About the event
Chicks on Cliffs Difficulty Rating: 5 out of 5. This hike has intense elevation gain and strenuous mileage.
Join Chicks on Cliffs for an advanced hike/trail run through the Presidential Range. This is a 20.3-mile hike with 8,536 ft of elevation gain. You will summit 10 major peaks (and some smaller peaks) of the Presidential Range. AMC huts will be dispersed throughout the trail for water and food stops. Rides will be arranged between leaders and participants to place some cars at the start, some at the end, and some at a bailout point at Pinkham Notch (about halfway). Participants should plan to hike up the major sections of elevation gain with an option to trail run the ridges/descents.
As this hike has different start and end points, rides will have to be arranged. Participants will meet at the endpoint (Webster - Jackson trailhead) to leave cars for the end,…
