Mount Field, Mountain summit in White Mountains, New Hampshire, US.
Mount Field rises to 1,319 meters (4,324 feet) in the Willey Range and is surrounded by dense coniferous forests. Multiple trails at its base connect the summit to neighboring peaks.
The mountain was named after Darby Field, who in 1642 made the first documented European ascent of Mount Washington. This link to early exploration history defines part of its heritage.
The summit belongs to the New England Hundred Highest, a list that draws hikers interested in collecting peak achievements across the region.
Access starts at the Crawford Depot parking area, where you cross railroad tracks to reach the trailhead. The Avalon Trail then winds through forest for about 2.5 miles to the summit.
The summit sits on the Willey Range Trail, which connects to Mount Tom and Mount Willey nearby. This arrangement allows hikers to reach three separate peaks during a single outing.
