I just got back from a four day trip helping The Cohos Trail build bog bridges in Gadwah Notch and then helping Kim Nilsen maintain his trail from Table Rock to Dixville Peak. There was a lot of discussion amongst the group about Kelsey Notch and getting the short run of the CT off of the ATV...

That is a whole lot of random and incriminating information. Those photos would help for sure.

Moose in ice gulch I remember that hike! Dave M came down the trail to warn us that a very frustrated moose was trapped in a hole in the jumble of rocks so we bushwhacked around that section of trail. Good memories from that gathering. Not so good for the moose. Ice gulch is a fun and...

I rode the Cabot Trail touring style on a crossbike and I can honestly say that the food along the trail was pretty bad and boring. We started and ended the ride in Mabou and spent the evening listening to killer music at the Red Shoe. That is the only place that I can recommend. Food was good...

Yes I don't understand how they allow all of those people without facilities. Seriously gross.

Wow. Has this become a forum for folks to talk about how great they are as hikers? When I first joined this place it was a welcoming and helpful environment. Reading all of these posts makes me feel like I am in rush hour traffic with every driver thinking that they are the best; eagerly ready...

Nice pun!!!

Yes What's life without a bit of humor? I highly doubt anyone is going to single out my post and ignore all of the others. Was I supposed to include a :D ?

I just use the light on my cell phone. Why carry anything else?

Maybe both? Hmm.

You mean, "don't forget your dog, **** bag?" Or, "don't forget your ******* bag?"

My tent platform in Crawford Notch made it, but the bridge to get to it didn't. Guess I have to buy some waders.

These legal or illegal site locations should be done via PM and not on the forum pages. Let's keep these hidden places hidden? Eh? Makes sense to me.

Great info everyone. Thank you. I will be using the NP Trail through Cold River, yes.

I am thinking of doing a loop around the Seward Mountains in a few weeks and I would rather not sleep in lean-tos. What are the options for tenting in that area? Can I just tent outside of a lean-to? Thanks.

Yes. That was my thinking. Glad to hear I wasn't just being a grump about things! :)

I am reading this thread.

Yes: "Maybe the "fear" trend on this planet is crossing over into the hiking world?"

I find it kind of disturbing that most of these discussions about rescues are focused on carelessness and getting charged (or not). Really, what does it matter? The rescues will happen, the carelessness will continue...forever. People have been doing it...forever. Just go out and be prepared and...
