Pix Beautiful pix!!! Guess its time for a trip south of the Equator. Thanks for posting.

Remember last year.... Obviously there is a lot of snow late in the season this year. Certainly this may effect the wildlife to some extent (on a bare patch of ground earlier this week in NE VT I saw about 20 robins) but last year, I was hiking bareboot in the Whites to 4000 foot summits (with...

Change in plans Well, as it turned out work schedules change....so my new date is going to be 04/21/2007. If this interests anyone let me know.

Looking to do a little hiking on 04/14/2007 in New Hampshire or Vermont. I am thinking either Mt. Ellen in VT or perhaps Mt. Cabot, Mt. Moriah, or Isolation in NH. If this sounds interesting to anyone give me a hollar (PM) or feel free to post. See ya out there. Enapai

My Hiking Companion.... My hiking partner is Colden, he is a 2 year old Lab. Yes, he is named after the ADK peak. Here is a link to a pic of us at the top of Mount Marshall. Hiking Partners Enapai

Schedules for ANG trainings and other ramblings... It is my understanding that there is a significant swath of airspace above the NEK in VT and North Country of NH that is considered semi-restricted for military training use. Based upon my interaction with ANG pilots, I do believe there is a...

Does anyone have any experience going this route? Anyone I need to talk to at the ski area before making the attempt? Any particular trail (ski or otherwise) I can take to minimize my impact on skiers? Thinking about doing this on 03/19/2007. Thanks in advance.

Winter Record Mats, Sometimes Mother Nature can pull a fast one even with the best planning. I know from first hand experience. Mats, it was great to hike with you and I would be happy to help you out in future adventures. Till our paths cross once more. Dave

Confirmation Thanks for the notice, it had been my understanding all along that this route was closed and not to be used, I just figured I would double check to see if I was out of the loop. Thanks.

It was rumoured to me that the Mt Cabot trail was acceptable to use. They cited VFTT as a source of this information. I searched some of the archives to see if there was some discussion on this topic but could not find any. Does anybody have info on this topic?

After a month not being in the mountains, I feel the need to return. Anyone interested in joining me for a hike? I don't have much left to finish up my 48, would like to maybe hit Moriah or Passconaway but will listen to anyone interested. Feel free to post or PM me.

Yeah Snow!!!! Well over 2 feet at this point in Danville, VT (just west of St. Johnsbury), probably be close to 3 feet by the end of the storm. Spent some time walking around in my yard. Should be fun breaking trail for the next couple of days!!!

RPR Bushwhack. Having been with DL Hiker, I would recommend that anyone with some confidence in using a compass and feeling out topography strongly consider 'whacking down from the col between RPR and Giant Peak. Finding the creek bed was pretty easy (within 500 yards of the trail - just bear...

Hiking in Hawaii My wife and I were out on Kauai in 2004. We hiked a bunch around Waimea Canyon. This is an aboslutely beautiful area and has a well deserved reputation as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. There are numerous hikes in the area that range from 2 hours to all day. We did a hike...

Poles For years, I never carried poles because I thought they were not worth the effort to carry them. One of my closest hiking buddies (who has also had back surgery (x2) and knee surgery came up for 3 days of hiking out in the Carter Range area. He suggested at least trying one pole while we...

I have to say, when I was in Rocky Mountain National Park this summer, it was mobbed just about everywhere we went (except the Never Summer Range - which are the best part of he park IMHO). We spent several nights in the back country in areas that were supposedly "quiet areas" and there still...

Teton Crest Trail receives my vote. I have heard the Teton Crest Trail is one of the top trails and properly belongs on any life list. I am heading to Glacier NP in June. Happy Trails.

I would be interested. Check out my e-mail.

Thinking about hitting this tommorow. Anyone been to the top recently. Saw the recent threads, but the latest thread was from 04/25. Thanks.
