Hiking

The Davis Path and the Nancy Pond Trail are just beyond the Sub Sig cabin door. Crawford Notch, Mt. Washington,the Southern Presidentials, the Moats, and more, are just a short drive away. Most of the White Mountains are close enough for an easy day trip.

Winter Hiking, Snowshoeing

Snowshoes, crampons or ice creepers, and proper clothes allow us to reach some very special places in winter.

Sub Sig Cabin Capers, September, 2018

Early Fall Hike From the Club House

With 120 mph wind reported on Mt. Washington, no one was about to tackle the higher peaks so all 8 of us (Chris, Tari, Mark Levine, Wendy Fearing, Bob Asch, Dave Roy, Nancy Neyhard, and Ewa Basinski) climbed Mt. Martha.

Martha's Mile and Owl's Head, which are all part of Cherry Mt. Clouds left over from Friday's storm gradually cleared, making for a leisurely lunch on Owl's Head.

From the top we watched the clouds lift from the Presidentials, until the summits of all but Washington had appeared.
