I love it! It makes me a little bit sad that so few kids can say this. My friend who I into'd to the Whites when he was 14 eventually went off to college at UMAINE Orono. He was never bothered with "trivia" so in his 3rd year he was "homeless" and completely undaunted. He had his tent an...

Most interesting. It really is a wake up call to get up close and personal to people who have little or no knowledge of the basics and what is required to sustain oneself when you are out of your comfort zone. This is why I always feel for people who wander about the mountains unprepared...

Too funny! :D:D:D We will send you a Christmas card.

This post was meant to be a "reply" to the above post by E Rug but I didn't post it as such. Better late than never I guess. What I have done with people who thru sheer lack of knowledge refuse to carry the gear, I don't hike with them. Still recall my one big incident up in a motel in...

Very beautiful pics. Intense. Thanks for posting them.

WE are very superior...each in our own way. Man/women just complement each other. Even my boy dogs are unique and different from my girl dogs. Not better, just different. It's the way of the sexes. From New Oxford dictionary: In many different fields, the complement of X is something that...

Watch out....my post was deleted when I made reference to "binders" back on page 1. :D IMHO it was quite funny!

Dittos Mad River. "An ounce of prevention".....we know the rest.:)

And another "dog" fight! :eek:

I can think of 3 1. Because my friends don't think winter hiking is fun. In fact most don't believe 3 season hiking is fun. 2 . I wouldn't be solo if you let me bring my dog. 3. I'm old and slow and keep getting lost. People have gotten frostbitten waiting for me. 4. I am training for a...

I love my Hillsound trail crampons. Kept them on my boots 'cause Mol and I hiked on ice every day. I cannot say enough good things about them. Will not be replacing my microspikes. They are not getting much use.

Really enjoyed your trip report. You go girl! :) Happy to hear that winter is on the way. :D

This was a great read. I sooo love VERMONT! A hearty congratulations on your outstanding feet! (FEAT) :cool:

Molly and Tucker send Lauky a hearty congratulations. He is one fine little hiker. And the same to Ed. Strong work fellas! :)

We can only hope. Had to buy new boots for my new orthotics. Insulated to -35. Very lightweight and comfy. We are ready. Garmont GTX Momentum SNOW boots. Nice price with the REI 20% member discount. Shipped in 2 days! :)

This is an interesting web site if we haven't already posted it. http://www.cougarnet.org/northeast.html

This is true in the context that some painful body parts can heal. As I get older it's been my experience that not all pain can or ever will be completely cured. Being in chronic pain does get old, and sometimes anything that will give you temporary relief is a blessing. I believe I...

Does anyone know if this film is eventually coming to MA, preferably Western MA???
