Check out Lambert Packard. He designed buildings all over New England, including he Fairbanks Museum in St. J and Rollins Chapel in Hanover. I know he designed many more than that, but off the top of my head, those two come to mind. He'll show up on a google search. Generally, his buildings are...

Regardless of the veracity of this particular photograph, if you look at a "dots map" of confirmed sightings outside of their established range since 1990 (easy to find online), it looks like it is a matter of "when" not "if" they will be back here in large enough numbers to have the Northeast...

My '05 Camry made it just fine this weekend. The road is in pretty good shape!

North Woods is a great read!

Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop Tarts. The original energy bar! :D:o

Happy to help. One word for you to think about. Disturbances. Differences are caused by disturbances. Natural events (wind, flood, hurricane, fire, etc), human-caused events (tilling, pasturing, logging, fire etc.). I am still a newbie to all this stuff, but learning about it has made walking...

Tom Wessels also has a companion field guide called "Forest Forensics" which is kinda neat. If you ever get the chance to see him give a talk on "Reading the Forested Landscape" do it. You'll never look at the New England landscape the same afterwards.

Wow. I just don't know what to say. Amazing! Did you see how much the Moose's lungs were heaving? It must have been exhausted! Thanks for sharing! Definitely, the answer is "4." All of the above!

There were notes from the Caretaker in the log books at both Full Goose and Speck Pond that they had noted a serious increase in hikers being sick in the days preceding my visit two weekends ago, so it is in the Mahoosucs, not to say it is isolated to that area.

Yup. Met a bunch of afflicted folks while in the Mahoosucs two weekends ago. Northbound and southbound folks seemed to be affected in equal measure. Didn't get much sleep either night due to the noise.:( Also was in fear for my own GI health and well being, since I shared some "hiker's wine"...

Wow! The summit of Equinox sure has changed!

Amazing. After my first up close experience with a black bear, the thing I remembered most, was how light their snouts are as compared to the rest of them. Thanks for sharing your ramblings with us!

A while back I traded a few emails with Ed O'Leary at VT State Parks about my great-grandfather, who was the first caretaker at Maidstone State Park. Little did I know it would end up on their website! http://vtstateparks.blogspot.com/2012/03/great-grandfathers-legacy-in-maidstone.html

What a great day out there! and so much accomplished! Many thanks to Trailwrights for the assistance on this trail. Real progress has been made in the last several years, and more to come! Check it out, and join us for a work day. Mark September 15th on your calendars! By the way, Hal, do I...

I saw your log book entries today at Harkdale :-). Glad you had a good trip ( except for the back!). Jay- I don't think Esther Salmi has been an "official" campsite for a while, but I could be wrong! Happy Paddling!

I'll be there!

I believe that would be fine. My understanding is that they will convert that to a campsite moving forward.

saw this little guy and all his relatives yesterday in Lyme, NH! not sure what this is yet pitcher plant growing right out of a log! spade-leaved sundew some kind of orchid same flower with the leaves

Andrew, nice blog entry! I bet MBW would like to share that!

40 axes!? wow! You'll appreciate this story! When I was walking on davis path for the birdwatch thing a couple weekends back, there were some VERY LARGE CHIPS that obviously the chopper was quite proud of, as they were displayed along the trail propped up in trail-side trees for all to admire...
