Hey! I'm a freelance writer and guidebook author. I've authored "New Hampshire's 52 With A View - A Hiker's Guide", serve as editor of Appalachian Mountain Club's "Southern New Hampshire Trail Guide", and and am co-editor of the "White Mountain Guide", also for AMC. I'm currently beginning work on the 6th Edition of AMC's Southern New Hampshire Trail Guide, which will be published in 2025. I live in southern New Hampshire and can usually be found wandering throughout the state's mountains and forests.
Exploring New Hampshire is one of my favorite things to do, both on foot and in the car. There’s just so much to see and experience. Most people who visit here probably stick to the major highways to get to their destination and may miss a lot in doing so. To really get a feel for the Granite State you need to get on to the secondary highways and back country roads. One scenic drive in New Hampshire encompasses much of what makes New Hampshire great, and it’s a trip you should put on your to-do list.
