Bald Ledge
New Hampton, NH
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
The Bald Ledge Trail
Route: Bald Ledge Trail
Trail still has cover pretty much all the way. Generally 1-2" of hardpack with some blue ice. Made it to the ledge without using traction due to lack of pitch, but some may prefer light traction.
Amazing to see more snowpack in this small pocket than in the Squam or Belknap areas.
