| Jshaw | Mt. Tecumseh Date Climbed: Sep 19, 2011 | |
| After hiking Wildcat D with my dog, I picked up the White Mountain Guide to find something easier. Tecumseh was super easy and my dog and I reached the summit at about 10:15 a.m. Since I had taken the day off and didn't want to waste it, I decided to hike Osceola too. | |

| LDuszer | New Year's Day Date Climbed: Jan 1, 2010 | |
| Solo hiked this on New Year's Day, 2010. The sound of the snow machines was annoying, but it faded away after a while. Clouds and snow prevented any views from the top. | |

| TinMan61 | Perfect Fall Day Date Climbed: Oct 11, 2008 | |
| A perfect fall day. The leaves on the ground were all kinds of colors and the sunlight made the trail sparkle. They also hid a huge amount of rocks and I don't think my ankles will be the same again! I met a lot of fun people both going up and coming down. | ||

| Brian Jenkins | warm-up Date Climbed: Sep 20, 2008 | |
| First peak of the Brian squared NE summitfest of 2008. Good warmup, not that great of views though. We did the side trail and would suggest foregoing it unless you like views of Nextel buildings. | |

| Tahawus | Mount Tecumseh Date Climbed: Jul 4, 2007 | |
| Climbed via the Mount Tecumseh Trail from Waterville Valley. Probably the easiest 4000' in the White Mountains. Had some decent views from the side trail to the ski slopes and limited views of the Sandwhich Range from Tecumseh's wooded summit. There was a mouse hiding in the carin at the top. | |

| TLP | from tripoli road Date Climbed: Jul 13, 2008 | |
| I went on a day with a bunch of clouds. There were absolutely no views, from the limited spots you have views on this mountain. I started at 0640, and got to the summit at 0820. The weather was supposed to rain in the afternoon, so I hardly spent any timne on the summit, and just went down real quick. | |

| redmond | 4th peak of the day Date Climbed: Oct 15, 2007 | |
| After climbing Mt. Tripyramid I had a few hours of sunlight and some more hiking left in me, so I made the short hike up. Decided to change things up a bit and headed down the skislopes which killed my knees but had much more interesting views than the trail. | ||

| redmond | Tecumseh Trail from Ski Area Date Climbed: Sep 29, 2007 | |
| Started off the day with the Tripyramid loop. Felt good and still had a few hours of sunlight left so headed over to Tecumseh. Nice hike up the trail, but not much of a view. Decided to take the Sosman trail over to the top of the ski area and descnded the ski slopes. Great view from there. Very interesting to see the ski area without snow as I ski it occasionally in the winter. | ||

| dirth | Short Rainy Day Hike Date Climbed: Jul 15, 2007 | |
| Let me preface this by saying every single hike I have taken this summer I have gotten rained on. I am a perfect 6 for 6. That said it was still a very nice hike. I was hiking with my mom so I needed something relatively easy. We hiked up from the Tripoli Road side which was much more secluded than the ski area side. It was raining pretty heavily as we crested the knoll before the summit and we couldn't see the true summit. The trail appeared to go down on all sides from there and we almost turned around. We finally decided to keep going in case it wasn't the summit. We were happy to find out that it wasn't and by the time we got to the true summit it had stopped raining and the clouds had lifted enough to have a view into the valley. Overall good hike, suitable for children and families. | |

| bewencher | Never again Date Climbed: May 7, 2006 | |
| Nothing like pushing ourselves to the max for our first day out of the season. We started the day with the Osceolas and then hit Tecumseh from Tripoli Road. Endless hike up Tecumseh. Just enough of a grade to tell we were going up and just enough to be mildly annoying. Ha ha. When we reached the knob before the summit we thought we were done. Then we kept going and saw the trail head up fairly steeply with a lot of snow and ice. We descended via the ski trails, which was a pain, but we needed to get down faster than dealing with the snow and ice on the trail. My boyfriend and I swear that we'll never summit it again now that it's off of our NE4000 list. The elevation is deceiving. | |

| My dad and I missed the river crossing and had to hike up one of the closed ski trails, we eventually got back on the tecumseh trail. There is a good view on the Sosman Trail heading over to the top of the ski hill. | |
