点评:Mt. Kearsarge (South) – The Winslow Trail - Warner & Wilmot, NH – 7/4/26.
Arrived at 830am. $4 fee per person to enter, paid to the ranger at the gate house. Roads leading in were paved and in good condition. Paved, large parking lot, not even ¼ full.
Multiple, clean restrooms, picnic tables and nice views.
Trails very clearly defined and marked with red blazes on trees and rocks.
A bit of everything – flat sections, dirt, roots, rocks and large slabs – no boulders to climb over however. Stating the obvious now, but the slabs could be very slipper if wet. The trail is basically straight up and down with no switch-backs. There were no water crossings or water sources on this trail.
Weather conditions on our hike were 76dgrs, partly sunny, light but steady breeze, NO bugs and a bit humid. Trail was dry. Reached the summit by 930am, not many people. There is a fire tower (that you can’t get into, but you can climb almost to the top and a large radio antenna tower at the summit).
The views were spectacular. You are above tree line at the summit so 360dgr views. We saw several dogs that had no trouble getting up.
When we got down around 10:45am, the lot had filled up some but there were still ample spaces left. There is also a winter parking lot (dirt) a little way down the road before the main gate if the main lot had been full, you could park and walk in.
We are in our mid 50’s, decent shape, and have completed the 48, NH 4,000+ mountains and we found this to be easy (that’s not to say we were not huffing and puffing by the time we reached the summit). We hike heavy and slow with my pack weighing it at 42lbs.
Great hike – we likely won’t do it again as we are working on the “52 With a View List” and have many more to go……
翻译:凯尔萨奇山(南)——温斯洛步道——新罕布什尔州华纳和威尔莫特——2026年7月4日。
早上8:30到达。每人4美元入场费,在入口处交给护林员。通往步道的道路已铺设路面,路况良好。宽敞的停车场也已铺设路面,但车位不足四分之一。
设有多个干净的洗手间、野餐桌,景色优美。
步道清晰,树木和岩石上都有红色标记。
路面状况多样——平坦路段、泥土路、树根路、岩石路和大石板路——但没有需要攀爬的巨石。需要说明的是,如果石板路潮湿,可能会非常滑。步道基本上是直上直下,没有之字形弯道。这条步道上没有涉水路段或水源。
我们徒步时的天气状况是气温76华氏度(约24摄氏度),晴间多云,微风轻柔但稳定,没有蚊虫,略微潮湿。步道干燥。早上9点半到达山顶,人不多。山顶有一座瞭望塔(不能进去,但可以爬到几乎顶峰),还有一个大型无线电天线塔。
景色非常壮观。山顶高于树线,可以360度全方位欣赏美景。我们看到好几只狗,它们爬上去毫不费力。
大约10点45分下山时,停车场已经停了一些车,但仍然有很多空位。如果主停车场满了,在主入口前不远处还有一个冬季停车场(土路),您可以把车停在那里然后步行进入。
我们都五十多岁了,身体状况不错,已经登顶了新罕布什尔州48座海拔超过4000英尺的山峰,觉得这次徒步很轻松(当然,登顶时我们也气喘吁吁)。我们背着42磅重的背包,走得很慢。
很棒的徒步体验——我们可能不会再来一次了,因为我们正在挑战“52座风景优美的山峰”清单,还有很多山峰等着我们去征服……
