    Highpoint: Colorado. Mt. Elbert, 14,440 feet. September 3, 2012

    Thanks! I'll post the Wheeler report tomorrow and the Boundary report over the weekend. :) Thank you, John! I've heard that Elbert is one of the easiest 14ers, and I wholeheartedly believe it. There was nothing difficult about this ascent except for the altitude. I hurried us off the...

    Highpoint: Colorado. Mt. Elbert, 14,440 feet. September 3, 2012

    I know there a few highpointers on this board, so I thought I'd post our TRs from our recent highpointing trip. The girls and I just returned from a three week+ highpointing expedition out west. We lucked out with the weather and we spent a week acclimating before we hiked anything, so we were...

    New book coming next Spring on 52 With a View

    I was so happy when Dan told me about his book deal. This book should be extremely successful -- Dan's a fantastic writer, his family is lovely, and NH hikers could use a 52WAV guidebook. I can't wait to read it. Those of you who haven't checked out his blog -- do so! Great stuff.

    Canon Mtn

    I did the Hi-Cannon Trail a couple of years ago -- at that time, the ladder looked and felt like it was about to fall apart. :eek: Congrats to Matthew! I like ascending and descending Cannon from Lonesome Lake -- much nicer than hiking the mountain via Kinsman Ridge Trail from the tram...

    Bondcliff!! I made it!! 7/14/12

    Congratulations! Extra congratulations for surviving the heat! I spent a fair bit of time in my 20s and 30s working outside in extreme heat -- munching on salty crackers helped tremendously (in addition to chugging the fluids). The crackers calmed my stomach and helped replenished the salt...

    Terror Bagging: Caps, Hubbies and Sphinx

    Hi Bob, I'm loving these trip reports as it will be at least two years before we finish our own list. We don't have the time to do all the hikes we'd like to do this summer, and I want the girls to be taller before they attempt Huntington Ravine Trail (greater height means greater ease of...
