 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Came in on Tripoli from Waterville Valley. 2 mi of rough narrow drive, but should not require high clearance. |
|
 | Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
 | Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
One easy rockhop |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
One big blowdown between Osceola and chimney |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Saw some VERY scared dogs being forced up the chimney bypass (others were fine).I wouldn’t take a dog between the two peaks because of this unless your dog is a very confident hiker ok with narrow exposed and steep ledges. Seems extremely difficult to carry a dog through if you had to. |
|
 | Bugs: |
Black flies and mosquitos not so bad I would deal with a head net, but bad enough to make me stop rarely and briefly. |
|
 | Lost and Found: |

 | Comments: |
Great hike! Happy to get some sunshine. Rock wet in some places but definitely manageable. Ground is soft and wet but not muddy except in a few small places. Dry rock at the chimney where it matters. Remember to wear sunscreen! |
