Hi Audrey, Pat and Genie, thanks for the wonderful evening. And our musical talents Michael J, Katie and Fred, for beautiful performance. I had a great time!! Thank you, look forward to next year!

Hi John, I've an EMS 650-fill Down w/o hood and an EMS Prima-Loft w hood. The down one is lighter and take out much less space. The Prima-loft is heavier (even without hood), less squeezable, but warmer. I ended up taking the Down one to the Big R and the prima-loft for NE winter hikes. The...

I'll be there. I have been practicing making Korean pancake, the last batch was quite edible, at least all ingredients were cooked :o.

It reminded me more of Pointillism, like Seurat. To me this picture works better if the rocks in the foreground was cropped. I personally really like grainy effect, when I was in college, I deliberately developed the film with warmer solution to achieve that (and ISO 800).

Personally I think Arrow Slide is a bit scarier than the North Slide. I'm more afraid of big slab than loose scree on a slide. The slab section on the North Slide is at the bottom of the slide, if you loose your footing there, you may not fall too far. When I climbed Arrow Slide, I stayed close...

Hi Peter, Congratulations on finishing the 67. I still have a long way to get there :o. An even bigger congrats to you to have raised such a nice young man, the big smile on his face seemed he's very proud of his very cool dad :cool:. Hope to hike with you soon!

Congrats again Dani, that was a lot of fun. I was really impressed by Emily and Sean, great kids. Yes they were... I was coughing a trail of blood trying to keep up with them. Here are my pics from the hike. Great fun!!

I've recently hiked Ellen and Abraham from Jerusalem trail to Lincoln Gap (N-S). Jerusalem Trail is very gentle all the way to Long Trail and even up to Ellen. The wooded ridge is an easy walk. The upper section after the summit of Abraham toward Lincoln Gap has couple of steep section...

Ridgewalker, it was pretty much what giggy said, the steepest part was in the woods, once you got out of the woods, it was pretty much your typical northern presi rock hopping kinda terrain. If you're looking to climb something like Arrow Slide or North Slide etc, Adams Slide is not in the...

When you see your hiking friends more often in bars than on a trail, you know you have a problem. So when giggy asked if I wanted to join his group to climb Adams Slide, I signed up without much hesitation. Most of the group were camped out at White Birches the night before, I probably the only...

Well at least you remembered to take the exit, I drove right pass it and had to turn around couple exits later. D'oh! I hiked Ellen and Abraham last weekend, that was my first hike in VT and I had the same impression about the green mossy trails.

Way to go Dawn!! That's just amazing, what a great accomplishment. Most importantly seems like you have a lot of fun doing it too. We need another beer night celebration... :D, seriously. Hope to see you soon.

Congratulations Your Majesty, it was such a great honor to hike with you on your #48 and many other peaks along the journey. I'll be at your service as usual whenever you want to conquer Maine and Vermont. Here are the pictures I took from the day, will add annotation and detail later...

Hey thanks for leading the trip, it was a lot of fun. The worst bushwhacking was from the dry riverbed to get to the bottom of the talus field, it was somewhat steep and very thick. Just a short distance of bushwhacking took a lot out of me. By the time we climbed the talus slide, I was pretty...

I chose "I'm proud of my accomplishments and I want to share that feeling with others" Although 2 out of the 3 reports I posted were not much of a accomplishment, but I felt like they're worthy experiences to me (a positive spin on my failures :p) and would like to share them. I also chose "I...

Hey Jay, first of all congratulations on your 46ers finish. I didn't make it to your 46, but at least I was there for your 45 :p. Gathering like this is always a great reunion for me, I hardly have the chance to see you, Al and Terri, not to mention hike with. Even better I got to meet and...

What can I say.... some of us are just drinker with hiking problem :D.

Hi Spence and Maddi, thank you for having us in your backyard again, too bad I missed Brian and Ruth by few seconds, please send my regards to them. It was a great weekend, great seeing all of you. I have finally tasted Seema's famous curry and heard Funky Freddy's musical talent, both were...

Hey Spence and Maddy, thanks for putting this together again. I'll be there Friday night 8ish. Can't wait for the barn fire. Well bubba, it looks kinda dry so far. Saturday night looks good for watching Perseid meteor shower. See you all Friday.

I always bring my cell phone(turn off) and camera on my hikes, sometimes my iPod and Palm just because I don't want to leave them in the car. I don't listen to music when I hike, and it doesn't bother me if other people do. I brought my iShuffle backpacking in ADK and up Rainier, Caetano Veloso...
