This trail is challenging due to it&#8217;s length and steepness, though is considered one of the easier big peaks of NH. Along this hike, you will need to be able to make large steps up rock stairs and be prepared for windy conditions at the peak. As this mountain is tall, there may be snow at the top depending on what time of year you decide to climb. Please be aware of weather conditions and if there is snow wear micro spikes. This trail can also be quite muddy due to snow melting and rain, so make sure to wear waterproof shoes as well. Before you reach the final stretch to the summit, you will cross paths with Mizpah Spring Hut, where you can take some time to rest, grab some food, refill waters, and use the bathroom. At the summit, you will see amazing views of nearby mountains, and on a nice day, you will be able to see Mount Washington! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images
