The trip report

‎16 friends and family hiked Mt Morgan, over to Mt Percival & back down. It was about a 5 round trip hike with blue sky weather. There is an optional ladder and rock climb on the way up and another optional tight squeeze rock climb on the way down. This hike has lot's of optional fun obstacels and fantastic views for such a short, moderate hike. The downed oak leaves made the hike down a little more treacherous. After the hike, most of the group met at Hats Turkey Farm for a dinner before heading home.

About this event

Join me for this 5.3 mile loop over Mts. Morgan (2220') and Percival (2212').  The Morgan and Percival loop is an old favorite and it offers fantastic views of the Squam Lake area.  Along the way up there are optional ladders and caves.  Elevation gain is approximately 1575'.

This hike will be postponed if the NOAA.com forecast calls for 20% or more chance of precip in Holderness NH on Fri.

What to Bring:  Typical fall hiking gear should be appropriate:  shorts or convertible hiking pants, good sturdy hiking boots with thick socks and a windbreaker/raingear (just in case).  Also bring along lunch, snacks and plenty of water.  Optionally, pack bug repellent and sunscreen and anything else that you may require. 

Afterwards:  We should be completed with the hike by 4-5PM.  If there is sufficient interest, we'll cap the day off with dinner/drinks Hart's Turkey Farm afterwards.
