We had planned today to go up Mt. Washington on another cool, crisp, summer day. We began on the Jewell Trail and not far into the hike found that the bridge over the Ammonoosuc River was washed out in the heavy spring rains. There was no way we could cross safely so we retraced our steps and went up instead Mts. Avalon, Field and Wiley. Wiley and Field are the 4000 footers but Avalon has the superior views. We went up the Avalon trail to the Wiley Range Trail which crosses Field and Wiley. Back down the Wiley Range Trail to the A-Z trail to the Avalon Trail.
Distance: 8.8 miles Climb: 3050 feet; Elevation: Mt.Field 4340 ft; Wiley 4285 ft.
