The herd path over to Redington is so easy to follow you can actually run it! It's a great hike!

Drove to the end of Zealand Road today and saw several cars parked at the trailheads for the Sugarloafs and Hale Brook. Parked and hiked out to the hut and back - saw several folks on my way out and several more cars on the road. Both Sugarloaf campgrouds are ungated and appeaedr open. One site...

We used to use Cannon point and shoots but switched to the Panasonic Lumix ZS20 and love it! Great photos - 24mm Ultra Wide Angle Lens with 20x Optical Zoom - takes great videos. Only $180 on Amazon. Used it for the past 2 Winters and no freeze or battery problems.

We've run it a few times - nice hard trail to the height of land then get's overgrown a bit in places - hidden rocks, wet spots, but an easy to follow wide trail since it is a snowmobile trail in Winter.

The BTT is still easy to follow and used by locals.

With Dusty - 17 pound poodle/bichon mix, we tried the hard soled boots and he mostly refused too walk and when he did made it clear he was unhappy. Started using Pawz booties and he is a happy camper. This year we started using a set of doggie socks under them so we could go up one size to...

JCarter - check out the Internet Thermostats available. We use the ones by BAYweb (http://www.bayweb.com/) so that we can monitor the temp remotely - get alerted if the temp drops below a threshold - turn the temp up or down remotely by web or phone - allows you to add motion detectors - monitor...

Perhaps you need to find a way to covert the wife to be a mountain gal! ;)

You can read Tom's recap of what happened on the Facebook "The 4,000 Footer Club-Climbing and Hiking in New Hampshire" group. Both the maps I had and my GPS both said I was on the trail, but I was basically bushwacking on a 45 degree slope in snowshoes, near a not-frozen stream that was a...

You've been to our place in Twin Mountain Tim - $20 a plow - $1200 a year in propane and we are up there every weekend and many of them long ones - 1:50 door to door with easy an easy drive - fairly cheap taxes - snowmobile trails for skiing for free - tons of hiking - good cycling loops - Moore...

Been using the OR shells for years - love them! Typically wear a set of OR PL100 or PL150 liner gloves.

Dusty has 3 hikes left to finish his Winter list - just need some good weather! Pemi, who lives with Mike and Lori Innes finished on March 15, 2013 in a single season should be added. Pemi is working on a second single winter season again this year.

Most people don't know that poodles are one of the most athletic dogs! A friend and his standard poodle did a pemi loop a couple years ago in something like 9:15, and include all the side spurs including N. Twin, Zealand, Galehead, and W. Bond! Our Dusty who is 17 pounds has been up/down the...

That is actually in Bethlehem, not Twin. I looked through the towns online meeting minutes to see if there was anything there and the only thing that I saw that could be relevant was a reference to 5 gravel pits that are in Bethlehem. There is a sand pit up behind the bridge a ways that we found...

You didn't see the new sign and the roped off area along the river bank? We also were told by a hiker we chatted with that when they tried to park on the road somebody came over and told them they couldn't park there. Was the gate on the bridge open or closed? Going to take a run up the...

Zealand Road is open, but it looks like the campground is closed - just went by there 30 minutes ago.

Gale River Rd, Haystack Rd, Zealand Rd are all open as of today. Does look like the Zealand campground may be closed though the gates are across the entrance.
