Welch-Dickey is a 5 mile loop about 2 hours from Boston. There's an elevation gain of ~1,700 ft with some exposed granite slabs, so this will be a great opportunity to practice using microspikes (maybe even crampons!), as well as to test your fancy above-treeline gear in a cozy below-treeline hike. This is a great hike for experienced summer hikers who may be relatively new to winter hikes.
