For the sake of time I am basically going to copy my Facebook post below and summarize New Hampshire as quick as I can, it basically covers The Whites which has been the hardest part of the trail yet! I’m very grateful we didn’t hit this terrain until close to the end so I had my strong trail legs to get through it, otherwise I don’t know if I would have made it!
From Facebook August 14th:
About halfway through The White Mountains so far and I am in awe….Franconia Ridge definitely takes one of my top three favorite days on The Appalachian Trail so far, luckily we planned for a shorter mileage day so we could take it all in 🥾🚶♀️🏞️🗻⛰️ Tomorrow we make our way towards Mount Washington where a wind speed of 231 MPH held the record until 1996…. Fortunately we have good weather ahead! 🌞
From Facebook August 23rd:
I survived The Whites! 🏔️ This past week of my hike have made me wonder what the difference between hiking and rock climbing is?! There were times I had to pack up the poles and just use my hands to pull me up. I’ve hiked over 1,900 miles and have less than 300 to go! Some of the highlights from the past week include:
🪶 Summit Mount Washington
🔹 Mount Madison
🪶The Wildcat’s! 🐅🐆🐈
🔹Carter Mountain Range
🪶Mount Moriah
🔹Mahoosic Notch (the hardest mile on The Appalachian Trail)- took me about an hour and 20 minutes to do one mile, would have been a little quicker had it not been pouring rain!
🪶1,900 miles 🥾🚶♀️
