Get ready for an epic 12-week training journey leading up to the unforgettable Mt. Washington trip—customized just for you, with a bonus discount and free gym access if you level up your training! Let’s crush this together! $215 to join. 9 spots available!
On Day 1, we’ll kick off with a 2.7-mile hike, gaining 2,500 feet of elevation as we climb the Ammonoosuc Trail to the stunning Lake of the Clouds Hut. After a well-earned lunch, we’ll lighten our packs and settle into our bunks before taking on the final 1.4 miles and 1,250 feet of elevation to the summit of Mt. Washington—together as a team! Once we reach the top, we'll take in the jaw-dropping views that only Washington can offer. Then, we'll make our way back down, ready to enjoy a hearty, warm dinner (provided), a dip in the crystal clear Lake of the Clouds, some great company, and the dazzling night sky above. It's a day packed with camaraderie, stunning scenery, and memories you'll never forget!
On Day 2, we'll rise and shine with the hut Croo and kick off the day with a delicious, home-cooked family-style breakfast. Then, we’ll set off on a 2.7-mile journey, descending 2,525 feet back to the trailhead. For those who prefer a little extra adventure, the Cog Railway tickets are available for purchase separately, offering a unique and scenic ride down. No matter how you choose to descend, this final leg of our journey will be one for the books!
I will suggest everyone purchases a Hiker Safty Card. It's not required but strongly suggested. Read about and purchase here.
