Join us on Sunday for a fun hike up Mt. Galehead and South Twin, two 4000-footers in the Whites which offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains in the Pemi wilderness

Route is here. We will be hiking 14 miles with 3700 ft of elevation gain. We will be using microspikes/snowshoes.

Prerequisites: We’ll keep a moderate/fast pace (1.5 - 1.8 mph) with minimal breaks, so come prepared! Note that you will be hiking with a bigger/heavier backup than your typical summer hike. Ideally, you’ve done similar mileage or at least 9-10 miles at this pace in the last six months and have some winter hiking experience in the past.

Logistics: We will leave Cambridge/ Boston at 5:30 am (and stop at Hooksett for a quick break). There will be a mandatory pre-trip meeting on Thursday, 6pm to discuss logistics, safety and rent personal and as well as group safety gear

Drivers and Lottery: If you can drive your own car or are willing to drive, please edit the lottery preferences on your profile to show this. Please mark as willing to drive/rent others only if you can offer trips both ways from Boston/Cambridge area.

Costs: Please budget for $5 trip fee, $30-50 carpooling costs, any personal gear rentals (capped at $15), and any food you buy along the way. We intend to use the MIT car cost calculator and share costs equally among participants.
