I really like the first and the third pictures. Nice job.

Good Luck guys! I'd love to break some trail for you but I'm taking January off to let the feeling come back to my frostbitten toes.

I use Flickr. I have a pro account which costs somethink like $25 a year. The free account how many pictures I could post. I have been pretty happy with it and there are no ads.

Hmmmmm:cool:

I reserve my right/privilege to make any comment as I wish, or even to choose not to make a comment.:p

I figured that this part of the LT would be a snowshoe backpack, but I thought I might as well ask this group just to be sure. I finally found my copy of the Long Trail Guide and Snoshoovt confirms the description in the guide. It's good to check the reference book, but I also like to get more...

I plan to take a couple of days between Christmas and New Year's to hike the Long Trail from Lincoln Gap to Appalachian Gap. The plan is to camp/bivy somewhere between Mount Abraham and Mount Ellen. I read a trip report by blacknblue that the Lincoln Gap road was closed about 1 1/4 miles...

Nice job Court and Gig. I didn't even take a look at the ravines when I went up on Friday. I'll give the conditions another week and they should be in good shape by then! Woody

Hopefully someone heads up into the ravines some time in the middle of the week and then posts a couple of shots of some of the more promising ice and snow lines. I'm really not counting much on having any good water ice routes, but maybe a little bit of ice on a snow climb. I'll at least take...

I usually prefer to hike with a small group, but if no one is available and I have the time on my schedule to get out for a day or two then I will just head out solo. I do pay close attention to the weather and make sure I leave my plans with my wife. I'll probably tell my brother as well...

DB - Had a great hike Halloween weekend. We were thinking about you!

Mats, Great trip this past weekend! Shake and Bake!

There was a little bit of ice on Monadnock today. Some of the puddles near the summit were frozen.:D

Past the middle of October and above treeline - I'll bring the microspikes. They're pretty light for the piece of mind.

You climbed this mountain 4 times in a day and you didn't even hike the best trail!:rolleyes: My favorite route up Monadnock involves taking the Spellman Trail and then coming down the White Cross for a nice loop. If I can't take the time to get to the White's then a hike on Monadnock is a good...

I dealt with this life insurance issue about a year ago after my previous term policy expired. After having the term policy for 20 years my premium sky-rocketed. It was time to get a new policy. When got my first policy 20 years ago I did not hike actively and I did not do technical climbing...

Darlene, Looks like a lot of fun even if you didn't get to the top!

Mohamed, Keep getting out there and keep up the fight. Your trip reports and website were inspirations for me when I was first starting to hike almost 10 years ago. I continue to refer to your website as I am sure many other hikers do as well. I hope to run into you on the trails!

Sounds like day 7 made carrying a little extra weight well worth it! I've got to get out to the ADKS! Nice report.

I could have gone to Barnes and Nobel and bought a climbing book and not have read a better story! Great report. Sounds like a wonderful time. I know that Giggy is big on practicing cravasse rescue and this is why. Sounds like a great combination of a family vacation and a climbing trip...
