    Local hiker completes Presi traverse in 12 straight months

    Presi Traverse is a routine day for Pam. She loves to be above treeline. Always a pleasure to hike with. As well as being a strong team member she is the first to offers words of comfort to victims and their families. PVSART girls rock!

    donna does Coe

    Summit sign was buried under snow. VFTT's resembled the inside of a ping pong ball. Even the Spirit counts this :D

    donna does Coe

    Don't know the Spirit personally, but it was definitely messing with you. There were times while working through the drainage that I thought we may need to turn back. I looked into the spruce trap after Frodo extracted himself. The hole beneath his bottom footprint went down another four feet...

    Owl's Head 1/30/2010

On my trip back across the ridge I came upon a short drop. Slid down nicely in my snowshoes. At the bottom the path turned right and passed between a...

    Do You Ever Hike Drunk?

    Just noticed that ferrisjrf "Dies of alcohol poisning..." yet he "Never brings alcohol" He must drink what everyone else carries. No wonder he can go so fast.

    New Sleds

    Got to work on perfecting my swiss bob technique coming off S Hancock this weekend. If you sit right up on the sled it goes very fast. You can check your speed a couple of ways: -Pull the sled out from under you. -Put the sled under your pack but don't sit on it. -Put the sled under just one...

    The Winter 48 in About a Week

    The record is kinda cool. But records are made to be broken. What's really impressive is the "Passaconaway Salute" Be a long tome before anyone can top that.

    Good to see you Marty. How did your date go? :cool: Beautiful day on the ridge. I headed across to Liberty. Sheltered from the wind the whole way, even on the summit.

    Comparison of indoor vs outdoor temperatures of huts in the winter

    We stayed in a cabin in Savoy without winter bags. You'll be plenty warm if you bring enough wood.
