I spoke with my son last night who is a backcountry caretaker at an AMC site on the AT. They have been told that the bolus of through hikers is due by this weekend.

No such luck the AMC has set the date for Dec 15th. What beter way to end the world by counting birds. I will be free for this hike of yours. Everyone knows christmas shopping is uselss this year. (BTW has anyone ever noticed thatthe Mayan calendar looks like an Oreo cookie? Not that I spend...

This past Sunday I was coming down Lafayette and ran into Forest Service who had spent the night at Liberty Springs. They are fully aware of these sites and they have a presence up there. Not that consciousness should be the fear of the police or anything..

yes! this is really great.

Nice running into you on Little Haystack. I never thought I would see baked goods of that quality in the White Mountains. Good luck to your friends on thier thru hike.

"D) While my heritage and coloring might indicate a kilt, I'm not there...yet." I think that is the way for you to go. your hiking times will plummet as hikers stop you to get advice on a good single malt. Seriously...try lederhosen.

Nice three mile ascent with aggressive elevation gains. The trail at the summit is rerouted to a road that leads to the parking lot for the toll road. There is a construction site for the lodge (or whatever it will be) that makes for an unsightly view. However, there are some lookout point that...

I like the Etan Pond trail to Shoal Pond. There are some limited views of Willey and Whitewall. There is great habitat.

dam! This is really sad.

From the Buklin Trail head I went up the logging trail/Wildcat ski trail. I followed the logging trail to the col and bushwacked through some fir waves until I was below the peak and found the herd path. This was easy to follow the peak. it was very buggy and birdy. The descent was fast but I...

I started my hike to N Weeks by midafternoon this past weekend. I parked at the fish hatchery and took York Pond Trail to Kilkenny ridge. I went south to the summit of North Weeks. I came across a couple who were decensding. We started to chat. They emphaticaly told me I was headed north up...

Fun times!

Like the Bob-white the peeps in the Northeast have escaped from a breeder...in this case an easter basket. You can take care of them by creating a nice nest of easter hay and feeding them jelly beans. It is good thing you took photos because the rare bird committee of New Hampshire usualy will...

I could have taken a similar picture except the thieving critter was a marmot. Cute factor of 1.0 vs cute factor for the martin 9.8.

Great job..congrats. I am sorry to have missed the event.

Not sure why the Iceman reminds me of Wes Welker this past weekend. Serioulsy, the Mercola piece is interesting from a medical sociology viewpoint...Mercola is mainly read by people who have rejected science based medicine. They don't care if there are peer reviewed citations. Many have had a...

Now there is a diagnosis for it can we get insurance to cover it?
