    Mt Jefferson from the Great Gulf: up Six Husbands, down Sphinx (8/18/2012)

    ...and just for fun, here's a blast from the past. June 2003, my one prior time on the Six Husbands Trail. Here's my buddy Norm, with whom I bagged many summits in pursuit of our NE 100, on one of Six Husbands' numerous ladders. He's looking a bit damp, and tired, and perhaps peeved at me...

    Mt Jefferson from the Great Gulf: up Six Husbands, down Sphinx (8/18/2012)

    I was long overdue for a return trip to the spectacular Six Husbands Trail, which I had only done once before, many moons ago... Carmen had never done it. Great day to be above treeline, with dramatic low clouds rolling over the summits and slowly down the ravines, but also with intermittent...

    Mt Washington Sat. 7/7/12, up Huntington Ravine/down Great Gulf

    Thank you to all for the kind comments! There is a large boulder on the uphill end of Spaulding Lake - it's a short bushwhack across the lake's inlet stream to reach it. Scramble up the boulder, as we did for the first time on our August 2006 backpack into the Great Gulf and over Mt...

    Caribou Valley Road - repaired!

    Correct - we parked on the left (there was room for 5 vehicles at least) then road walked ~10 minutes to the AT crossing. Which by the way is not signed... keep your eyes out for rocks w/white blazes on both sides of the road. If you get to Mt Redington you've gone too far. =)

    Caribou Valley Road - repaired!

    This was the end of the line for us on Sunday 7/1! Pretty sure we passed the three mile marker before we came to this spot. We were in a Subaru Forester, but we noted 2wd vehicles where we parked, including a Prius and a Civic.
