RoT Sponsor Like bubba, I need an RoT sponsor. Unlike him, though, I'm not a smart a$$. Nilsa, so sorry to hear about your mishap. I hope and pray your recovery is uneventful and complete. teejay

Sunday Has anyone joining this hike made plans to stay/camp in the area the night before? Or is everyone driving up that morning? I'll definitely be there either from my base camp in Rutland or will stay in the area. teejay

Watch it, Jay, I'm still only 111111 in gigafloppies, or is that megafarkels, or teracottas, or kiloparsecs. Decimalize that binary while I finish counting the bytes on my formatted 8" diskette. Taking life one nanosecond at a time. teejay

Ithaca State Parks Don't miss Taughannock Falls at the State Park. It is about 3/4 mi. of level walking from the road and it is spectacular, over 200' high, especially if there is a lot of water coming over. There are other trails at the park as well As far as camping at SPs, there is also...

Indian Lake hiking M R, Tell your sister to go www.adk.org. Scan down on the left side and find the Chapter information. It looks like the local chapter there would be Cold River. If she goes there, there is contact information for the Co-chairs and the Outings Chair. I don't think you...

I'll let Doug do the math of the thermodynamics, the radiant solar heat, heat transfer properties of the car's trunk and the water bottles, and all the other trivialities that will undoubtedly answer your question beyond a shadow of a doubt. What I'd do, techie, sciency type that I am, would...

I plan on climbing tiny little Poke-O-Moonshine next Friday, the 23rd. Hiking the "new" trail which begins about a mile south of the campground on Rt. 9. This trail was recently described in Adirondack Explorer. The climb is moderate, gaining ~1200' in about 2 miles. I plan on a relaxed hike...

Last year our intrepid group of three riders, two REAL ones and a virtual one (if that's what you call riding without a bike) raised, as I remember, about $2800. There was tremendous support from the VFTT community as well as from many family and friends. And, just remember, there's no reason...

Thanks, bubba I had thought of starting a team and riding again this year and talked to Carmel about it at UFC's, but still hadn't reached a decision. Now, thanks to bubba, the load is off my shoulders, as he's taken the lead to set up the virtual team this year. Wonderful. Plus, it'll save...

The owners of Bear Vault®are offering an upgraded lid for the BV 350/400 that they hope will thwart the bear at Marcy Dam that has figured out how to open them. Right now it appears that only one bear in the area has learned how to open them, but it's only a matter of time before others learn...

That's been my signature for a long time, "What, me hurry?" With over 50 years hiking and not even at 40/46 yet, there's a way to go yet. So Phil, thanks for taking my advice. There really is no rush, is there? Huge congratulations to you and Doug. I was glad to have lent my support though...

Gee, I just turned 111111 my last birthday. Next year I'll be 1000000. Cool, eh? Older than dirt!!! teejay
