The 9.5-mile Moat Traverse is one of North Conway’s classic hikes. I have always done this traverse north to south, and recently on a cloudy and mild Monday I continued that tradition, starting at the Diana’s Baths parking lot on West Side Road, and finishing at the Moat Trail parking lot on Dugway Road.

I have been able to write a weekly hiking column for many years by allowing opportunities to happen, rather than being a stickler about planning them. The same goes for whether I hike alone or with others. I welcome both, and this time I welcomed doing the Moat traverse alone.
