    Giving way on the trail with snowshoes

    Very funny daytrip.I want to formally tell everyone to just get out of my way regardless of which way I am hiking,thank you.:D One more point here;No matter what you believe in politically/socially,etc you are allowed to make fun of the union leader.This thread is great entertainment......

    Moriah & Shelburne Moriah from WR Campground 11-2-13

    Fantastic read,thanks for posting.I did some extensive bushwacking in the wild river area years ago.Area is great for its remoteness within the Whites.Good job imho dealing with those "camping/hiking enthusiasts".Sometimes offering positive alternatives instead of berating people seems to do the...
