Join us for a day trip up to the Northern Presidentials! We'll be climbing Mt Adams via the Airline trail. It covers ~4500 ft of elevation gain in 3.8 miles to the summit (8.6 miles round trip), so bring your climbing legs and enthusiasm! The trail is very steep, and exposed in some places, so you should feel comfortable with big-mountain hiking and scrambling. Get ready for some super fun above-treeline time and amazing views from Adams :D
We aim to leave MIT around 6 AM and return late (9-10 PM) on Tuesday.
Feel free to email Laura Treers (ltreers@mit.edu) with questions.
