Prerequisites
Previous hiking experience in some season.

Join us on a hike up to Mt. Roberts, part of an ancient volcanic ring-dike complex (the Ossipee Mountains of New Hampshire). It has a great close-up view of Lake Winnipesaukee, the largest lake in NH!

Route: 5.2 mi, 1350 ft. gain. Map: https://caltopo.com/m/H9HVT

We will leave Cambridge early in the hope of returning before dinnertime. We'll stop for a quick breakfast along the way.

Mandatory in-person pre-trip meeting Thursday, January 25 at 6pm in the MIT Student Center.

Participants will share car costs (about $100/car). If you can drive your own car or are willing to drive a rental car, please edit the lottery preferences on your MITOC profile to show this.
