Boott Spur, Mountain summit in White Mountains, New Hampshire, United States.

Boott Spur is a mountain peak standing at 5,492 feet on the shoulder of Mount Washington, with steep rocky trails and open alpine vegetation above the treeline. The approach passes through exposed terrain that offers wide views across the surrounding peaks.

Early climbing routes to Mount Washington passed over this shoulder, and walkers recognized and used trails here during the 1800s. These paths were later developed into the established hiking routes seen today.

Local hiking groups maintain records of climbs at Boott Spur, with the peak registering 89 documented ascents and ranking 89th among New Hampshire summits.

Access comes via the Tuckerman Ravine Trail from the Pinkham Notch area, and sturdy footwear is necessary for the rocky terrain. The exposed heights demand caution in bad weather and proper gear for changing conditions.

Despite standing over 4,000 feet tall, Boott Spur lacks official '4000-footer' classification due to its limited prominence of 92 feet from Mount Washington's ridge.
