Guided Lodge to Hut Adventure: Alpine Wildflowers

June 16-19
Joe Dodge Lodge/Mizpah Spring Hut/Lakes of the Clouds Hut

---

Welcome to spring in the alpine zone! Enjoy backcountry lodging with traditional mountain hospitality in a spectacular setting. Join us as we discover the wonders of life above treeline in the White Mountains. We will take advantage of the Mount Washington Auto Road where we will be dropped off above treeline. This will give us plenty of time to hike through the Alpine Garden to Mizpah Spring Hut and then to Lakes of the Clouds hut. Two nights at the huts will give us ample opportunity to examine the delicately exquisite alpine flowers, discuss alpine adaptations, and compare alpine communities. 

This trip involves moderate hiking on steep, rocky terrain. Weather can change quickly and become cold and windy, so be sure to bring extra layers. Participants should also be in good hiking shape and have proper hiking boots.

Minimum age 18 (16 if accompanied by an adult).
