I was considering going on a hiking trip to Mount Washington in a couple of weeks... Probably weekend after next. Anyone know any of the best trails/routes to take? Anyone have any good experiances at Mount Washington?

key word man... hiking... I never said skiing. I'm not going up there with skiers and you really shouldnt ski tucks alone.

Don't waste your time with mt washingon,
go to Mt. Arrowsmith, they have much better hiking and a lot more snow.

ya, get a pack that holds your skis and gear and ski down. I've done some pretty good hikes in Washington, but I can't remember where I was at...sorry

Skiing is not for the simple minded, that's why they invented the snowboard.

definitely take you ski gear. like someone said, you wouldn't be skiing it alone. there'll be tons of cool cats up there. it is an incredible place to ski, but no better than average to hike. trust me... you'll be so damn jealous of everyone if you're up there sans skis.

no offense andy, but you made fun of a retarded kid for shitting his pants while he does the EXACT same job you do. i don't think you need to yell at anymore people considering you've already hit bottom and are destined to hell which will consist of fucking a really fat girl and listening to starr tell you about her life.

I hiked Mt Adams and Mt Madison in june, and Jefferson last summer.

There was a good amount of snow in the north facing ravines along the whole range.
The area as a whole up there is gorgeous,  the mountain are huge (East Coast standards) and the whole environment is amazing

Here are some pics, from my trip around june 26th of this year
