Ascent of North Twin on 2012-10-19| Others in Party: | Mike Kagey Mike Emanuelle Will Darling ----Only Party on Mountain | | Date: | Friday, October 19, 2012 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Peak: | North Twin | | Location: | USA-New Hampshire | | Elevation: | 4761 ft / 1451 m |
Ascent Trip Report10:00am - Parked at North Twin trailhead parking lot / Haystack rd. Bushwhacked straight to The Nubble. There was a pretty good set of cliffs that we managed to find routes through/up. 11:20am - The Nubble summit. Continued bushwhacking up the ridge to Nubble Peak. 11:40am - Nubble Peak summit. There was finally somewhat of a trail as we approached the Nubble Peak summit. Signed the log book. Continued toward North Twin (bushwhack). 2:30pm - North Twin summit. OMG - tough bushwhack at the end. Most of the ridge is pretty clear due to a very high concentration of moose (saw 1). When we reached the North Twin summit (50+ mph winds), we decided to descend the trail rather than continue to South and on (good decision). 4:30pm - Back at the car.
