That was an awesome time! Yummy food, hot fire, great friends and music! Thanks to UC for hosting!! It was great to see everyone, some that I haven’t seen since last years gathering!! I had a blast! And was my hat awesome or what ?? (thanks Donna, you’re a true friend for letting me wear it...

I added up about 24.5miles. Does anyone know (or can easily figure out) the elevation gain?

Thanks for all the nice comments! It truly was a great day to be out and I had a beautiful day, even with the unrelenting wind! I have wanted to do this hike, solo, for a long time and was thrilled to finally get out there. After reading the TR by Timmus on her traverse with Frodo the bug bit...

DISCLAIMER: COULD GET REALLY CORNY... It’s dark out and lightly snowing. Even without the sun or moon, I don’t need my headlamp to walk the road. I’m headed up the closed-for-winter Zealand Road to the Hale Brook Trail about 2.5 miles in. Forecast today is for sunny skies, mild temps, and...

Hey MT.... I waved at you from Cabot ... yeah... back to the scene of the crime as some would say. Coming down Bunnell Notch I am amazed at the route finding skills you and coldfeet displayed that night... absolutely unbelievable! I shook my head more than once and wondered how we ever made it...

I've got Tubbs with the bear hug binding ....... and I hate the binding system. Two reasons: The clips are easy enough to use, however, snow or ice build up will cause them to not snap down securely which allows the snowshoe to unbuckle in the most inconvenient places. Even just walking in...

The parking lot at 5.5 miles is large enough for several cars although not many people make the drive all the way in. Another point is that the clearing has been washed away and has a runoff rut thru the center. Even with this, there is plenty of parking on the sides and enough room to turn...

Here are my recent pics of CVR. I drove across the first wood bridge and wasn't worried about it giving way. The next two wood bridges, on the other hand, I did not drive over. http://community.webshots.com/album/553365167JjZdGc From Route 27..... at 3.9 miles you reach a metal bridge at 4.1...

CVR, also known as Caribou Pond Road, is very drivable up to the metal bridge at 3.9miles from Route 27. There’s an area for parking right before the bridge. After that, there’s a short rough uphill patch with big dips, and then there’s a wood bridge .2miles further down that is solid...

Headed up to Reddington last week using Mohammed’s directions, which may seem a bit complicated to read, but are very accurate and easy to follow once there. Exactly 1.1 miles from the AT crossing is the fork on the logging road. The cairn marking the road to the left is hidden in the...

Seema... I knew you would persevere and get back there to conquer that mountain. I am so proud and happy for you. I think back to your disappointment last year when we sat together on the rocks at Muir and now sitting here and reading of your success, I have tears in my eyes. Truly a...

yup... Do the stretches and unfortunately I would say lay off the knee for a while. I tried to do the stretches religiously when the knee was really painful. Now I only have to do them when I start to feel a twinge, but I do try to remember to just give it a good stretch now and again. So...

stick in the butt ???? :eek: hm, sounds kinda familiar

I always thought that mountain chicken was actually just black flies ?? I eat lots and lots of them in the spring. They don't have much taste, and they do tend to stick to the back of your throat, but they're not bad.

I can't get out there this weekend, but I'd definitely be interested in getting these peaks. Keep me in the loop, Amy, and good luck this weekend.
