Pitchoff Mountain

Pitchoff Mountain rises to 3,497 feet along Route 73 between Keene and Lake Placid, offering multiple open ledges with direct views of the High Peaks across the valley. The ridge traverse covers roughly 5 miles with several summit knobs — steep in sections, but the exposed rock slabs make it a reliable viewpoint hike.
