Hey everyone, we’ll be heading up to the Pinkham Notch area on Sunday to hike the Wildcats! This mountain is located in the Carter-Moriah Range and consists of 5 peaks (A,B,C,D,E). We will start at AMC’s Joe Dodge Lodge at Pinkham Notch and hike along the Wildcat Ridge Trail. This is a moderate/difficult 8.4 mile hike with ~3100ft of elevation gain and some steep sections. The forecast is calling for snow+wind, so it will be a great opportunity to practice hiking in true winter conditions!!
Gear: Microspikes/crampons, proper waterproof layers+boots, goggles/face cover may be necessary if it's snowing!
