White Mountains Hut Traverse DNF
from Run Mountain Peaks · host Andrew Wojciak
This week I talk about my recent DNF on the notorious Hut Traverse. The Hut Traverse links all 8 AMC Huts in the White Mountains in an epic 45 mile 16k ft of gain route over the best of the best Whites terrain. You start at the Carter Notch hut in of the coolest spots in the Whites, traverse over the Presidential range over the highest and gnarliest terrain in the region, then take the A to Z trail into the Pemi across the Twinway and Garfield Ridge, before summit Mt. Lafayette and heading down the Old Bridle trail. You then head up to Lonesome Lake Hut, but I wouldnt know about that. I made it a total of 44 of out 45 miles. Yikes. First DNF. I talk about the first half feeling great and everything going according to plan, and then got into how the second half turned bad and why I bailed at mile 44 uninjured.Give it a listen. Or this week don't. Up to you.YOUTUBEhttps://www.youtube.com/@runmountainpeaksTRAINING & NUTRITION INFOhttps://substack.com/@runmountainpeaksFREE ENDURANCE TRAINING GUIDEhttps://www.runmountainpeaks.com/run-coachingFOLLOWInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/runmountainpeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61588592565447TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@runmountainpeaksThreads: https://www.threads.com/@runmountainpeaks?hl=enX: https://x.com/runmtnpeaks
