Adventures using the AMC's high hut system explore the rugged beauty of New Hampshire's White Mountains. Participants will learn about mountain ecology and public lands as they build camaraderie and conquer the challenge of New England's highest peaks. Activities include day hiking, trail work, and backpacking to the huts. Varied levels of outdoor experience and skills are welcome, and we tailor our trips to be welcoming and inclusive of all participants, no matter their experience level. Participants should expect to carry a backpack with their clothing and sleeping bag while hiking and expect that trails will vary from moderate to challenging at times. All will enjoy this trip, which will emphasize the group experience as well as skills development.
This program is intended for ages 13 to 18.
