    Owl's Head-West Bond-North Twin

    So it just tasted like chicken?

    Owl's Head-West Bond-North Twin

    I'm just happy to be alive after the black chicken fly-by. I was jogging along trying to catch back up with Neil and it flew across the trail grazing my chest. If I had been drinking out of a puddle I could of had my eyes pecked out! Luckily I think Neil blinded it with the flash from his...

    Best way to do a Pemi Loop.

    We need a little definition of "best". Does it mean "should" result in the fastest time?

    Owl's head?

    Haha, how many beers did you have back at the campground? There was a sign on the "old summit".

    Recommended Backpacking Trips in Adirondacks?

    All 4 of the leantos to the North of the Seward range have been replaced/repaired in the last year. The areas have been cleared and cleaned out underneath. The mice haven't invaded yet since they were cleaned out underneath and sealed through the tops. I stayed at the twin #4 leantos (as...

    One day pemi loop?

    Isn't progress nice. I think three years ago Wu would of replied, "I don't think the Pemi actually exist". :-) I heard they would of been faster but fell they in a big azz snow pit trying to get a drink of water?

    Owl's Head-Bondcliff. Suggestions?

    Didn't you use them all up in the Sawtooth range? Yeah but he is Canadian..you have to account for the time space continuum when crossing the border. I think your best bet is to bring someone along to dig a big-azz snow pit so you can get enough fresh water.

    Owl's Head-Bondcliff. Suggestions?

    If you hike at book time it should take you like 28 hours. Do you have a space blanket?

    One day pemi loop?

    Lol, and what book? They proabably haven't updated that crap since everyone wore knee high boots and 30 pound packs everywhere. A FIT hiker should be achieving at least 2 mph on a maintained non super technical trail. A person who just finished dragging a heavy pack and a sled up Denali I'm...

    What's there to do around Saratoga Springs & Lake Moreau?

    You forgot Buck; 6.6 round trip 2k of vert and some of the best open rocks views around. Eastern shore of Lake George. I'm told the trails in the park are actually quite good (and extensive) for the size of the park. Lots of places to hang out in Saratoga and Lake George. (you'll see or can...

    Another rescue

    Sounds like too aggressive an itinerary to me. I also see no mention of a GPS.

    Refreshing: No cause, no sponsor, no record

    That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little walk. So I walked to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd walk to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just walk across Greenbow County. And I figured, since I walked this far, maybe...

    One last weekend in the Whites

    Great..a Sasquatch and a Ferret left to roam the North woods alone..without food, water or toilet. If you would like to help these critters please donate to your local Potential Human Society.

    One last weekend in the Whites

    Keep in mind they speed hike on the other side of the trail over there; procede with caution at junctions.

    Lei Wang did it!

    Why do I think this is so much cooler than Jordans though..:)

    Devils Path

    You mean just under 13 Sabrina not 10! :) I usually tell people that if they hike at a good pace and pay attention to any stop time it takes 12-13 hours on average.

    What kind of scat is this?

    Well, I can't recall disagreeing with you in a "animal" thread before Sardog but I definitely do today. The only thing a little off is DSetthers sizing maybe, but if you look at the leaves in comparison it seems to fit better. Having seen 8 black bears and so much sign I lost count in the last...

    What kind of scat is this?

    That's bear. They are eating a lot of the new growth and buds this time of year, like yummy fiddleheads. I saw a bunch more last weekend and heard a few others.

    Webshots - where have all my pictures gone?

    I really recommend that switch too. Just start using it now and stop using Web Shots. The free tools and viewers they have are no comparison IMO. You can link things like old reports later on..but I've haven't had any problems with old links to photos anyway.
