 minutes outside of the Queen City, these peaks offer peaceful views of Manchester, Mount Monadnock, and Mount Kearsarge.  Costumes are encouraged for the Halloween weekend.  :)  This is a hike that was rescheduled from its original date of 10/22 because of weather. 

This is considered a moderate hike and we will hit both the North and South Uncanoonuc Mountains.  The parking lot is located at 300 Mountain Road, Goffstown, NH 03045.  We will summit South Uncanoonuc first (2.5 miles; 657’ elevation gain), then North Uncanoonuc after (2.1 miles; 738’ elevation gain).  In total, it should take 3-3.5 hours.  Bring a lunch and we will take a break on the summit of North Uncanoonuc, before our descent back to the parking lot.   

Below is the AllTrails map of our hike as well as a list of the “10 Essentials” to pack for any hike.  Please remember to bring extra water, proper footwear, layered clothing, and a great attitude.   I hope you can join us!
