Three cheers to Emma and Judy and Kevin! Congrats on getting halfway through. Kevin, something tells me I know where the fuel for your fire and brimstone came from. But all that aside, Emma is quite the dog and after meeting Emma, reading about Matthias, and knowing and living with another...

No disrespect meant here, Capt Caper, but this all seems a bit too cavalier for me. For whatever decisions have been made by these two men, their lives are still at stake. Perhaps when all is said in done in this situation I will have have a similar attitude but for now, I'd rather hope they...

The helicopter just flew by overhead again. It's flown overhead so many times this afternoon and evening and now into the night. As soon as it passed the cold wind hissed outside, rattling my windows. It is such a helpless feeling to know these two men are just a few miles away while Atticus...

This morning we got a good 5" to 6" of snow in Lincoln so who knows how much they got higher up, although Lonesome Lake Hut is reporting 9". By the way, TDawg, nice trip and report.

Pemi Cabins Spencer, I'm not sure what you want to spend but the Pemi Cabins are affordable, have fireplaces, and are pet friendly. Until Atticus and I moved up to Lincoln this is where we stayed every weekend we came north for two and a half years.

Congrats and Thank You Congrats on a great hike and thank you for nice report, Early Bird. Your report gives me inspiration and plants the seed of excitement in me for tomorrow's hike as we will follow your course but hit Hale on the way out. We almost saw you yesterday morning as we were...

The stream on the Mt. Cabot Trail that had been running smoothly two weeks ago was frozen solid yesterday with a couple of weak points. We crossed on the log bridge but tested the ice just the same and it seemed strong.

The snow has stopped in Lincoln and there is 5" of fresh, somewhat sticky snow on the ground right now. This is just what was needed to stick to the bullet proof ice we found in some places. Atticus and I hiked Franconia Ridge yesterday from Lafayette to Flume and there was very little snow...

Thanks for that.

Just received an early morning phone call from Mats. He's on his way to the Wildcats. His plan is to work his way up the Wildcats then Carter Dome, across the Carters to Moriah. He doesn't plan on getting much sleep tonight and will get an early start (possibly midnight) on Owl's Head and the...

I stand corrected. Thanks Marc.

From what I'm told Mats did do Cabot and I believe he did Waumbek too, but earlier in the day he was turned back on Isolation. That's all I know so far.

Today got you right back in the game, Mats. To be in the game right now with all of this snow is pretty remarkable. Onward, by all means!

Good day for Pressie Traverse for Mats As long as the snow in the Northern Pressies isn't too deep, Mats and Frodo have a great day for their Pressie Traverse. (At least as of right now.) If they make it to Washington okay, they'll most likely benefit from the trailbreaking being done by Ed...

Kevin, those are some fine photos. Love the very first one of Emma. It's a classic. You should have that one hanging on your wall. Merry Winter!

Update on first day Just back from visiting Mats at Parkers where he had Abster and Giggy for company, with a pizza and Mark Howes on their respective ways. I think Mats has moved half of his apartment north with him for the week. It appears he's going to start with Tecumseh tomorrow morning...

Mats, Watching the snow come down outside my window in Lincoln, I think we have another 7 or 8 inches of the light fluffy stuff on top of what was already there. Good thing you have some friends helping but I think it would be even better if you got a hold of Mark Henderson.

It's sad to see a good dog go; yet wonderful to see hear of a live lived to its fullest. Condolensces to all who loved and will miss this remarkable dog.

Or skate on, as we did earlier this week.

After a lot of rain, a good, slanting snow is now falling in Lincoln. Very nice. No accumulation at all...yet.
