I'm glad the porcupine that frequents that shelter didnt come and vist you!!

congrats on your first winter peak!! IMHO I find it easier (but slower) to travel up them in the winter I like how all the rocks are covered, and going down is much softer most of the time.

thanks for the greenie Petch, Cant wait for the bonds!

As I was working today I stepped outside looked at the sky and said to myself this is a presi day. I am glad you got to enjoy it Tim, damn the man keep on hiking, don't be a slave to the cube!:D And a Star sighting as well, I'm happy the little lady is doing well up there.

Monroe 1/24 myself and my friend Nathan I was hoping all day Monday when I was working that the rain and fog predicted that night for the whites would not amount to much snow loss. Well I was wrong, when I drove threw Franconia notch and saw the Front side of Cannon I knew that the fog took...

I hope they get the loser pays part in the bill. I am so sick of people looking to blame someone when its there own darn falt they got hurt.

Nice Report Earl, I hope you told the moose to get some snow shoes and that postholing is frowned apon:D

You are right Earl, I forgot what day it was. Monday must have been rough with all that moisture.

awesome report Earl. Yesterday weather wasnt so great on Monroe either, though you were smart enough to stay sheltered it was nasty above treeline.

headband mount = shakey footage I have a contour 1080p and I have used it to film hikes. You can view them herehttp://www.youtube.com/user/jimmcmurchy?feature=mhee. I would recomend a monopod for making hiking movies. these smaller cameras are hard to keep still unless firmly mounted to...

+1 for OR. I have the cornice mitts, a nice tuff goretex shell and primaloft inserts that look like oven mitts, but keep your hands nice and toasty. If its not very cold a I take the liners out and wear the shells with or glove liners

Thanks for the greenie Becca the tours will be better after these two storms

A less than ideal ski tour it still better than no ski tour!

thanks for the green trish!

I am glad you had these thoughts in your mind when you were climbing. I took my class through IMCS and would recomend them highly. Until then A good rule of thumb would be stay on the Outies and not the Inies. Meaning gullies and valleys( were lots of summer trails travel) are the worst places...

Totally right Kevin, its also worth noting that anyone going out in level 4 or 5 is taking huge risks. Level 2 is not super dangerous like 4 or 5 but you could still be hurt or killed. We all have different levels of risk and I wouldnt tell anyone not to go were they want to go. I just spent a...

Glad you made it up the bowl. I was wondering if you have any Avy knowlege? I was up there a couple hours after you digging pits and doing compression test climbers left of were the snow rangers were in your photos. That mornings avy report Listed the route you took as a moderate avy risk...

Dick is a Great Man, He is one of my customers in the real world and he loves his biking as much as we love our hiking. I am glad that things are shaping up for the merrimack greenway trail.
