    Vermont maps recommendations?

    I live in Central NY and hope to begin working on my NE67 this fall. I have the White Mountain Guide with all the maps, but am wondering about maps for Vermont trails. Do folks recommend the Nat Geo maps? I notice there are three. Any other recommendations, including online sources, since I...

    Article about the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps)

    I grew up hiking, picnicking, and camping in PA State Parks that were essentially created by the CCC, such as Colton Point State Park seen in this photo. I used to know a few old timers who were in the CCC. Great stories.

    Turning on the Spygot, 6-28-12

    It had been nearly four years since Fran and I first climbed Gothics and we were itching to get back up there. We decided to make it a little more interesting and access it via the Scenic Trail to Sawteeth, then climb up and over Pyramid, and finally arrive at Gothics...thus we have the Spygot...

    Lodging in Franconia Notch area?

    Thanks, everybody. Yvon, I was able to use Google translator which works pretty well. Tom, I saw that thread but it looked pretty old and focused on hostel type stuff...I'll take another look for future reference. I was able to book the 4 Seasons -- Lee said you two both are part owners of...

    Lodging in Franconia Notch area?

    Planning a mid-late September trip to Franconia Notch area and looking for lodging recommendations. Don't want to spend a fortune, but not looking for bunk-room accommodations either. Nice clean motels and/or cottages are more our thing. We'll be hiking a lot so breakfast is usually of no use...

    DEC proposing to close the main trail to Pokomoonshine from campground

    That's a fun little climb. Would be a shame to see it shut down.

    Killington Ski Trails?

    Jay, is the trail legally open? We're going to be in the vicinity the last week of June, and were hoping to climb it...but would prefer not to climb a ski trail or service roads.

    Water (the 4 elements continued) or Slide-Cornell-Witt for a big Finish

    Thanks for posting, Tom. Really a terrific day on one of the best bits of trail I've yet hiked! Fantastic way to finish! If you want to skip the TR Tom linked to above, here's the link to the pics.

    Sawteeth area

    I believe this is the ladder of which you speak. :) It's on the descent of Armstrong, heading toward Upper Wolf.

    Dix - Macomb, water sources?

    We hiked it in September, and I remember the heading down the L. Brook h-path between Carson and Macomb part of the path was a little bit of a stream. Don't remember how far down you had to go, but I'm thinking you wouldn't want to count on it.

    Winter is over, what did y'all do

    Thanks, Joe. This sounds like a smart approach for us as we plan to tackle the any season 48/67, even though we have no desire to do it in a single season. We do have an additional ~200 miles one-way (on top of your 150-200) "commute" to the whites, so this kind of strategy would likely make...
