Great photos, Ray!

It was a brilliant day up there. We were on the Osceolas enjoying that deep blue sky and the parade of white clouds passing by every now and then.

Photos Yes, we were on the Osceola's today and took some pictures of George in his white wig. Photo here. Others in the collection too.

Flags on Monroe from down below. Len, I have some shots of the flags atop Monroe from down below. We had come up the Caps Ridge Trail to Jefferson, then over to Washington and after coming out of the clouds we could see Monroe looming there under the gray ceiling, looking like a war-torn...

Nice Nice report, Mike. I agree with Audrey, your son is quite lucky. What a great weekend to share together.

Reminds me of a story... Hello Vegematic, Reminds me of the journey we took over the Twins and Galehead last summer. Atticus and I left the car at the trailhead for North Twin and made our way up and over the Twins, onto Galehead and then down to the Gale River Road. I soon stuck out my...

Amazing. Quite simply...amazing!

Bob & Geri, As much as you two help others in the hiking community with their goals, it's good to see you reaching your own. Congratulations! Tom & Atticus

This summer I found that same route to be my least favorite route in the Whites. The slide takes hold of my fear of heights and does a number on it. This winter, I found the same route to be my least favorite route once again and I had crampons on. It may be one of the shorter (mileage wise)...

Hi Drew, Would have stopped by but we didn't see your posting until today (Sunday), the day after. We will be checking the forecasts all week long and may see you up on Adams and Madison on Saturday. Atticus and I hope to do those and Jefferson, either on Saturday, Sunday or Monday. Hoping...

Hi Christine, Perhaps Atticus and I will see you along the way. Not sure of plans for Saturday yet but it is between Moriah, Isolation, Carters and Owl's Head. We'll make the decision later tonight or in the wee hours of the morning while up in the mountains. A few days ago dritter (Damon)...

Uphillclimber, I don't blame you in the least bit for turning back. That slide can be very nasty...even on Memorial Day. East Osceola was my fourh mountain of the year and I did it when I had only hiked Hale, Tecumseh and Cannon. It started to rain and the only thing that kept me from...

You might try Peg's in Woodstock (Rt. 3), although I think it opens at 5:30 (at least it did this summer) and not 5:00 but don't quote me. They do serve a full breakfast, just don't expect anything special. It's the most basic breakfast place I've ever been too, although the blueberry pancakes...

He's not quite sure how he feels about it. (Although I'd guess he's not a big fan of it.) It's fleece-lined and neoprene waterproof on the outside and with his winter hiking boots on the only parts of him revealed for all the world to see are his head, his butt and his privates. It looks like...

Thanks for the report Double Bow. I'm anxious to see what this trail looks like in the winter since this is the route we'll most likely go when we attempt the Kinsmans in December. Also hoping for snow! (Atticus is just dying to get into his new snowsuit [NOT!!!].)

Thanks for the report, the photos, and the inspiration. I can hardly wait to get up there and try winter hiking this year.

The list of NH 48 for me was a wonderful thing. It had a starting point and an ending point. It was a goal clearly defined and helpful to someone like me who was not a hiker and needed some guidelines to get to the point where I felt comfortable to later get "out there" and do whatever I...

We were on Webster (first) and Jackson (second) on Saturday, too, and you are right, it was a great day for views. One of my favorite views in the Whites is that mass of the Willey Range from Webster. It's breathtaking! I had the additional gift of being with someone who is just starting to...

Mutt Luks We've had success with "MuttLuks" in winter and used the same pair while hiking Adams and Madison this summer without a problem.

Hi Homer, Congratulations! I met you on a recent trip into Steve Smith's store. Atticus and I were there and we chatted for a bit with you. We had finished on the Bonds just a month ago and glad you had a chance to squeeze in the finish this year. Thanks for the trip report and for...
