    Moosilauke – January 22, 2006

    Mike... Wish I knew it was you! But honestly, my own mother could have gone by and, all bundled up, I wouldn't have recognized you. Glad you guys had fun!

    MORIAH Sunday 1/15

    PB, thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, the weather was just too challenging for me. Went to the trailhead in the AM, but it just wasn't something with which I felt comfortable doing (gotta know your limitations). Anyway, thanks for the interest. We'll do it again some time!

    MORIAH Sunday 1/15

    Weather looks to be cold (mid 20's high), with a 20% chance of snow flurries. Lot better than what sat looks like (heavy rain). Looking forward to seeing whoever shows up at eight!

    Hard

    Toughest hike I did was in either late July or early August with BPSchroeder and LittleSister. I had very little hiking experience (not that I am a veteran now), with only doing six mountains before this hike. We did the Wildcat-Carter-Moriah traverse, starting at Glenn Ellis Falls and ending...

    Coffee before a hike

    With all the coffee talk, I think something to consider is HOW you have your coffee. I realize we don't guzzle cream or milk or usually put down ten sugars, but I'm wondering if that impacts increased peeing? Heavy creams or lots of sugar (which you can get with a couple cups of coffee and a...

    Coffee before a hike

    Is this a new poll question? If so, I have to say YES. I also drink lots of water to offset any possible dehydration factor... gotta do it to prevent the addiction headaches!

    Lonesome Lake Gear

    I stayed there on Christmas Eve when it was mild and used a -20 deg bag. I know you didn't ask about anything else, but I would recommend bringing a slead up and bringing lots of food. That worked well for me. Have fun! :)

    Isolation: 48th Hike: 2/4/06

    I haven't done it, but I know some people who have. Bobandgeri gave me some great tips... a group went out a week ago and talked a bit about it. I have a general idea that once you hit the Isolation Trail, you take a magnetic bearing of about 330 to Davis Path, just north of Mt. Isolation...
