Hiking in the rain is one of my favorite things. Three most impotent things to me are flexible sole, soft rubber sole and placing my center of gravity plumb to the point of contact where the rubber meets the trail. grog

hey Andrew Personally I'm more than happy to take on the risk and live in prime Moose habitat. That's easy for you to say, you drive a four wheel drive F-250 with a big plow frame in front. If you ever hit a moose you'd be having moose burger all winter.:cool: Posting at 10 o'clock on a...

You can make reservations within 10 days with a credit card over the phone. So the day before you leave call them and see what you can reserve. Columbus day weekend is usually crowded, but other then that it is usually easy to get a site. I just checked and columbus day is 13th so the 14 and...

I like hiking on cold, foggy, windy, rainy days. Nobody bothers me then. grog

I thought it said quilt too. Guilt was something I was taught as a youngster so when I grew up (not going to happen ) I would give lots of money to these folks to absolve my guilt. I didn't think I like lists, but thinking about it I do have lists - hiking the steepest trails in the northeast...

My friends and I like to go to Wassataquiock lake and rent a canoe and go to north shore of the lake . From there we climb to the cliffs of South Pogy and up. Great views from the top of the cliffs, scree and spruce bushwacking. grog

I agree with Gris. If you really want to chill, spend a couple nights in Russell Pond. grog
