We could see it here. My hubby got a couple of pictures... this one is my favorite: Lunar eclipse - Ivy

I use Firefox and it worked fine for me. - Ivy

North Jay is the peak just north of Doll Peak. There was not a herd path to the summit from the LT that we saw. When I was going through the LT in that section, a fellow hiker did the North Jay bushwhack (I did not.) The spot he went in, at least, did not have a herd path... nor did I see one...

I was a Beta tester too. They had a survey at the end that asked how you felt about different subscription rates... all were less than $20 per year. I also had the impression that they were going to offer a free version as well with very limited functionality... basically only good for trip...

There aren't any bunks in the shelter... you either sleep on the floor or on the loft area. There are no mattresses so you are right that you'll need sleeping pads. Just walk in and claim a spot if the caretaker isn't there. He/She will be around later to collect the money. When I've stayed in...

Michael is right.... the sign is easier to read if you have some snow to fill in the letters. Picture here. - Ivy

Great report Amicus and congrats on picking up a few more of the NEHH! Sure sounds like you had a much easier time on Dorset than I did. :) - Ivy

You don't indicate where you searched... but I've had good luck in the past finding info on airline wreckage here: http://www.ntsb.gov/ntsb/query.asp Edited to add: I think I've found it. Here's a report of a crash on Mt. Fitch in Sept. 1988. Click here - Ivy

I would definitely recommend getting a duffle for it.... we use a couple of duffles I bought on sale at Beans which are huge and work great. Like Giggy said, we leave the packs empty and stuff it and everything else into the duffle. I used to fly without using a duffle, making sure to secure...

I'll add a third.... I've flown with my stove many times and never had a problem (both in continental U.S. flights and international ones.) I just clean it as best I can and place it in my checked baggage. I've never had an issues. I usually fly with my alcohol stove but I've also brought my...

Really enjoyed the report and pictures. Awesome job and congrats!! - Ivy

Really enjoyed your report Mike -- Madison Gulf is high on my to-do list for this summer. You must be getting really close on the Northern Presi redlining... do you have many trails left? - Ivy

Congrats Buckyball and good luck on Scar Ridge! :) - Ivy

Thanks for getting my kayak out on a paddle away from my "home" lake for the first time. It was great to catch up with Sherpa K and meet a whole bunch of new people too. :) It was a great way to unwind after a busy work day. I hope my work schedule will allow me to attend another in the future...

I encountered timber rattler along the AT in Connecticut a few years ago... but can't remember exactly where at this point. - Ivy

It's not just you Raymond. The video doesn't work for me anymore either.... thought I was able to view it initially. - Ivy

I was thinking the same thing... if I arrived at BSP to find someone parked in my spot, I would go straight to the rangers.... I would have assumed there was some sort of mix up and the shelter was double booked or something. I would be surprised if a ranger wouldn't walk over and take down a...

This was a really great hike -- I just wish I didn't miss out on the best views. But work and a headache conspired against me on this one. Thanks Rocksnrolls for organizing this... I was glad to get a chance to hike in the Baldface area again after a long absence. There were lots of...

I'm going to try to be there -- depends on whether I have any evening assignments at work. - Ivy

When we hiked that section, we parked in a lot at Dartmouth College (though it was just an overnight trip.) We called the Dartmouth Outing Club and they directed us to the particular lot- (it changes if I recall correctly) they were very nice and helpful. - Ivy
