    NH 48 Direttissima North to South 8/13 - 8/23

    Really compelling stuff. Thanks for the report and pix. Soounds like you two had a great adventure; you know it sounds good when it makes you want to go out and do the same (I got over it quickly). Most intriguing, MEB- those Dunham Waffle Stompers you are wearing? Ok, not most intriguing...

    No problem- as we walked out we felt the same thing. Easy on the legs AND the eyes. We talked that that walk could be a nice destination of its own on a day when summits aren't the priority... Enjoy the trails..........

    Thanks Jay- we had amazingly clear weather all day. Although the winds and cool temps (40's and 30mph winds) on the Summit in the morning had us off the summit fast!

    Mt Washington 148 Year Celebration

    Take this as a notice of fun or warning- I heard on the radio and confirmed on the Auto Road website that Saturday August 8 if you drive up the auto Road and have an "This car climbed Mt. Washinton" sticker on the car already you get free passage on the road. Good for consumers, but could be a...

    I are going back in September with some old guys ;) and Traveler Loop is on the schedule. This is with my 12 year old semi hiking son so I am going to likely try some of the other easier hikes- plus some canoeing and fishing- we are staying at the Upper Pond Lean -to. Quick trip so we'll take...

    Patten Maine

    Thanks Spencer. Helpful. Will likely stop off and get sandwhiches for lunch and try and spread what little money we have around. THanks for the link too. Read some of it- will try and finish up later. Makes an interesting read. Never been to this part of the park so looking forward to it.

    Patten Maine

    THanks- I thought/hoped Patten was similar to Medway/Millinockett. No prblem in making sure i have what I need in advance and using the local place in Patten as emergency backup. Nice shot by the way!

    What's your opinion of "Hiker Dies/Gets Lost" threads ?

    I like to read them in the hopes I can learn one more thing I should look for/expect in trying to be safe during my trips. I expect that type of info would not be subject to regional limitations (well, some times it may but not always). And whats not local can end up being someplace one of...
