Itinerary description
Crampons and ice axe are required. Above tree line wind and wind-chill can be very extreme. There is one section that requires a bit of technique using crampons and ice axe. If you go on a busy day as me you can expect to have a bottle neck on this section going up and going down that is reflected on the time it took us to do the route. Visibility was very bad the last 300m to submit dificult to find the lath. Check https://mountwashington.org/weather/higher-summits-forecast/ for planing the trail.
