Hiking the Mt. Whiteface and Passaconaway Loop...But We Didn't Reach the Top!

The Whiteface, Passaconaway loop is about 12 miles and 4,000 feet of vertical gain...And it can be a slog. In the Winter, it can be even harder.
Watch our adventure / misadventure on the famous loop. See our trumps and failures as we attempt this trip in sub-freezing temperatures, with a healthy dose of snow on the ground.

Ha! Thank you.

[@lukepaulson3428]

Beautiful scenery. Thanks!

[@rootsandpeaks]

Thank you for watching! It’s really beautiful up in the whites right now.

I'm not concerned about peak bagging, but a winter day hike to the ledges for the views sounds like a great idea to me.

[@rootsandpeaks]

It was awesome. I would highly recommend that part of the hike. Super fun!

[@christopherhoff3724]

You were .7 from the summit which is rough. I have a buddy who still needs those peaks and we're going to do it as an overnight next summer because camp rich just seems like such a cool spot.

[@rootsandpeaks]

I’ve done it before, but Jill will have to go back. An overnight sounds fun! Enjoy.

Damn kids, always ruining a good time. I think you could've fit in Passaconaway though. Man I'm jonesin' for some winter hiking. May have to wait until January...

[@rootsandpeaks]

I was jonesing! Glad to get out there. You’ll have to let me know when you make it up this way.

“That’s a bum touch.”

[@rootsandpeaks]

Several of those, if I recall.
