Reply to comment by Sonnenblumenwiese in Which is better day trip for this time of year - Cape Cod or mountain climb in the Whites? by kohlrabi_codex
Ahem.
The White Mountains are ALWAYS dangerous. Do your research. Keep an eye on the weather and, I cannot stress this enough, always have proper gear.
December is no time to be fucking around in the White Mountains on a day trip. A young lady perished up on one of the lesser mountain ranges just last month.
It can legit snow squall on top of Mount Washington in July and August. Do not fuck with the Whites this time of year unless you're a very experienced hiker.

When I posted this, the only other comment was urging a white mountains hike seemingly (to me) with the tone of "it's been so warm and the mountains are more interesting" and that part of my comment was in relation to the previous poster.
