    help on old road to summit of Killington

    ok, I misunderstood. I wouldn't have quite been in the right area. Never mind. :o

    help on old road to summit of Killington

    Late last month, I hiked to Killington from Shrewsbury Peak. So I was on the Long Trail from south of Little Killington to Cooper Lodge. I was looking for the top of that carriage road since that was the way I'd come up once before after visiting Mendon. It is a lot more noticeable than I...

    Belknap Range

    The one in the middle of the map is Anna. I've hiked 10 of the 12, and Major more than once. But as previously mentioned, Carole is the expert on these.

    pre-emptive explanation 10/13/07 for HH 60 and F-1-11 Phantoms

    I saw them from the Cannon Tram parking lot Saturday morning. Sure looked like F-15s (or something similar) but definitely not A-10s.

    Moab in late January?

    hey, she did say Moab in the title. I don't know anything about skiing so I went with what I knew. Obviously 4 days would not be enough time to see all that stuff anyway. I don't recall any roads that had road closure gates on the way to Moab, I remember mostly flat desert. But I drove thru...

    Moab in late January?

    Arches National Park is a few miles from Moab. When I was there (in August), it was really hot. I talked with one of the rangers, and she said that in the winter the daytime high temps were around 30, they got very little snow, and (the best part) hardly anyone went there then. It would...

    toll increase in NH

    not entirely true. There used to be tokens. Tokens gave a 50% discount. Now there's EZ-Pass, which only has a 30% discount. I still like having EZ-Pass, but since it was supposed to save the state money, why am I paying more? What happened to the savings? if you only go thru once in...

    Mt Abraham and Mt Ellen backpack?? (VT)

    I went out and back from Lincoln Gap two years ago. I've got really nothing to add other than make sure you follow the rules at Battell Shelter

    Should I go for a hike this weekend?

    is there an open bar at the wedding?

    Rocky Branch Campsite

    Almost immediately after the last little brook crossing on the Isolation trail on the left as you go uphill was an official signed spot. The site area right before the junction with the Davis Path seems to have fewer sites than a few years ago and there was some revegatation going on there. I...

    ‘List’less hiking

    not sure about those two species, but gray jays certainly seem to. Probably they've learned that people will tend to linger there for a bit, and it's easiest to get a quick meal there as opposed to somewhere else where the people are usually moving. They must not be working on the list though...

    Old Men on Moxie (9/22)

    Someone, that I presume is one of the "striplings" that you refer to, would consider people like Albee (and me) to be in the same category as you and the other two on your hike. As I recall from our Bonds traverse, she thinks 30 is old.

    Scar W (#100)

    PM me if you want to know the secret for how to find it easily. I won't post it publicly since for some that's part of the fun.

    just bring a GPS that knows north from south next time. :p Congrats on #100, Buckyball.

    Jay X 2 = 100 (9/15/07)

    looks like you found my pictures on you own. too bad about the lack of views longer range than 50 feet. But since most of it would have been Canada and New York, I wouldn't have known what I was looking at anyway.

    Astronomer/Hikers: Objects in the Night Sky

    umm, I think the Geico cavemen are the only ones with a chance for it to happen to them. :p :D

    Prosecution for unauthorized trail maintenance in WMNF

    So the picture was taken while southbound on the Davis Path, it was on my left. It was in the same place on September 1. Some other people walked right by it that day. There is another sign, the white with green lettering large rectangular AMC/FS contraption, almost right across the trail...
