Nice meeting you too. It was a steep climb up Avalon but it was over pretty quick. Did you butt slide down Avalon or just slide on your snowshoes? Hope to see you again on the trails. thanks for that coffee!

Totally agree with you. The opportunity for a new adventure is what gets me outdoors doing the things I like to do. Hiking, skiing, ice fishing, regular fishing, camping, exploratory bushwhacks, tracking, hunting, cowboy action shooting, kayaking. It's all about the adventure, the experience...

That is amazing that way back then a women hiker did that much mountain hiking. They made them tough back then too I guess. Sweet. Thanks for sharing.

Great trip report. You guys did great getting some of those peaks bagged. Congrats to you all.

Absolutely gorgeous photos! What a grand day you had up on the Moose. If it had only been a little warmer and less windy it would have been the perfect winter hike, right? Hey did Justin use those ski's it looked like he had on his back?

Thanks grouseking and hiking lady for the encouragement. Grouseking- Glad I could bring you down memory lane. I really enjoyed hiking those summits this time around. Can't wait to see them again. The more times I hike each summit in different seasons the more I am beginning to discover my...

I had only modest goals of 8 summits for this season and I have them done. Anything else is a bonus. Now I have some idea what I can do I guess I will have a little more lofty goals next year. There are 4 weekends left for winter so I am hoping to get at least 4 more done. It depends on the...

What an awesome experience it must be to accomplish such a large undertaking as The Grid! You both deserve a hardy congratulations for persevering through some incredible weather and trail conditions over the various months of the year. What would you say were the toughest months to accomplish...

Gorgeous photos.Wow! Must have been a beautiful day up there. I'm envious.

A big CONGRATULATIONS!!! to both of you on your grid finish. I thought about joining you but was not sure I was up for it or not. I thought I might see you at the Highland Center in the morning before your hike but I gather I missed you or it wasn't on the way for you. I know you often stop...

ok I just figured it all out. Only 12 done with 36 to go. I'll be 89 years old at completion. It's a goal. As Still Steppin said, Maybe going for this goal will trick my body into believing I am younger than it really is. Hee Hee. It is possible, not probable, but possible. All I have to do is...

great idea, i love it. Thanks

Totally agree!!!
