The Gorge Brook or Glencliff/Carriage Road trails are both good options. Gorge Brook Trail is well protected until the last few hundred feet, where as the last mile along the Carriage Road on the Glencliff approach is out in the open, so you get more of the above treeline experience in the high winds.<br /><br />One of the easier 4,000 footer to hike is Mount Pierce, last couple of hundred feet is above treeline with tremendous views!<br /><br />Hope you get a nice weather day!<br /><br />-ChrisChris Daileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00225481004115172981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279365566627462854.post-5001263815052842422017-11-20T10:02:26.456-05:002017-11-20T10:02:26.456-05:00Hi Chris,

Any good recommendations? we're fairly experienced hikers, not as much in winter but being from Canada we're well equipped for the cold. I've heard Lafayette and Mount Moosilauke are great. Do you think these might be too intense for our first time?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05256267216611340747noreply@blogger.com
