    Hiker OK After Getting Stuck On Mount Moosilauke

    We saw you coming down while we were on our way up yesterday morning and you looked great for having just come off an unexpected night on the mountain. The girls say "you're rugged!"

    What's in your hike plan

    I usually include what I'm wearing and my planned bail routes (should I need them). My "call out the calvary" times vary. If I'm out with my little MooseMaiden, they're allowed to start worrying about 5 hours after my expected time back, but aren't to call out SAR until 12 hours. If I'm out...

    Do you take painkillers, ibuprofen, etc. when hiking?

    True - but I'm also fortunate in that I very rarely experience much, if any, swelling before, during, or after a hike :)

    Headache while hiking. If not dehydration, then what?

    Believe it or not, you may actually be drinking too much water. The rule of thumb that I've seen (especially from thru-hiking guides/info books) is that you should have to take a bio-break about every 4 hours or so.

    Do you take painkillers, ibuprofen, etc. when hiking?

    I don't take any pain relievers when I hike and generally don't need to take them after a hike either. As others have said, pain is the body's way of saying something's going wrong and I want to be able to hear it so that I can be hiking well into my years.

    Question on northern Presis route

    If you're looking for a fairly easy (relatively speaking) hike out, how about Valley Way off of Madison?
