Mount Bond

Mount Bond is a mountain summit in the Pemigewasset Wilderness Area that reaches approximately 4,700 feet and stands alongside two neighboring peaks called West Bond and Bondcliff. The region features steep slopes covered with dense forest that continues across the entire landscape.

The peak was named after George P. Bond, a Harvard University professor who dedicated himself to astronomical research in the 1800s. The naming honors his contributions to scientific advancement during that era.

The mountain belongs to the White Mountain 4000-Footers collection, a selection of peaks that New England hiking enthusiasts seek to complete.

Access is via the Lincoln Woods Trail, which leads hikers through extensive wilderness and requires multiple river crossings along the way. Visitors should prepare for demanding terrain and allow plenty of time with appropriate gear.

Water from this peak flows in opposite directions, feeding two separate river branches in the Pemigewasset system. This watershed divide is a geological feature that visitors often pass without noticing while on the summit.
