So why Mount Chocorua?

Really it’s quite simple.  My mother introduced my brothers and I to the beautiful outdoors of Maine and New Hampshire through downhill skiing and camping each year.  I clearly remember driving  to White Lake State Park in New Hampshire for an annual summer camping trip when she pointed out Chocorua while driving her 1976 VW microbus.  She went on to explain that she hiked to the summit with her Dover, NH high school outing club and had a distinct memory of how rigorous the hike was.  And every year when we drove through the White Mountain National Forest she would reminisce about that hike she had taken decades earlier.

So I’ve had this mountain on my bucket list since my early childhood but never got around to hiking it.  Now’s the time!
