    Carter Dome via NMB 2/17

    We had originally planned a hike to Adams & Jefferson but the weather did not cooperate. This one turned out to be a good alternative as we stayed mostly sheltered from the wind on a cold day. Used Nineteen Mile Brook Trail to Carter Dome Trail and then across the ridge to loop back on NMB...

    Dog Gear

    Thanks Audrey. I've only been a trail adopter for a year. I love it! Ed, I saw you last week on Tecumseh and thought about asking you about it then. Thanks for the info. I agree with the booties. For the most part he would not need them. Today I think he could have. He was showing signs of...

    Dog Gear

    Can anyone make a recommendation on a coat and booties for a dog? I'd like to get Alaska suited up for these colder days.

    East Pond

    Wanted to do something different today. Looking through Snowshoe Hikes in the White Mountains by Steven Smith I stumbled upon this one. I like having Alaska (my dog)with me but I dont want to torture him with a very cold and windy summit. Trail is in great shape for the first couple miles. We...

    Winter Boots for Wide Feet?

    I have very wide feet & wear Columbia Bugaboots that have been very comfortable. I have a pair of Limmers that I love but they are not warm enough for winter use.

    Cell phone coverage?

    I'm sad to report my Sprint IPhone works almost everywhere. I keep it shut off but I can't help but check.

    Mt Kinsman via Mt Kinsman trail 12/14

    The trailhead has been relocated about .2 miles south. There is a small parking lot now just before the tennis camp. The trail is ice free for the first 2/3rds. After that it is solid ice. Wore Hillsounds with no issues. Hopefully the snow this week will cover up the ice. Not a good place for a...

    Hillsound Trail Crampon Pro vs. G10's

    Thanks Kevin. I hike alone most of the time so my tolerance for risk is very small. Looks like the G10's will be in my pack shortly.

    What to use to carry my Hillsounds Pro and BD Contact Crampons

    I use a shoe bag that I used to use for my golf shoes. Golf & Ski has them fairly cheap.

    Hillsound Trail Crampon Pro vs. G10's

    I've been carrying the Hillsound Trail Pro's for a couple years. Used them a few times with no issues. Mostly get by with the Hillsound Trail Crampons (similar to Microspikes). Are the G10's a better choice than the Hillsound Pro's? I had a pair of G10's in my hands the other day but talked...

    Map of the Belknap Range

    I just picked up all the maps they had at the Gilford Library. There are a couple for the Ossipee range at the library as well. I spent $34. I probably could have passed on a couple but I don't get up that way during normal business hours very often so I took them all. I brought the ones I...

    IDEA: Hike/Gathering in each northeast state

    Summer, winter, spring and fall. I hike throughout. So far just in NH but I'm itching to get to Katahdin sometime soon. The cycling looks interesting. On my own I do 25-30 miles as time allows after work. It would be a good change to push that up with a group. I haven't organized a hike with a...
