I tried this about a year ago, but a stomach bug and 85 MPH winds kind of put a damper on things. This time around, I also brought a hiking partner, Frank. We’ve done several winter trips together so far, but this would be his first time in the White Mountains. Similar to last year’s trip, the plan was to set up a base camp at higher elevation, followed by a lighter weight trek up to the top of Mount Washington if weather conditions and visibility were agreeable. If the conditions were questionable, we made a back-up plan to scurry up the side of the nearer Mt Monroe. And of course, if the weather really got bad, we would just play it safe and stay below tree line.
