Ha ha ha, yes, Stan --dogs, cats, exotics, horses, birds --you name it!

Dang! That's en epic day. I bow down to you :p

I really don't like to ford that crossing. I'm really glad it was dark when I did. TimC carried Terra *and* held my hand. I am not ashamed! :)

Wilderness regs so ten or less however I somehow doubt we could find ten people crazy enough to want to hike this trail :-) Congrats, DayTrip. Sounds like if we go soon enough we can follow your blood trail.

Thanks, Dan -- I'm still here albeit I need to dust off some cobwebs. :D IMHO VFTT is the hands-down BEST source of trusted info on the White Mountains! Sure there are others sources, but crappy beta posted here is quickly weeded out. FB is OK but again, IMHO, there is no substitute for...

Yay. That is all. :D

ugh..that's the last trial I have to redline in the DRW and I was hoping to read better news! I think I will continue to procrastinate on this one unless someone wants to form a small party.

Congrats, I've always wanted to approach Vose from C. Was very tempted while on C yesterday but hadn't planned for it. :-)

York Pond Trail is lovely this time of year. Feel better!

Well said.

Well, tomorrow's the BIG DAY!

Great great post, Dennis. Michael- I think you misunderstood my intent. You asked about perceptions of Meet Ups, why people tend to lump them together in their minds. I honestly shared that, given past experience, the "thought" of a Meet Up Group "conjures an image" in my mind. That does not...

I read the listing and was disappointed not to see any mention of LNT ethics or Wilderness Regs - something I would personally be looking for to gauge the "Group Mind" of any organized hike I would be considering - purely a personal preference and filter. Sorry to say for me, the mere mention...

Skiguy, you make excellent points. :-)

Nice job, Bec.

I'm an admitted cynic and the whole Meet Up culture has been a thorn in my hiking side since inception (putting all up front here) but all that aside, I read the post/invite linked and I'm disappointed there is no mention of Wilderness Regs Group Size Limitations and a statement on how that will...

Group size regulations to minimize impact on Wilderness *and* respect that the "wilderness experience" of others may be negatively impacted by a hoard of hikers/runners.

We don't get out as much as we used to..life, the drive and competing interests....but it was decided earlier in the week that a Zealand Bonds Traverse was really a "must-have" summer kind of walk. Hope to be doing one every year at least for many years to come. We had the pleasure this time...

Lots of good stuff, there!
