What hikes in the White Mountains are the most dangerous?
The degree of danger associated with any hike is subjective based on the hiker's general hiking experience, physical fitness, safety training and familiarity with the trails and terrain in the region. Many hikes are considered dangerous due to their steep pitches and exposure to the elements, while others can be considered dangerous due to less activity and poor trail blazing, such as bushwhacks. Other factors such as inclement weather can dramatically increase the danger of even a moderate hike. Proper preparedness, familiarity of the trails, understanding of incoming weather patterns and communicating your plans and timing to another person helps reduce risk in hiking the White Mountains, but one always assumes some degree of risk. A simple sprained ankle can mean life or death in bad weather, as the White Mountains, and notably the Presidential Range and Mount Washington, are notorious for life-threatening weather. Combined with very exposed routes and lack of safety equipment, even the most experienced hikers have fallen victim to the White Mountains. For experienced hikers seeking more adventurous routes, one might refer to the popular list "The  Terrifying 25" which provides a list of routes that have steep inclines, a lot of exposure, fun ladders and caves, among other features. Huntington Ravine on Mount Washington is considered the most dangerous in all the Whites for its erratic weather, steep, exposed trails with drop-offs, and less traveled by other hikers.
Que caminhadas nas Montanhas Brancas são as mais perigosas?
O grau de perigo associado a qualquer caminhada é subjetivo com base na experiência geral de caminhada do caminhador, aptidão física, treinamento de segurança e familiaridade com as trilhas e o terreno da região. Muitas caminhadas são consideradas perigosas devido a seus pontos íngremes e exposição aos elementos, enquanto outras podem ser consideradas perigosas devido a menos atividade e má trail blazing, como bushwhacks. Outros fatores, como o clima incômodo, podem aumentar dramaticamente o perigo de até uma caminhada moderada. A preparação adequada, a familiaridade com as trilhas, a compreensão dos padrões climáticos que chegam e a comunicação de seus planos e tempo para outra pessoa, ajudam a reduzir o risco de caminhar nas Montanhas Brancas, mas sempre se assume algum grau de risco. Um simples torcedor de tornozelo pode significar vida ou exposição a incêndios, como as Montanhas Brancas, e não muito inclinadas as cavernas do Presidente e as escadas, que não são consideradas muito perigosas para a vida.
