Thus far it appears that Nissan and Hydroflask are winning with Hydroflask in the lead. I have one from Starbucks and two from EMS. None of them fit the bill but Starbucks is not bad. It's tall, narrow and holds approx 3 cups. I am going to try to boil water and fill Starbucks about 11 pm...

I joined J Carter and voted MYOB. I don't like that term but don't care for "dumb poll" either. I am way to advanced in years to care about mileage and elevation gain. My priority is fun, and only fun. My body dictates mileage and gain on any given day, and no two days are alike. It's...

Not true....I descend downstairs into my living room or downstairs into my yard, and occasionally into my basement.

Is your Swiss Mt Dog living in the house in an overheated home and spending minimal time outside? Mine is a "house" dog but is out most of the day. Her choice. The colder, the better, and the heat in the house can be down to 55-60. I have had to shut the heat off in my truck and freeze...

Really enjoyed your trip report. Love VT and the LT! You did good. :)

Those pics are intense! :)

I think the patch reflect what I often think at this age. You should not quit even if the day comes when you have to use a walker and hike on easy trails. Anything is possible. We might have to modify our adventures but we certainly can still enjoy them. To me if reflects "tenacity in pursuit!"

Have you thought of getting another dog? It could be the motivation he needs to "take a hike", and you would have an alternate to go hiking with if he showed no interest. This is a great organization and the young woman who writes the trail reports does a very thorough job describing how...

NIce! Looking forward to checking it out! :)

Hking lady....you are doing the right thing not pushing him beyond his limits. Whatever the reason, there are dogs that simply do not enjoy hiking. My first Akita would be OK doing daily walks to our local reservoir, at her pace only, and loved to hang out. I took her up a trail a few...

A hearty congratulations to you. You are an inspiration. Stay strong! :cool:

Can someone please start a "dog" thread or a "should we pay for our rescues thread"??? PLEASE! And as Raven said "we do love controversy". There is always the temptation to look and see if someone has said something really stupid yet, but hopefully we won't.

YOu are right on. I use them in the freezer to keep some soup, casseroles etc. cold. I freeze those to and hope that I slow the thaw down enough with my block ice that it last me the 5-7 days it takes to get the power back on. I jam it all in the freezer. I will try the snow/ice, with...

We are soooo LUCKY! I don't think the vast majority, if not all of us, would have any problem surviving in this kind of storm and worse. I do love having an IPHONE because I know I can charge it on my car battery and perhaps access a site I might really want info from. I froze blocks of ice...

I totally agree with what your saying and would do the same. It's just that killing should not be the only option if there is something more humane we can do to prevent the problem. Once you reinforce your home, etc and they still find a way in, dispatching them might very well be the only...

I like Tom_D's idea of making your own patch and awarding it to yourself. :cool:

Red or grey...big or small....they are only trying to survive. There lives are as important to them as ours are to us. They to have families. Photo Tufts Wildlife Clinic

The one of the shelter is my favorite to but they are all great! :)

Very nice trip reports and pics. Enjoyed the slide photos as I have never been on the Tripyramids.
