The AMC clubs around Mt Washington like the Joe Dodge Lodge and Hermit Lake are amazing. I stayed at the lodge and skied up to Tuckerman Ravine recently. The history just on the walls and in the library is incredible, wild to see photos from 70 years ago with more folks skiing Tucks than than there are even today. Also the hospitality and meals are great
- vanilla_nut 4y agoDisclaimer: unless I'm remembering wrong, you need Avalanche training to ski Tuckerman Ravine. One of the few places in the Northeast where that's necessary!
- iamthepieman 4y agoYou don't need it. No one is checking. In the spring, it's pretty safe. Definitely want avalanche gear and training if you go in the middle of winter though. Amanoosuc ravine on the other side of My Washington is another place you face avalanches. An experienced Backcountry skier died there a few years ago after being buried under 13 feet of snow during an avalanche. Kings ravine on Adams and a few other places in the White Mountains are also known for high risk avalanches.
