Hey...I resemble that remark! But I was probably in good company with The Geek, so I don't mind. Sorry you didn't make all the peaks. Sounded like a grueling day for you guys on Saturday. Can you believe we got to these peaks in a rented Kia Spectra? Cool.

no better dinner time reading material I read this TR after a long day working on the house. I'm eating pasta with sausage and zucchini and some herbs from the garden. Got a glass of wine, too. This TR was the icing on the cake. Or maybe the butter on the bread, since I actually have blueberry...

Darren (and Carmel too), Chip and I will have you and your family in our thoughts. The video tribute and obituary were beautiful and made me wish I'd known your father. What a handsome man, in youth and in age. Take care- Jen & Chip

Poppies This is just from my yard, but it's still cool. If you look at the bigger size in my webshots album you can see two pieces of the pod still hanging on like ears and there's a tiny ant on a petal on the right. I'm not any sort of photographer, hence my shadow is also visible. Oh well.

Not for you Vegetarians out there Some carnivorous flowers from Pisgah State Park in southern NH. You'll have to click on the thumbnails for the bigger pictures. Pitcher plant in bloom I think this is Sundew

Thanks for a great and off beat trip report. This is right in my back yard! We've paddled a section further north but did not have the skills you describe in the food department. Impressive and inspiring. That's the great thing about canoe camping/journeying. You can bring more stuff more easily...

Nearby conditions Well, since no one seems to have chimed in on this I'll offer info about nearby peaks. Was on Dorset(3770') the first Saturday in May and there was some snow/ice on the trail near the top, but not enough to cause too much trouble. Didn't use snow shoes or traction. So, if...

Whoa, that's sick!!!! I don't know if I'm intrigued or horrified! :eek: Thanks for sharing that video. Anyone ever play Mist? It reminds me of that.

I wonder if Tom Waits hikes? I can hear him wheezing through those smoke-choked lungs now! ;) I am also a big Tom Waits fan. This so has nothing to do with hiking.

Off Trail 3k hill in Southern Vermont. 3301' Hike started off at about 1460' on Moffitt Hollow Rd. A one lane rough dirt road off of Sandgate Rd. Follow the dirt path on the other side of the gate and across the creek. Special Equipment: No more snow anywhere except tiny pockets on the North...

Ooooo...Ahhh... w7xman...Those are purty! They look like flower fireworks the way you shot them. Nice.

I signed up for a free workshop at the beginning of May through the GMC about corridor monitoring. I am hoping it will allow me to develop my skills of navigating and give me a different purpose for visiting the woods. I am a little nervous about whether or not I'll be capable of doing a "good"...

As easy as drinking beer... While you're all visiting this lovely state of Vermont please pick up a case of Long Trail beer. This blurb was included in an e-bulletin from the Green Mountain Club. Donating to a good cause has never tasted so good!!!! ;) Long Trail Brewing's April Donation For...

Nah, those pictures totally suck. :rolleyes: Just when I was starting to get over my short love affair with Hawaii you had to go and remind me all about it! I'm ruined. Nice to see the end result of those pictures...they are beautiful. The color of the water looks fantastic in your shots. I...

Jamming on Saturday night? I'm asking this for Chip. (Mr. Toe Cozy) What is the likelihood of jamming happening on Saturday night too? I know he'd be quite interested in that.

GMC workshop Hey Tom, Thanks for the info. I have been thinking about doing this for a while. I'm a Vermont GMC Long Trail girl at heart so I signed up for their free workshop on May 4th. I'm looking forward to it.

Trailgate- v. hiking to close to the person in front of you. If you do this you will often get lip whipped and it's your own fault. Back off! Sample sentence: I always let him go ahead because he trailgates. I suppose Trailgate could also be used to describe any kind of undercover...

Ketch-up! Hi! Long time no hike! Hey, the cat likes him. She's got a pecan sized brain, so I can't really fault her for that. Me, I don't know what my excuse is. I'm working on it. Too much beer? Yep, that must be it. I can't believe you admitted the familial relationship in such a public...

You know what's worse than Darren having to hang out with me and Chip? Coming home to my house full of spongebob and then having to drive all the way to the Atlantic ocean and see Osprey diving into the water in order to get rid of you! I meant to post the few pictures I took at Wolf Neck State...
