Thanks! Great seeing you at the Gathering.

So for the sake of amusement and having some pun...I was returning from a big hike and was Russian to Finnish because I was so Hungary that Iran into trouble because I forget to Czech my Polacks to make sure they were still tight. All of a Sudan, they collapsed and I fell and Iraq them all...

Congrats Bill on an amazing and spectacular accomplishment!!! :)

Good point. As long as your getting decent time out of your higher price ones, why use more material and potential waste.

-smoothness of trails, rocks and roots covered -greater visibility, no leaves, better light coverage, higher vantage point -televator bars! -same hike, different landscape -no bugs -watching the woods fill up with snow -silent serenity -added edge of greater potential risk and/or danger...

When you go hiking with Puck, you ever feel the urge to yell: What the Puck!!? :p

I bought a pair of Scarpa Kailash last spring and did 2/3 of the ADK high peaks in them and highly enjoyed them. :)

Trails: Phelps, Orebed, State Range, Southside Hikers: Scotzman + 8 Equipment: Snowshoes, poles, wind gear On our way north from the Albany area, we made our usual pit-stop at the High Peaks rest-stop for a quick bathroom break and bumped into BillB and ADKJack and I'm sure a few more on...

Aye, it was. I had a great time getting to meet people and put faces to forum names. :)

Great TR and pics! It was good meeting you at the Ark and congrats on your busy weekend. :cool:

Even though his pace will pick up when he's not breaking trail in snowshoes, it figures to be much longer than 1 year. However long it takes, I am enviable that he's able to take a year/years off to just hike. A nice position to be in. :cool:

Outstanding!!! That is an absolutely amazing feat! Congrats on your effort and result! :D

From Ausable Club: Lake road well packed and traversable by whatever means you wish. West River trail, 6-8" of powder over packed base, several blowdowns. Wedge Brook trail 8-12" powder over packed base. Used snowshoes and poles the whole trip, no need for anything else. No exposed ice, rocks...

Date: 2/8/11 Trails: Lake Road, West River, Wedge Brook, Cut-off to summit Hikers: Scotzman, Penny Required Gear: Snowshoes and poles I was looking to get a warm-up hike in before my hike of Saddleback this coming weekend for the Winter Gathering. It had been several weeks since I was last...

Great, thanks. :) Survival counts, I mean that's kinda an adventure right? lol I have read and greatly enjoyed A Walk in the Woods; probably my favorite so far, but that's not out of a very big sampling. :rolleyes:

I finally took the time to go watch 127 Hours. I had been wanting to see it since I first saw it's previews at the end of last year. I haven't read the book and not sure how closely it followed the actual happenings, but based on the movie I thought it did a great job of portraying the...

Wow that is pretty amazing! Hard to imagine surviving a 1000' fall.

15 day hike, 8 overnight. I've done numerous hikes with meetup groups and it's very easy for the organizer to set the limit on the hike for whatever number they want. Of course it's not so easy to know how many will actually show up. For the most part however it's usually a few short of the...

Have check-in stations on each of the trails just below the summit and have people queue up to summit; you can't move on till someone else comes down. :p Hope no one has a long lunch on top! :eek:

I'm not the fondest cat person, maybe because I was raised loving dogs or because I've always loved seeing and hearing birds and had to keep chasing away cats from our feeders, so having a rebound in the fisher population sounds like it's music to the ears of our feathered friends.
