The Fifty in the Fall
Students hike back to campus from Moosilauke in a Dartmouth tradition.
In a time-honored, and grueling, tradition, students hike the 50 miles from Moosilauke Ravine Lodge back to Hanover in a Dartmouth Outing Club event known as The Fifty.
More than 30 students completed the trek on Oct. 7, with only a few having to cut their hikes short.
