New Hampshire new to Franconia Ridge Trail
Posted: Wed October 21, 2009 10:28 PM UTC
We are planning a trip to New Hampshire next summer. The Franconia Ridge Trail looks stunning....I've heard that it's really steep to get up and down. How dangerous is it....do you have to climb large sheets of rock that are thousands of feet in the air and fatal? or is it just steep, but not extremely dangerous? I would love to hike this trail, but will pick an easier one if this one is too dangerous. It seems like if lots of people hike it, then it's probably ok.

New Hampshire When is the best time to see foliage in White Mountains?
Posted: Mon September 21, 2009 12:34 AM UTC
Hi all,

My friends and I are planning to go to White Mountains next weekend to see the foliage, but I remember reading somewhere that there is a specific time that I can see the foliage (like late October or something), but I don't know when.

Thanks a lot and best regards,

Hazel

New Hampshire Serious hiking in White Mtns - Mt Washington
Posted: Mon June 9, 2008 07:43 PM UTC
We are visiting the Mt Washington area of the White Mtns for a couple of nights camping at the end of June as part of a tour of New England and would like to do a really good hike in the area. We are very fit, experienced walkers with a lot of mountaineering experience.

We want to do an interesting, decent length walk of anything from 10 - 20 miles (day hike) and preferably gain some height (a summit). Can anyone recommend a really good hike?

Also be interested in any recommendations for nice quite, scenic campsite (pref rustic to over developed or commercialised sites).

Many thanks,

Sam from England

Can anybody tell me how can I get from Portsmouth, NH to Ogunquit, ME? From what I've found on net, and that is nothing, I think my only option is taxi. If that is so, how much would it cost? I can see it's some 20 miles ride..

Tilton Trip ideas
Posted: Tue May 6, 2008 01:56 AM UTC
Been awhile since I've been up there. Is the go kart place still open? Mini golf? Any ideas of prices or other things to do while up there. Any nice local hotel/motels besides the super 8 (all I find online) that is reasonable. Relatives in Tilton but don't mind staying in Franklin. thanks

Bretton Woods WHich hotel/motel is good near Twin Mountains!
Posted: Tue December 11, 2007 02:48 AM UTC
Hi,
I will be booking for a motel/cabin/hotel for Dec 21 and 22. I am not too much into old clunky cabins country decorated type, but I don't mind a clean, non-smoking lodging that I can look outside. I am stuck between three hotel/motels..
In no particular order:
1) The Patio Motor Court
2) Above the Notch
3) Profile Deluxe Motel http://www.profiledeluxe.com/
4) Shakespeare Inn

I stayed at Above the Notch 10 years ago and it was good but I heard the owners changed and it's right on route 3 (noisy a little). Which of these actually has the view of twin mountains? Thanks!

New Hampshire Mount Washington driving tips
Posted: Thu October 4, 2007 02:05 AM UTC
Last year I drove to Franconia, Lincoln, Conway enjoying the Kancagamus highway foliage route. Thanks for some of you who provided the tips.

This time, I am planning to drive to MOunt Washington. If I see the information available in web, it is a kind of scary. Please let me know whether there is any chance of missing direction or getting into trouble. Once I reach the top of Mount Washington, what is there to see? And in a auto gear car, do I need to travel in a lower gear (D3) instead of normal drive (D).

Franconia Hotels
Posted: Sun September 30, 2007 09:45 PM UTC
Hi Everyone,

A friend and I are looking for a nice hotel in the Franconia area for 5-7 nights at the end of October. She was suggesting the Best Western White Mountain Resort - has anyone any experience of this? The reviews on Trip Advisor seem quite mixed. I'd prefer to stay somewhere with at least 20 rooms as personally I don't like the feeling that I'm staying at someone's house in a smaller place (too many B&B experiences over the years!).

Oh and ideally we'd like a room each for under $150 each a night if possible. Is that asking too much??

Thankss in advance :)

Nashua October in Nashua (Public Transp., Eats, Books)
Posted: Wed September 26, 2007 03:55 PM UTC
Hi everyone! My wife and I and two cairn terrors, err terriers, are coming up to Nashua next week. There's a Kerouac conference in Lowell, Mass., but Nashua is the closest place that would take dogs at a reasonable price. (Red Roof Inn!) Mass. motels seem to be expensive!

I see that there's a commuter train to Boston, is there quick public transport to Lowell? It's just a 12 or 15 mile drive, right?

I saw some good local eats like Haywards Ice Cream and B&B Cattlemens Steak House, any other recommendations?

We're coming up from Asheville, NC to escape the tourists ;-)

Thanks! jan stefan

How about good local bookstores?

Heard the leaves are beautiful right now.

New Hampshire Hiking off K Hwy
Posted: Thu July 5, 2007 08:40 PM UTC
Hi everyone,
I am going hiking in a couple of weeks in NH and I am trying to find a place I went when I was little. I remember my parents would take me to Lincoln. We would drive not too far down the K hwy and park. We would stay right on a path, along the riverside and walk for about 2 miles until we came upon platforms for tents. A little further down there are water falls in wich my dad would hold my hands and I would sit inside the carved rock. The water would shoot me out into a pool. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you :)

New Hampshire Lake of the Clouds Hut
Posted: Mon February 19, 2007 03:21 AM UTC
I am planning a trip to New Hampshire primarily to hike up Mount Washington. I had heard that you can stay overnight in Lake of the Clouds hut and was wondering if anybody here has done that before. Is it first come first serve? Cook your own meals? Any advice would be appreciated.

I was near Mt. Washington last spring for a conference. I had hiked to just below the hut, but had to turn back due to thick ice still remaining on the path and slopes and not wanting to take a bad fall. I am looking forward to returning.

If the hike goes well and is not delayed by weather, I may have 1 to 2 additional days. Can you recommend other good hikes or mountain biking routes or whitewater rafting? And could you recommend a place to camp near Mount Washington? Thanks.
