I presume Garmin still has a flat fee for fixing things? you might want to just open the baby up and take a look see if you can isolate the broken antenna.... Jay

...And there are VT firetowers and GMC"s nice little booklet "360deg views" too... There should be a ski resort list as every ski resort seems to have a hikeable trail to it, either by way of the LT/AT or otherwise. Jay

FYI, if for some reasons your plans change and you are interested in snowshoeing a beautiful small peak. Sentinel Mtn has lovely west side views of the Katahdin Massif. I did that as a day trip from Abol Bridge one winter, breaking trail for a lot of the trip, which was beautiful and felt I had...

6" in the Berkshires,,, 2-4" PREDICTED on friday 1/30/15 Jay

http://forums.adkhighpeaks.com/showthread.php?t=27063 A bunch of catskill peaks offer a semi clear view, but not necessarily from the top. Case in point, Blackhead which has an awesome view on the way up from the Black dome side... if you're asking about the Batavia Kill trailhead... Black...

It's possible, I think windows 7 had an option in the preferences to run it in Windows XP Compatibility mode.. the VM is a worst case scenario cause it's like sort of booting up your machine (jn software) into a special VM simulating Windows 7.. then you'd have to install everything you need...

Worst case scenario is you can always try a Windows 7 Virtual Machine running in Windows 8.X I'd google it though and see if you find instances of Topo in native Win8.1 or so... Jay

From: Wiliams Pond Reservoir Route: A.T. over the shoulder of Prospect, Mt Williams and Mt Fitch to summit and back. Date: 1/10/2015 Conditions: 5" of nice powder over hard snow/ice once you get up on the ridge, less snow on the slopes. Made for good microspike conditions on the way up...

saw it on Christmas eve. I haven't read the book and the reason I saw it was honestly, because it was supposedly about the PCT. I thought the movie was good if you went into the movie knowing that the movie was more introspective than the actual journey on the PCT... It was certainly...

Pittsfield, MA, in the berkshires only got about 4" total. I think a lot of the early snowfall just melted because we got pretty much all rain tuesday. Jay

Don't forget the Looney Moose Cafe.., and get an ice cream sundae (ask for a Cherry on top).. Jay

That's a very nice loop Driver8, you can also stay at the AT/LT shelter at Stratton pond or camp at stratton pond (fee in the summer) if it's not flooded... :-) Jay

I read somewhere that there is a lot of moose along the stretch of Arlington-Stratton Road, around the Somerset Reseroir/stratton pond area.. I've never seen one there but Ive only been there a few times... In fact, I don't recall ever seeing a moose in VT, only, NH, ME, MT, AK Jay

bring your skis :) Jay

Unless that's changed, I was told many years ago that bikes are not allowed to Roaring Brook. They ARE allowed on the tote road though.... You should check with the Ranger station there.... Jay

Dion and Northern Lites both come to mind when snowshoe races come to mind. Dion is also in VT if that makes a difference for you. I'm personally a user of the Northern Lite Elites but I don't race, I use them as regular backcountry snowshoes... Jay

Noticed that LL Bean sells a filter replacement for the Katadyn Hiker Pro water filter which is like $6ish dollars cheaper than the actual Katadyn brand replacement. Has anybody tried the LL Bean one before? It looks like the Katadyn one has a sponge thing and some siicon lube, neither which I...

Should be a nice weekend, weather wise. The bike is always a good idea, I've haven't had any issues with locking a bike in the woods with a simply cable lock... Downhill at the end is nice :) Jay

I, among others for sure used to go visit both when going to Campmor, doing the usual comparison shopping. I left NJ before the REI there opened but was still in NJ when the one on Rt 10 opened up. I even went to the grand opening! Jay

Nice, thanks for sharing.. I can paddle for ice cream too :) Jay
