Nice report. I tried that last winter but had a bad day & did not make it. Maybe tomorrow will be the day.

Finally figured out Picasa remembered my password. Wow, I hate technology sometimes. The pictures are here: https://picasaweb.google.com/105644909598407730104/Zealand?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTzqeTcm7njEw

I did win all the money!!:D

It has been a few months since I've hiked on a nice day where I could actually see more that thirty feet. I decided to take last Thursday (10/18) off & head north. You would think that being my own boss I could do that anytime I want. That does not happen very often for one reason or...

I'm old fashioned, I like big leather hiking boots, plus I bought a pair of Limmers last year that I love. I get some friction on the outside of my big toe on both feet. Sometimes I get a blister & other times it is just uncomfortable. Doesn't help that I have very wide feet. I'm going to give...

I thought I saw somewhere a description of some type of cream that can be put on the feet to help eliminate blisters caused by friction. Anybody know what that is and if it works?

Nice hike & fantastic pictures! What kind of camera are you using?

The biggest difference between polypropylene and wool is polypropylene gets stinky after a few hours. Both work extremely well for me as far as quick drying and warmth when wet.

I'll handle Cannon. Any suggestions on a flag pole is welcome.

Thanks for the input everybody. I have a good idea what I'm after now.

You are right about Nutter butters! I don't know why but they taste better when eaten outdoors.

Any recommendations on a good, small (pack size) binoculars? Been meaning to get a pair for awhile but went looking at KTP and found way too many to choose from.

I've grown partial to the Probars. They're a little pricey but have great staying power and they taste good.

That is fantastic! Great, great job!!

I like the idea of hiking something else. My plan is to do it with my son for as long as I can talk him into it.

Thanks JacobH. Did I meet you at Galehead Hut last year on Flags On The 48 day? I met someone there from Barrington who was going up to South Twin.

This is my first post as a brand new member of VFTT. Very happy to be here. My son & I hiked up early Saturday morning as part of the Seek the Peak fundraiser for the MWOBS. We were on trail at 5:40AM thinking that we would beat the crowds. We were wrong. The amount of foot traffic was...

Thanks Fisher Cat!
