Philip Carcia

Philip Carcia is a hiker, runner, and visual storyteller whose athletic and creative work is rooted in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

Philip is best known in the Northeast for completing the White Mountains Grid in a single year, the White Mountains Guide in a single summer, setting the Fastest Known Time for a winter round of the New Hampshire 48, and, most recently, climbing 200 4,000-footers in a single winter season—the most on record.

With multiple thru-hikes and nearly 30,000 lifetime miles behind him, Philip continues to be drawn to long distance projects that prioritize creativity alongside strength, speed, endurance, and grit.
