    Couchsachraga for Grace

    We saw Pin Pin while we were on the summit of Couchie. He came breezing by while we were still catching or breath and looking for all the scrabble tiles.

    If you had ONE week in Alaska . . . what would you do?

    I agree with Spongebob about the Kesugi ridge trail in Denali State Park. Even though he got all his info by me being his tour guide. As an Anchorage resident I would not recommend Chugach State Park, as Sardog1 hinted at we like to keep the best stuff for ourselves. :D To me the State Parks...

    Denali Nat'l Park in winter?

    If I remember correctly the Park road is closed in the winter just pass the visitors center. The Aurora Borealis will make up for the short days. You have to drive above the Ice Fog to see them. There are a couple of good places for that. For a nice drive you can drive down towards Paxson on...

    Alaska vs. the Canadian Rockies

    If you only have 1 week and want day hikes I would pick Alaska. Everyone says go to Denali. I would say you are better off going to the Kenai Pennisula south of Anchorage. Tons of day hikes along Turnagain Arm which the most scenic road I have been on. There are also tons of day hikes easily...

    Barefoot on the AT in Maine

    I hope his feet are ready for the ROCKS of Pennsylvania. Is he carrying boots? Every long distance barefoot hiker I met carried boots for rough sections.

    What kind of hiker are you?

    I like to hike fast until I find an interesting spot to stop. I then wait for my wife to catch up and hang out with her. Then I repeat over and over again. This way I get lots of time at nice spots. The only time I do not stop is if I am hiking with Spongebob. I just try to lose him. Has not...

    Hiking in the Nude

    1) No 2) Yes, 3 times Once on the AT I saw a naked backpacker as I stood there in shock he said "Excuse my nakedness" and kept hiking. The second time I was hiking with my girlfriend(wife now) in Connecicut and saw a nude man running down a trail away from us. The third time was in Alaska last...

    What have you found in the woods?

    Back in the 90's near Norwich Vermont I was hiking southbound on the AT and ran into a friend from the west coast that I had not seen or heard from in 6 years. Not quite finding something but unusual considering the last time I saw him neither one of us was into hiking.
