    Hike to Hale via FW Trail 3/7/09 (Or what some people will do for a view)

    Too funny, great idea. Mt Field would be another great candiate for a snow tower. I've been on Zealand the past two winters and it's had fine views from very near the summit.

    garfield approach conditions

    Hi Bryan, I can tell you that most of the snowbridges in the area going to N. Twin Mt were still pretty solid on Sunday but anymore rain or warm-up is going to take care of them. I also noticed the big sign where we parked when we did Garfield a few years ago has a big sign now warning folks.

    Congratulations to the Winter Warriors!

    I don't have one but I think just the piping color changed from red to blue, this one was re-designed. Maybe someone here has a picture of the old one they would share.

    Bonds plan, advice wanted please

    I did the traverse N-S recently and was glad to not have to go back across that col and back up over Bond. We exited at Lincoln Woods like most having spotted a car. Heading back from Bondcliff, up and over Bond-Guyot-Zealand and out to 302 could be tough mentally. It's a heck of a long day...

    Congratulations to the Winter Warriors!

    As we head into the final weekend of winter, I just wanted to say congrats to those who finished their W48, did them solo, or finished in one season. It's been a great winter! I just got my patch in the mail.

    Winter 4K Completion, Finally

    Congratulations Tom! :) I'm glad you finished on Zealand, that is a magnificent mountain in the winter and I know how hard you battled on that snowy February a couple of years ago. Great triumph and well deserved! See you at the awards dinner in April! We get to be the first to get the NEW...

    Early April Carters/Wildcat?

    The ridge will still have winter conditions as Vegematic says. Snow hangs around up there until Memorial Day every year. I did this hike up Imp and across the ridge in May a few years ago. I would have snowshoes for sure in April. Memorial day near Carter Ridge/Imp

    What happens when you try to hike a 4000-footer and get, um, a little turned around?

    I've been lost on Tripoli Road before but when we did the Twins in winter I asked Kevin Rooney and his instructions were great: In the winter, "You can park at the 7 Dwarfs Motel for $3-5, walk up the balance of the road, make a right over the bridge following a snowmobile trail, and make a...
