Join us on a spectacular New England classic: the Welch-Dickey loop.
Logistics
We will hike a loop over Mt Welch and Mt Dickey in the White Mountains National Forest in NH.
The hike is 4 miles long with 1800' of elevation gain and we expect to complete it in less than 3 hours.
We will leave Cambridge around 9am, return time will depend on whether the group wants to stop on the way back to see more of New Hampshire.
There will be a pre-trip meeting on Thursday at 8pm on zoom in which you can ask questions.
