Description: Join us for a late fall hike to Liberty and Flume, two of the 48 four thousand footers near Franconia Notch. Liberty and Flume feature moderate grades almost the entire way, and (weather permitting) both summits have an outstanding view!
This hike is approximately 9.5 miles in length with approximately 4,050' of elevation gain, which we will hike at a moderate pace (aiming for 1.5mph across the entire hike not including breaks for a total hike time of around 7-8 hours).
Most of the route features moderate, though steady and consistent, climbing. Because of the time of year, however, be aware that we may very well encounter snow or ice on the trail. While we are not requiring prospective participants to own microspikes, you do need clothing and layers appropriate to late fall hiking and willingness to utilize a loaner pair of microspikes if necessary.
Participants must have recent hiking experience on similarly-strenuous peaks in New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, or New York, plus a regular, robust cardio exercise regimen and appropriate 3-season hiking gear. After registering for the hike, one of the leaders will contact you to schedule a time to talk on the phone for ~15 minutes to discuss your recent hiking experience, fitness regimen, and gear to ensure the hike is a suitable fit.
To address unforeseen challenges such as adverse weather, unacceptable trail conditions or excessive crowding, the planned trip destination, activity and/or meeting place and time may be modified. In that event, participants may elect to join in that activity or opt out. We will hold Sunday, October 25 as a backup date for this hike if weather conditions prohibit us from hiking on Saturday.

Description: Join AMC Boston 20s & 30s for a practical, scenario-based Wilderness First Aid + CPR course with Institute for Wild Med. This course is geared toward AMC leaders and leaders-in-training to be prepared to prevent, assess, and respond to emergencies when definitive care may be delayed.
This is a hybrid 16-hour course with 1 day of in-person training:

• ONLINE: Complete approximately 8 hours of required self-paced online coursework before the in-person session. This is required to attend the session. - IN PERSON: Attend the full in-person skills lab on Saturday, December 12, 2026, 9:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m., at Roudenbush Community Center, 65 Main Street, Westford, MA.
  The hands-on day will use realistic scenarios, group problem-solving, and practical skills practice. Topics include patient assessment, vital signs and patient history, bleeding control and soft-tissue injuries, sprains/fractures/dislocations and splinting, hypothermia and heat illness, burns, spinal concerns, lightning, bites and stings, allergies/anaphylaxis, shock, diabetes, asthma, and seizures. Expect to be active, work on the floor, and possibly get a little dirty.
  Successful completion of all online coursework and the full in-person session earns a Wilderness First Aid + CPR certification valid for two years.
