4000-Footers Club: Mount Madison
Guineafowl Adventure Company is kicking off its 4,000-footers club and we want YOU to join us! Every last Saturday of each month we will be hiking a different 4,000-footer, and some trips we’ll bag a few in a single day! So if you’re just starting your peak-bagging journey – come do them all with us, or if you’re well on your way and only have certain peaks left on your list, just sign up for the ones you need!
As with all Guineafowl trips, we provide round trip transportation, backpacks, water, snacks, safety equipment (including traction for the winter months) and friendly, experienced guides! For this special club you’ll also receive a commemorative 4,000-footers journal to keep track of all your summits!
We will take the famous Valley Way trail, the start of the renowned Presidential Traverse, all the way up to the Madison Springs Hut where we will be above treeline. From the hut, we will ascend boulders and steep terrain to summit Mt Madison, with incredible views stretching out across the Presidential Range and beyond. Challenging and rewarding, with a taste of the granite and boulders common throughout the Northern Presidentials.
