Presidential Traverse

So we're going to plan a couple of those.

There's in that same mountain range, it's called the Presidential Traverse.

It's like, I think it's five, maybe six different mountains in a 23 mile stretch with over well over 9,000 feet of elevation gain.

So we're going to plan some winter traverses of those.

Okay guys, today we're going through some of the toughest White Mountains ultramarathon style routes that you might not have heard of.

So no classic routes on this, no Pemi Loop, Prezi Traverse, Hut Traverse, etc.

These are kind of like the up-and-coming, lesser-known, but super crazy, super gnarly, technical, whatever you want to call them, routes that are starting to get more action.

I put out a poll, so I got a ton of input on different routes, what people think are the hardest routes.

We're going to go through some of the rules first.

So like I said, no classic routes.

Initially, I had posted this and I thought like, all right, no Pemi Loop, no Prezi Traverse, no Hutt Traverse, no Mahusik Traverse, and no White Mountains 100 because that's the White Mountains, the Run the Whites Throwdown, White Mountains Bounty efforts.

So each of those routes have $1,000, $2,000 on them.

Well, I did a section hike that I started in Hanover, New Hampshire, right at the Vermont border, uh, around Dartmouth.

And I just finished the Presidential Traverse, uh, and I'm heading to 16 near Pinkham Notch.

Yeah.

And you've done, you've [laughs] done this apparently in the snow, which s- strikes me as bloody lunatic.

So I remember one run specifically.

I had run the Presi Traverse and then made it a, a picnic style.

So I ran the Presi Traverse and then had stashed a bike and biked the 19 miles back.

So it was this big, like almost 40-mile loop, half on run, half bike.

And so I felt great on the run.
