You can google plenty of info, and definitely get an AMC guide or some other appropriate trail guide/map. I generally hike NH where I've bagged all the 4'000', some several times. My one trip to Katahdin was a combination rafting/hiking trip. Unfortunately, we didn't reach the summit, because one of our guys suffered a serious case of heat exhaustion. It was a June trip during an unusual hot spell. Early season also means lots of black flies.
