Congratulations, Kevin!!! Great trip report. John & June

A Presi day with an undercast all....day....long!!!! I did a loop yesterday 3-15-12 of Jefferson, Washington and Monroe. What a day! Undercast all day long. Oft times undercast will be there in the morning and then slowly dissipate as the day goes on. Not yesterday. It stuck around all...

Great story, Kev. The weekend looks good and I think you definitely have it in you to finish! Go get 'em!! John

June and me headed up the Valley Way trail to Madison hut where we would then head up Mt. Madison first, drop back to the hut and continue on to Mt. Adams. Forecast was for a decent Presi day. We certainly got that Presi day but we also got to see the yin and the yang of weather in the Whites...

Hi Nancy, Great seeing you guys today on Mad Adam. I have some pictures for you. Send me your email address and I'll send them to you. John J&J

Hi Joe, I got some pictures for you. Send me your email address. Hope you had a great day! John J&J

Incredible job, Joe. Really hard to imagine. Maybe next year if you push yourself a little harder, you could include the VT and ME mountains, but there's only 19 of them.:eek: Short work for a guy like you! :D:D

Congratulations, Paradox!!

It was you, Pam!!

Kev- I had no idea there was something called a 22* halo. Never heard of it until now. I stand corrected although Sun dog does sound better than 22* degree halo. :D

We are lucky, aren't we! :D

Our troop of four (Ed, Paul, Pam and John) headed out to do a Southern Presi traverse (Monroe, Eisenhower, Pierce) under spectacular weather conditions. When the weather is right, a winter Presi traverse can't be rivaled. This was one of those days. Another fantastic day in the mountains...

Not really a trip report since we didn't go anywhere. We enjoyed this sighting from the warmth and comfort of our living room. I'm working on the computer posting some pictures from the last couple of hikes and June says, "Coyote in the backyard." I grab my camera and was able to take 30 or...

That's because you're not seeing his backside where he had a HU-GHA piece covering up a rip! :D

Number of 4k's summited: 4,000. Yes, that's right, 4,000 4k's. Yesterday, 2-9-12, Hiker Ed summited Mt. Osceola in the White Mountains of New Hampshire completing a grand total of 4,000 4k summits in New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont and New York. Along with friends John (me, 1/2 of J&J) and Bob...

It was great seeing all of you on West Bond. Lots of people doing the traverse yesterday. Here are a couple of pictures that I took from the summit of Guyot while your group was standing on the summit of Bond. A neat sight. John The group on Mt. Bond A zoomed in and cropped image of the...

That looks like it was the old Stillwater By-Pass trail. Abandoned sometime between 1940 and 1947 it appears. Used to follow a branch of an old logging railway although I don't see any RR tracks on the old maps. Maybe it was just a logging road rather than railway. The old railway/logging...

I believe the dam remains are the remnants of the old Shoal Pond Brook water gaging station from about 1911. There are three of these old gaging stations around the Stillwater area. I believe there were seven of these gaging stations built around that time in the Pemi area. They were part of...

About 7" of new snow high on Hicks Hill in Ashland, NH so far, however the snow has really tapered off.

My name is John. :D I was the guy between the couple (Nancy and her husband Charlie,the man with the long white beard) and the two women I didn't know. I'm glad we all had a small part in brightening up your day!
