Thanks for the green :)

Dog was found today. No details but briefly spoke with group who were going to get the dog. Watched them walk her down. Good news.

Went out again today and caught some real good weather up there. Progress was made on shoring up the bridge to the Sherby Ski trail with log cribbing and backfilling with gravel. I worked on a section of new turnpiking just as you re-enter the trail from the halfway house. Notched, peeled...

Nice report. This one is a favorite of mine and a few others on this board. Great views for not much effort.

This is on again for Saturday, 10/29 at 8am. Meet at the USFS barn. Contact emails below if you are planning on attending.

Wonderful. Especially love the shot of the blueberry bushes.

Thanks to Forestgnome for bringing this to light and PSmart for getting USFS attention on it.

Great time I joined the Friends of Tuckerman ravine and USFS on Sunday to continue work on bridge & trail repair in Tuckerman Ravine. I led a group in the morning to brush what I gather is a run-out/exit from Hillman's Highway - tho don't quote me. It's a ski trail at any rate. The bucket...

Populus grandidentata is the Big - Toothed Aspen. Not sure how common in New England but I do see them in my travels for trailwork. Usually the trees are older. They are easily identified by their leaves. http://plants.usda.gov/java/largeImage?imageID=pogr4_002_ahp.tif I believe the most...

I'm heading up on Sunday, 10/23. Hope to see others there.

Also easy to avoid the crowds by not going on a weekend. I've spent hundreds of hours working on Chocorua and spent days out there not meeting another soul (on the busiest trail).

Thanks for the green.

Congrats Becca. It's been a pleasure reading of your travels. Patrick, that is one amazingly big tree.

Nice to meet you all on the trail. Thanks for sharing the views from the top.

The trail is adopted but for whatever reason it is not being cared for. My estimate is that some sections haven't seen a clipper in 3 years. The axe work is mine but there is no crew :). Have a right mind to organize a trip on here to clear that out. Nice pics and thanks for the report.

Trails: 19 Mile Brook Trail, Carter Dome Trail Out to do some work on the Carter Dome Trail. Some significant water damage on the trail just before the 1st water crossing until the 2nd crossing of the same brook / tributary. It looks as if the water just flowed down the trail. Waterbars filled...

Thanks for the report on the SRT. Kind of sad seeing that I spent hours clearing the 1.2 miles from the Sawyer Rd to Hancock Notch jnt. It was all brushed in. Guess trailwork sometimes is like putting repair work into an old car - something big can happen to total it. Cheers. Great pic of the moose.

I met a scout group (with Eagle scouts) at the bottom of Piper who should have been on Champney. From reading Appalachia, this seems to be a common occurrence.

I can report that the Piper trail is in good condition. No real storm damage. Minor erosion has been patched. I have heard from Chinooktrail that Liberty is in OK condition as well. Chocorua didn't have the damage seen in other areas of the whites.
