If your friend is getting married in October, there might be some nice fall foliage at the lower elevations still. The pair of Sugarloaf Peaks in Twin Mountain are nice. A trip up and around Lonesome Lake is not too tough and quite interesting.

We have not changed anything, nor plan to. We just discussed it. I agree it's a challenging trail and the only "improvements" being planned are a new ladder to replace the rotted out one, some cairns, and blazing.

I'm one of the co-adopters for the section of the Wildcat Ridge Trail from Rt. 16 to Wildcat D. The other adopters and I have kicked around ideas of a bad weather bypass. The area around Tdawg's photo is quite steep and can be daunting in foul weather. Whomever carved that section of...

Dugan, One the way home I noticed one. Granted with the condition of that last section, it should come as no surprise.

Signups will be in Mid-July on the Flags site. The exact time and date will be determined in the near future and posted here. Just a small word of advice to all: Have a backup peak or two confirmed with your group in case the peak you wish is selected before you get a chance to sign up...

Break-ins suck no matter where you are. Very surprised to hear it was at the Lafayette lot. It gets a lot more traffic then other trailheads. My question is: Has the video monitoring ever caught anyone and if so what was the punishment? I thought I read somewhere that some folks were...

Had the honor of hiking several times with you and wish I could have been there for the last one. Drop me a line when you want to hit that Arrow Slide! Congrats!

Thanks to everyone that participated! It's very humbling to see such a response. Many thanks to Darren and the moderators for allowing us to post about the event on these forums. Pics and trail reports of the hike can be found at Flagsonthe48.org I was on North Twin and could see with...

We've had a cancelation and are looking for some help on Isolation. We need someone who can be responsible for making sure that a Flag makes it to the summit. Please PM me if your are interested or can help out in some way. Thanks

20 days until the Memorial Event and we have about 225 participants. There is still room to help support a peak. Thanks to everyone who has signed up.

We have full coverage!!!! Thanks to everyone for helping out. Still there are openings for anyone who wishes to help out a peak coordinator on any particular peak.

Getting close. Only three peaks left: Mt. Bond West Bond Mt. Washington (Auto Road access available) Many open slots for peaks with coverage as well. Group size limit is 10. Thanks to everyone who is helping out.

Eight peaks left: Mt. Bond West Bond Middle Carter South Carter South Hancock East Osceola Middle Tripyramid Washington - Auto Road access available. Thanks to everyone who has volunteered to help out so far.

Thanks Darren. VFTT members have been very supportive in the past with comments and their participation. All I ask for now is good weather and a steady breeze. Peace

Sign-ups for 2006 are offically open now. Thanks in advance to everyone that participates.

In my yard, my dog is king and he knows it. The yard is fenced in and he only barks at two things: when a stranger that he does not know, comes into the yard and the mailman. Out on the trail, he is very much more reserved. He will only have the behavior that started this thread only...

In regards to MichaelJ's post, yes, you can hike the former ski area. The Metacomet-Mondanock trail passes about 150 yards from where the top of the skilift. It's getting overgrown in some spots and becoming a off-road vehicle haven for some folks. Atkins Farms, which Michael mentioned...

Nate hit a bunch of really good spots. The Metacomet-Mondanock trail is very interesting. The Seven Sisters from the Notch to Mt. Holyoke is always one of my favorites. The Robert Frost trail is very underated as well. The Northampton Bike Trail is a nice ride and not too far from...
