Meredith is one of my favorite parts of the state. Great restaurants and views. If you have the time, a day trip up through the White Mountains is well worth the drive.

Thank you for the tip, I’ll definitely try to fit it in 🤍 unlikely we’ll be up at dawn 😁 but for sure we’ll be mindful of clothing now that we know

Thin layers and plan on taking things on and off all day!

In all honesty, black flies were only ever a real problem for me on one hike I went on in my whole life. Also, one weekend my daughter had an issue with them but I had bought her a special children's all natural bug spray which I think was more of an attraction than a deterrent! Turns out it did not contain deet. I've been in NH my whole life and they've never been a real problem.
