Awesome! I love this goal so much more than the grid. Much more variety!

Hello All, We would like to invite the VFTT community (including official members & lurkers) for the 2nd annual spring weekend at our cabin in Madison, NH! Last year about 20 or 22 people showed up and a great time was had by all. Info on this next gathering below.... GATHERING OVERVIEW...

Great! Lincoln needs a few more great options. Hopefully this is a winner

Not too impressed with the views from there. The alps have 10x better views. Better to really cheat and take the Aiguille du Midi in Chamonix!

Some amazing ones out west... Angel's Landing, Utah Capitol Peak, Colorado

Here are some brand-new webpages to help you find some great backpacking trips in New England: Backpacking in Connecticut Backpacking in Maine Backpacking in Massachusetts Backpacking in New Hampshire Backpacking in Vermont Each of these pages is still a work-in-progress, so please do let me...

Great, thanks. Page has been updated with a bunch of new ones mentioned on here and on the 4000-Footers facebook group as well

Are they between Stowe Mountain and Bald Mountain, or east of Bald Mountain?

Thanks to everyone who helped out! Here is the final 'list' of trails we've all identified. Let me know if there are any edits required. Ladder Trails Now just need to find some time to hike all the ones I haven't done yet....really looking forward to Six Husbands Trail and the Willey Range...

I'm working on a list of trails that have a substantial amount of ladders/metal rungs/wooden blocks. Have I missed any? Maine - Beech Cliff Ladder Trail (Beech Cliffs, Acadia National Park) Maine - Beehive Trail (The Beehive, Acadia National Park) Maine - Ladder Trail (Dorr Mountain...

Great pics. Love those goats - saw a few dozen in Washington State two years ago. Antero looks like a must-do!

Great report, Tom. I was in that area last year but thunderstorms were threatening so we didn't even try. Did you do any other hiking in UT or AZ while out there?

Some tips: ~ the 5.0 mile round-trip hike up Angel's Landing in Zion is an absolute must. Top 10 day hike in the US in my opinion. Get up super-early to beat the crowds (6 or 7am). You'll be thankful you did. Avoid if you have a strong fear of heights (I'd call this class II+). ~ Best food in...

Thanks Guthook. How's the overall terrain - easy? rocky? soft?

Nevermind it's around 3200-3300 feet of total gain/loss. Sounds like a hard but do-able day hike

Anybody know the elevation gain for this 22-mile loop in Central MA? Thinking about doing this as a challenging day hike at some point. Thanks! - Roadtripper

Thoughts on this? https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2014/09/04/2014-21093/proposed-directive-for-commercial-filming-in-wilderness-special-uses-administration?utm_campaign=email+a+friend&utm_medium=email&utm_source=federalregister.gov I'm thinking this would REALLY hurt authors and...

Been a few years since this thread died out...just thought I'd bring it back for all the newer members since it's one of the funniest/best threads to ever happen on this site!

I spent a few hours yesterday brainstorming up "tips" on hiking the NH 4000-footers to help improve this page on my website: Guide to NH's 4000-Footers I then posted my draft list to a 4000-footer group on Facebook, which added several more great tips. Here is the full list of tips so far...

We will be there, either with our 1-month old or without =)
