Jaime's Technique for Motivating Fellow Hikers Should I even go there? A very influential way to get fellow hikers moving after a snack or water break.......

Thanks MEB and Maddy! Puck - the way we get up and down the mountain is open to suggestions. I just want to have fun!

It has been a little more than 1.5 years since Artex and Pennsy told me that I had just gotten my first peak on 'the list' - North Kinsman. I wasn't really interested in doing a list of peaks, but more just getting out to experience the Whites. I found that in doing the list I have hiked many...

Great! I am very interested in seeing pics if you don't mind posting them when they are ready. Thanks for the information. I am excited just reading about it! :D

Ahh Madeira! Thanks for the trip report. I have been interested in going to Madeira for a couple years now, but still have not because of the cost to get there. Lisbon isn't too bad, but then getting to Madeira adds quite a bit of cost. I have looked at the area around Pico Ruivo on-line and...

Great pictures B&G! Looks like you had a great group! We had fun on Carrigain. Take care. Hanna

Hi 7S- Wow - how exciting and scary at the same time! Glad it all worked out. I have heard the same things as DougPaul. Stay safe! :) Hanna

Kilkenney Ridge Saturday Thanks Michael! Okay, plans are coming together. Friday, I will likely do either Zealand or South Kinsman. Saturday the plan is for Kilkenney Ridge, which I am assuming would also include Starr King. This is approximately 24 miles, so an early start is necessary...

I will be continuing to work on my 48 list on Friday and Saturday of this week. The weather is supposed to be great! I still need: Cabot Waumbek Carrigain South Kinsman Zealand I would be up for the whole Kilkenney Ridge if anyone is game. It would be fun to have company, so please let me...

I did a NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership School) 3 week trip out there a couple of years ago in the Olympic Nat'l Park - we basically traversed the park. We traversed the Humes, Hoe (did I spell that right?) and the Blue glacier. We were supposed to climb Olympus, but were caught in a storm...

Congrats Karen and Marcia!! Hope to hike with you again! Hanna

HI P- Glad you got this done. Congrats! Glad Chips was feeling better this time. Hanna

Pictures! Hi Zac, Your pictures are amazing!! What a perfect day. Glad you went back to face your demon. Hanna

Hi John, I may have a couple dogs with me too, so you and Sugar are Welcome! Hopefully we will see you and S at Pinkham 8am Sunday. :) Hanna

Okay, 8am at Pinkham. It is good to start earlier because it looks like it will be hot on Sunday....I may just be sitting in 19 mile brook by the end of the day :) See you then Damon. Jen, we'll be talking..

Hi Jen, That would be great! Of course we could carpool. The hike shouldn't be more than 10 miles, but it is fairly steep. Damon was talking about going up one of the ski trails, but I haven't heard back from him yet. We are supposed to be meeting at Pinkham at 8:30am on Sunday. Let's...

DRitter and I are talking about doing the Cats on Sunday. Route still TBD. Meeting at 8am at Pinkham. Good company is more than welcome. Please let us know. Thanks. Hanna

Still plugging away at the 48 list, so 7Summits and I are heading up Galehead and Garfield Saturday. If anyone would like to join us wild and crazy girls, please let me know! Specifics: We will be meeting at the Garfield Trail parking lot off of Gale River Loop Road at 8am, dropping a car and...

That is in the neighborhood for me TC! Maybe we can ride down together.

I'm pretty sure it was a bag of bacon - she loves it! I took Diamox for my Kili climb and didn't have any problem with it. The guide who smoked when we stopped called the cigarette his 'Diamox'. :eek: An acclimatization day, as Giggy mentioned, is key. I don't think 'making good time' on...
