Thinking again about this early to mid July. will keep you posted

Thanks Alan, Hopefully I can work things out and get up there at that time and bring up a boat. I just went paddling last weekend in Lake Champlain. We started in Otter Creek VT and crossed the lake and camped out on the NY side. Lot's of fun, I'll wait for others to make some suggestions but...

What # gathering is this? 10? Seems like I remember walking into a field of tents and beverages early one morning years ago.

Hi Capt, and hello John, First, good to hear your news John, I sent you a pm. Capt, all is going well. I went on app 7 winter hikes here in the Catskills and finished up my winter 35's. Went on a few NH hikes, one was an out and back after not finding the trail, (that's a post about NH...

Nice! I can't wait till the middle/end of August to go on my next paddle adventure. One day I hope to get up to Maine. That's one huge tent you have there also.

ditto! Let me know when your going and we can meet up, i also have a Tempest?what color is yours, hehehehe

Looks like it's going to be a shelter for us this weekend. Hate to carry the extra weight but in Laurie's words, "it will build character". Now have to search and make it a www.viewsandbrews.com trip!

Thanks sardog1, just did a vftt search and found a thread from 2009 with info, will check it out tomorrow.

Any info on car camping this time of year in NH? It seems that there are very few lean to's or platforms in the whites. I remember the Barnes Field VFTT winter gathering app 8 years ago. Are there any "free" sites like there are in the Catskills near the high peaks. I'm not to sure where...

yea, bad news, but Joe has a ton of followers and people helping him. It's a set back but with a positive attitude and friends life will continue. Hope he had insurance.

Funny you just posted this. I just sent back my Bugaboots to Columbia this afternoon. Right boot was digging into my ankle. Cost me $20 to send them UPS to Oregon :eek: I hope to hear back from them in app 10 days. I don't know about their repair dept but I'd try what the others suggested...

Just got power after 9 days... have to keep you cool and not get excited or fustrated. Many people have it worse, that's what my wife and I kept thinking. But my wife did get to use my LL Bean down 35f sleeping bag and it kept her warm while the temps dipped into the 30's. Hmmm maybe she will...

ahh good observation.....we couldn't leave fri night so we left the city app 5am and it rainned for a while going up there. When we finally got on the Santa clara app 2pm the clouds had moved away and we had nice weather. The group who camped out fri night had a good drenching and an early...

A few weeks ago on Columbus weekend I attended a paddle weekend north of Paul Smith's college. To keep this short it was an excellent trip and the chapter that ran this program was excellent! It was their 18th year doing this and I was so glad to be a part of it. We car camped at Meachem...

Big shout out to Sierra Designs for replacing my Omega 2 convertible tent because the seam seals were pealing apart on the fly. They didn't have any replacement fly's (flies?) so instead the are sending me a NEW Mountain Meteor 2 tent! whoo hoo! Looks like I'm back into winter camping ...
