17 October 2017: Mount Willard

It being peak foliage in this section of NH I wanted to go and crush a quick hike up Mt Willard near Crawford Notch. I knew this one would be amazing as I have been on this ridge before when I did Tom / Field / Willey / Avalon some time ago.

Peak Elevation: 2865 ft.
Elevation Gain: 1100 ft.
Trail: Mt Willard Trail
Length: 4.0 mi
Time on Trail: 1015
Time off Trail: 1200

The trail is not very long but has some moderate steepness to certain sections. The work to get to the top is absolutely worth the effort. Doable for people of many abilities - I did see someone who was probably in her 60's walking up with her husband. Dogs all over the place - I saw 3 Bernese Mountain dogs on this trail! I had a little snack at the top and then descended.
