Following is a link to the pictures. The undercast isn't as prominent as I remember but can still be seen in the pictures of Whiteface. http://adventurous-.smugmug.com/Hiking/New-York/Wright-Algonquin/10785256_ZuA5k#751829355_beSRi Jay - Yes, this was definitely a stark contrast to hiking it...

Until Wednesday night, HuiYeng and I were undecided on our Christmas plans. We checked the weather and chose Lake Placid since Christmas day looked like a great day for a hike. Our plan was to hike Wright, Algonquin and Iroquois weather permitting. We woke up Christmas morning to find that it...

You will LOVE Katahdin in the winter!!! It's an absolutely gorgeous mountain!!!

The crew: Jen (Nif) and Frank (Dr. Wu) The Plan: Drakes Brook Trail to Jennings Peak and Sandwich Dome return via Algonquin Trail How the plan came about: We decided to finalize our plans for hiking the Osceola’s over breakfast. It was a gorgeous Sunday morning and we wanted to hike...

It was great hiking with you again Dave!!! If we hadn't taken our time up Beaver Brook, we wouldn't have been treated to blue skies on Moose. Besides, Beaver Brook trail is so beautiful, you can't help but admire the cascades all the way up to the shelter. I can't wait to hike this trail...

What a difference a day will make. You captured a picture of Franconia Ridge blanketed with snow on Saturday. We hiked it on Sunday and there was no snow at all - just a few icy sections. We found it very strange because it looked like it was covered in snow Saturday afternoon on our drive...

Sure...let me know when you want to hit the NH peaks and what you'd be up for. Does this mean that you're working on the NE115 list? A presi traverse is on my list of things to do - would you be up for one? FYI - I haven't done one yet either - I've managed to miss all the presi traverses...

Happy Birthday Scott!!!

If you go on a clear day, it appeared that there were many good spots with views. It's an easy trail to move fast on since it's mainly dirt and not very rocky (with the exception of the climb up/down from Crawford). It's worth the side trip to go out to Stairs and Davis. Stairs has an open...

Thanks for the greenie!!! We had a great day on Isolation...long but fun.

Great idea :D I have no idea what you're referring to ;)

Happy Birthday Donna!!! Long time no see :(

What an awesome story for your 115 finish...congratulations!!! Just curious - did you ever get your stuff back or hear from the folks that had it?

Great account of the hike Darl!!! It was great participating in FOT48 again this year. This was the second time I had participated and both times were on Isolation. The hike up Dry River Trail was quite pleasant although our feet were fatigued from the hike in Acadia the previous week...

Thanks Tim!!! It was a great hike but my knees and feet (fatigued) are still paying the price. If I were to do it again, I would probably only do half of what we did because it's tough on the body.

Happy Birthday!!!

Congratulations on finishing your 48!!! I'm impressed that you finished them so quickly given the time that you've spent kayaking and surfing this summer in addition hiking.

You know your lobsters...they were indeed 3 pounders!!

Thanks MEB...we've spent a lot of time in Maine this summer and I've loved everywhere that we've been. Maine is just beautiful!!!

I forgot about that...4 out of 6 would have eaten the pork. Wonder how many others would say yes to eating pork off the grill after it had been left out all night. I think we're in the minority Darl...
