Lynx is a short, easy mountain biking route in New Hampshire, about half a mile from the town of Kearsarge. It's an out-and-back ride of roughly a mile, with a high point of about 1,433 feet and a total climb of about 160 feet. The route is front-loaded, with the steepest stretch at about 0.3 miles in, and the climb is gentle enough to fit easily into a longer day on the trails around town. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in North Conway show July highs around 81°F and lows near 58°F, while winter brings highs in the 30s and regular snow days from December through February. That station sits well below the route, so temperatures on the climb run cooler. Sendero and Charlie Don't Surf are both within half a mile, and the WM: North Conway climbing area is about 2.4 miles away. For an overnight stay, Doublehead Cabin is about 7.3 miles off.
