The AMR parking lot is large with no capacity problem this time of year. Open 24/7. It is plowed in winter, but being private property it may not always be cleared till they get around to it.

The $8 plan only allows sending prewritten (check in, aka preset) messages, not typed messages.

It is going to be tough in that price range these days. I have a Mammut softshell which is the predecessor of the current model with Gore Infinium fabric (previously it was called Windstopper). Men’s Ultimate VII SO Hooded jacket.

Martens are common in the Adirondack High Peaks and skillful at raiding packs and lean-tos. Some have become bold and hang out at popular intersections.

The Scree 32 has been my standard winter pack for at least three years. No problem with durability. Comfort is good with the weight mainly on the lower back pad rather than the hip belt.

I think that rascal Putin has something to do with it.

The rep is incorrect. Delamination is a chemical degradation of the polymer. It is not “wear and tear”, especially on the interior of the fabric. I had this happen several years ago on an Osprey pack. They gave me a new one.

Mike, take a look at the LaSportiva TX3 (fabric upper) or TX4 (leather upper) approach shoes. I left the Raptors because of poor upper durability and poor wet traction with the Ultras. The TX series have similar fit and great full lacing. Two years and they are holding up well. Wet traction on...

I have ordered a new W10 computer and soon will be getting a taste of my own medicine, hoping I can get Mapsource and TOPO! running again. What Alan is saying is that the gpx file saved in the computer can be opened under the ‘handhelds’ menu in TOPO!. I still prefer Mapsource as a simple file...

You should not have a parking problem except on busy summer or holiday weekends. It is the overflow parking for the Garden lot. I assume you have researched the ascent. I tell people it is like climbing Mt Marcy in half the distance. Blueberry alone is a 2000 ft climb in 2.3 miles. The trail...

Thanks all, for your comments and discussion. I noticed last night and confirmed today that the cause of the noise and concomitant increase in ascent/descent was having the unit plugged into USB power. It does not occur when under battery power. I also connected the USB cord to the iPhone...
