SSS 48 - The Plan

Summer Single Season 48 White Mountains Four Thousand Footers

Past experience:

  • hiked several 4K'ers (both sides Kinsman Ridge, Franconia Ridge, Pemi Loop, Wildcat Ridge, Washington, Moosilauke...)
  • but avoided keeping track for a lifetime 48 because just wanted to enjoy, not obsess
