Osceola from Waterville Valley Ski Resort

     The summit of Osceola is a big, flat rock with excellent views eastward of the Tripyramids and southward of Waterville Valley. Osceola and its sister to the east, East Osceola, are two of the 48 designated Four Thousand Footers in New Hampshire. If you are attempting to climb these, it makes sense to summit both on the same hike, an easy endeavor. East Osceola is a mile away over a rocky ridge with some steep sections. Trees stand on the summit of East Osceola and there is no view. The Osceolas can be accessed from Tripoli Road or the Kancamagus Highway (NH 112). MountainSummits.com has hiked them from both roads.
