Saturday September 14th:

Roy has invited everyone to join him on a hike of Mt. Washington in September in memory of  MIT police officer Sean Collier.

Those of you planning on attending this hike should get your name on the board at the club 

A list of essential items to bring will be out this week

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We hope you can join us for the 7th Annual Sean Collier Climb to Mount Washington.  In an effort to attract more hikers,  Sean's father Allen has chosen a trail that is less time consuming than the Ammonoosuc.   On September 14th, please rendezvous at the AMC (American Mountain Club) Pinkham’s Notch Visiting Center, @ 7:00 a.m. located at 361 NH-16 Gorham, NH, 03581.  We will stage there to ascend Tuckerman’s Ravine.

Tuckerman’s Ravine is a beautiful and much shorter hike than the Ammonoosuc Trail, which we have climbed every year up until this season.  It is approximately  2 to 2 1/2 hour hike to the top, compared to the usual 4 to 4 1/2 hour of Ammonoosuc.  There are shuttle vans available at the peak which will bring you back down to the parking lot.   Otherwise, we are planning on hiking down the Lion’s Head Trail.   Dogs are welcome to hike, however, they are not permitted in the transportation vans.

The parking area at Pinkham’s Notch has a restaurant where there is food and beverage.  Many of us will meet for lunch after the climb.   Please save the date.  We had a great showing last year, and hope to do the same for this year.  Also, please forward/Facebook this email to anyone you think may be interested, even if you are not planning to attend the hike yourself.
