Thanks for the greenie Mr T!!

If I had a magic wand I echo what LRiz says. If a had a magic wand I would say, "HEAL!!!" keep us updated.

You are quite welcome. You will still need s.shoes as the snow is loose slippery deep powder. Have fun and bring back better photos than we could manage!! Check out Val's photos of the trip. She has some great ones. Karen

I had my doubts about this hike from the warmth of my bed Saturday night. The unrelenting howling winds kept me tossing and turning and worrying about the next days trek up Mount Moosilauke. But I have to say that despite the roaring winds and blowing snow our group of 7 ( a lucky number right?)...

Thanks Guys!

Is this trail head parking area plowed? Our group is going out tomorrow. I saw a trail conditions report from an unregistered user but it did not mention the parking lot conditions. Can anyone tell me? Thanks Karen

Date of Hike 1/1/2010 Mount Percival and Mt. Morgan via Mt. Percival Tr., Crawford Ridgepole Trail, Mount Morgan Tr. Special Equipment needed. Snowshoes or light traction Trail conditions varied from snow covered rocks, icy ledge, wet rocky leafy areas, to plenty of snow for snowshoeing. We...

I noticed in your post re "so what have you done in 2009" that orchids were in there. What kind do you have? My namesake is about to bloom in my sunroom. 4 large spikes in bud and starting to flower and 5 more spikes just starting. I will post a photo when it is farther along. Is there an orchid...

You are a hale and hearty soul big earl! I was out with a group that day on Tom and we encountered the worst weather on the I-93 drive (white out conditions) and the Highland Center Parking lot! Great TR Earl. You are a hale and hearty soul!

Wow what a great hiking year it was! My 2009 hiking memories: I got back into hiking in 2008 after a long time away from the mountains. Thanks to all my hiking friends I got out 70 days in 2009! Many of them with Silverfox (a great mentor for many of us), Mary Cullen (a hiking dynamo and my...

Positive thoughts and prayers for Bobby and family I join in with Mike and others who do not know you but who are thinking of you and your family right now. We are all sending you positive healing thoughts and prayers. Karen

Thanks for the greenie ski guy! It was a fun but COLD day!

Lots of great ideas! Thanks everyone for the great advice. I did a little experiment with my original idea but making sure to put my camera & anemometer in one zip loc bag along with a couple of dessicant thingys I got from my vitamins, a Gu energy gel and a granola bar in another zip loc bag...

Ditto ! That's my philosophy too!!

Presents!!! I got the book Haunted Hikes of NH, a LaCrosse anemometer and a cool hand dyed batik handkerchief. and a bottle of godiva white chocolate liqueur:)

Yesterdays sub zero hike on Tom yielded frozen camera, windspeed gadget and snacks. After using an insulated waterbottle holder and freezer pack this past summer to keep my sandwich cool, I had this idea. Insulated water bottle holder and a handwarmer. Would that work to keep snacks from...

Date of hike: 12/29/09 Trails: Avalon, AZ and Mt. Tom Spur. Conditions: 12 inches of new unbroken powder dictated snowshoes round trip. The trail is in good condition no serious blowdowns as of this Tues Hike. All but the widest stream crossing held up well by days end and I suspect that that...

The powder was really flying on some of these shots. What fun! Thanks for sharing.
