I noticed the website doesn't display prices for these drift cams, but it looks like a decent cam. Do note that the one you have linked to is not HD, not sure if that makes a difference for you. They have HD Models, and from looking at the website of their NY dealer, the price for the HD170 is...

Very nice pictures, and what a spectacular treat to end the hike. Reminds me of my first Lafayette-Lincoln hike, cloudy and stormy at first, and nice to end it. You never know what you're going to get up on the ridge! Happy to see the snow amount in the whites is increasing with every trip...

I have REI Endeavor convertible pants, and I wear either my thin REI base layer pant or my REI heavy-weight polartec underpant with them depending on how cold it is out. Looking for a slightly more durable pant, I went from the REI Sahara pant in the summer to the endeavor pant in the fall and...

Picked this "snowboogie" up at EMS last year. It works great in a backyard luge. I'm itching to strap this baby to my back for a couple of hikes this winter. :D I haven't seen this same sled in stores since though.

Freight - Thank you. I was aware, especially after having done it and watching the video myself, that this might spark some discussion, which I am completely open to. I don't have any avalanche training at all. I only recently took the EMS Winter Climbing, which teaches you how to walk on...

On Monday, it was a perfect weather day for my next challenge, which was to summit Mt. Washington by going up Tuckerman Ravine Trail...of some sort. It was a difficult and beautifully intense challenge, and one that certainly met my expectations perfectly. I love this rugged view on the...

Having done Washington in October, November and December (and want to do it again this winter), this news struck a close chord with me. My thoughts go out to the loved ones of the victim. I agree with Becca, I am curious to know if the hiker's intention was to descend the headwall, solo, and at...

Thanks for sharing, another great day of undercast clouds on the ridge. There seems to be a pattern of late with the clouds, and its beautiful. My favorite picture of this bunch is looking back over the ridge (first set).

Very impressive photos and congrats on an awesome hike. New Year's Day appeared to be a great weather day to hike. These photos make me want to get right back up there.

Last year for New Year's Eve I stood on top of Mt. Monadnock, knowing I was about to embark on a year-long journey. This New Year's, I capped the year with a winter ascent of Mt. Washington. The Tuckerman Ravine Trail required light traction up to the summer Lion Head Trail. The winter route is...

Thank you very much Karl and Maddy. I just posted the report and pictures. I hope you enjoy. A Franconia Ridge Christmas Completion - Trip Report The Full Album

John - Thank you so much, I be sure to share the congrats with him. It was a pretty funny moment as we all bunched up there. After that, no one else was up there, and we broke trail all of the way from Liberty to Lafayette. Chris - Thank you also very much, its amazing to look back at how much...

What an incredible trip my brother and I ebmarked on the day after Christmas. With only one hike in the way of my brother's completion of the 48, we set off for the Flume Slide Trail to go across the ridge to take on Flume, Liberty, Lincoln, and Lafayette, where we would celebrate his completion...

After reading this thread, many ask who will complete it in one year. Browsing through the finished Grids on the official site of those who have completed it, I am curious, is Jeremy's finish the fastest at about 41 months and a few days (A little of over 3.5 years?)

Hi Earl, Your report is spot on. I passed you and Sue coming down South Twin, attempting a Pemi, which was clearly a gridiot thing to do:rolleyes:. I enjoyed your tracks only for a little while as the trail was untouched going towards Garfield. There were two hikers coming from Garfield, so I...

I love this thread, and I think its awesome that this is allowed. My brother and I came upon this beautiful tree in the middle of the night on the Unknown Pond Trail this October. If I ever owned a mansion with a large living room, this would have been the one! (if it was 8" or less in...

Sorry to hear of your loss. Thanks for sharing the stories, I've read some about Brutus, and he was clearly an incredibly strong dog that lived a beautiful life.

I have the AllTrails app and "Trailhead" app by North Face installed on my Iphone. However, I have not used either of them to track a full hike, as I never have perfect service throughout, and I'm always concerned about the battery. You can save your tracks and upload them with pictures for...

Aha, well I wonder how many months until they get that equipment going then? :rolleyes:

(Oops Saturday Dec 3rd not 5th) Since the Sawyer River Road is closed, my brother came up with the idea that we could mountain bike in to the Signal Ridge Trail on our way to Carrigain on Saturday. This turned out to be a lot of fun. We started up the road, slowly, as it was tougher on the way...
