Hi I'm planning on a weekend trip to ADK. May I know is the parking charges at the Loj based on per entry or per day. Can I sleep in my car, if not is there a place near by where I can safely do so. Thanks!

:D :D :D :D :D Here are my share of the pictures: http://www.huiyengchang.com/hike/08owlshead/

Thanks Mats, great report and great pictures Darlene, awesome weekend!! Congratulations to all who needed the OH for their list, it indeed is a very hard-earned summit. I always utter "This is so wrong" when I'm in despair. I recalled saying that when we're about to cross a swamp with no...

Cayenne can also dash from 0-62 MPH in 6.5 seconds and gulping down 11/17 MPG :p It will thin your blood, may not cure your headache thou.

Hi Kim nice report and very nice to meet you. The terrain on Presidential range can be very unforgiving for bad knees and weak ankles. My knees were in bad shape few years back. After consulted the DR and PT, I stuck to a work out routine and taking Glucosamine daily. The pain went away and...

BRAVO!! Congratulations on the admirable efford. What an amazing group of people. (Somehow there were tears in my eyes while reading your summary :confused: !?) To me this is more than just a climbing affair, this is the Fellowship of the Axe, friendship in the making and thickening. You guys...

Yes Dave Bear, thanks for the delicious chicken cutlets, they're perfectly cooked. I'm glad you guys like the satay chicken, it was relatively easy to make. This is the recipe that I loosely followed. Mookie, I'm sure we'll have a team Zoom-Zoom reunion hike in the future :cool:

Great report and pictures! That was a fun hike. After enduring the crappy weather and increasingly sore knee all morning long, I was so close to bail from Washington, but was glad I continued on and rewarded by a gorgeous sunny afternoon on the southern presidential range with friends. Great...

Whew... so glad that they're all safe and sound. Agreed with Dave Bear this is a great team work, really don't matter to me who summited. More importantly would they be back in time for the upcoming beer night, or we can always have another one. Can't wait to hear all the glorious details and a...

I almost miss this thread. Yes I'm in. And John, you may want to tie a reflective strap on poor Zippy so that we won't keep stepping on him. Kinda hard to see him in the dark. :p

Go team DOM, and Nat, Jean and Leaf. Hope everyone have a safe and successful trip. Can't wait to hear all about it when they all return. Sending positive vibes and prayers.... Thanks for the updates, eagerly waiting for the next installment....

Date of Hike: May 25 08 Trail Conditions: Howker Ridge Tr: few snow patches after Pine Line junction, more snow at the ridge. Not bad, a pair of gaiters would be useful. Easy rivercrossings, few blowndowns along the trail eaily walked around or climbed over/under. A bit of ice on upper section...

We got a small crowd tonight gathered around listened to Lei's adventures, range from marriage proposal from Prince of Dubai, Korean sugar daddy and yes the audacious journey to south pole, Vinson and Aconcagua. Good to see you again Stan, and nice to meet you Eric, and the always witty Dave...

Oh my, it's tomorrow. Here is a final confirmation, the beer night will be held at John Harvard's at Harvard Square, on 2/19 Tuesday. I'll be there around 7PM, will stay till midnight. And I think Lei will stay till quite late too. http://www.johnharvards.com/brews.htm and the map. Looking...

OK, Tuesday 2/19 John Harvard's at Harvard Square, just a short walk from the T. Or Redbones at Davis Sq? http://www.johnharvards.com/brews.htm I've checked with mountaingirl she is willing to run 2 presentations for early crowd and the late crowd. We'll be there around 6:30 PM till they...

Hmm I forgot about Banff Film Festival happen in the same week. How is 2/27 (wed)?

As you know, mountaingirl is back in town from her very successful Antarctica adventure with many of stories and pictures to share, prefect time to have our monthly Boston beer night again. Tentatively I set the date to 2/19 (tue), but open for discussion and suggestion for venue too. Looking...

Lei summited Aconcagua!! Way to go Lei! Her next stop is North Pole and then..... EVEREST in May. More of her trip reports can be found here. Not sure when she will be back, another beer night for sure will be scheduled.

Hey all, looks like you guys had a great weekend, I was thinking of you all. The cabin looks like a resort to me :). So Mats, I guess the sled was holding up OK? Thanks for the great report and pictures.

Looking at his picture, Marty has very thick and full long hair and may need more care than the 2 short hair cats. I brush my cat at least once a day and she still have hair ball problem occasionally. Nin is black and white, so my vote goes to the orange and white Wilson, this election is...
