Winter Katahdin

Went on a guided winter ascent of Mt Khatadin in February 2023 with my son and the Equinox guide. This was an amazing experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Our guide (Noah) was well prepared and highly experienced and prepped us well in the weeks leading to oir trip. He guided with a light hand giving us confidence and allowing for a genuine Mountaineering experience of a classic epic peak. We always felt safe with our guide. I highly recommend this for anyone with hiking experience that wants the fun, challenge, and skill-set associated with a thrilling winter ascent.
