Congrats Pat! What a great set of peaks to finish on.

Yes. Comes up from Rte 3 area in Twin Mo.

We returned from a hike Saturday to find officers from Lincoln and Franconia in the Old Bridle Path/Falling Waters trails parking lot. They had come across somebody who they believe was trying to break into a van. Unfourtuantly they were only standing behind the van when they pulled in so not...

Sorry - but no sign of previous traffic - even though we saw a group of 5 on the ridge two days earlier. Heck - there was no sign that we had been up Cathedral trail by the time we descended the day we did Baxter peak. Amazing how fast trails can get filled in with winds blowing the snow around.

We were there Dec 31 and the other car that was with us made across the last bridge just before the road takes a final sharp right. It was a small car siimilar to a civic, but we did have to push it and shovel it out due to the snow depth and the low clearance. So just watch the snow depth as...

Yes - left the skis at Roaring Brook and snowshoed up to Chimney Pond. On the descent several rode their sleds down while others barebooted or used snowshoes. Jonathan - So true, Baxter is a magnificent experience any time of the year, but even more so in Winter.

Wow! What an experience to hike in Baxter State Park during the winter. Seven of us spent 5 days in the park and were successful in our attempt to hike Baxter and Hamlin peaks. After arriving at Chimney Pond, we all agreed that even without hiking to a summit, the trip was worth the time and...

Congrats Marc - what a huge accomplishment!

I (Bob) have used the Mountain Hardwear Synchro softshell pants for the past 3 seasosn and love them. the side zippers start at ust below the pockets and go to the ankle. I either use them along, or with light/heavy long underwear based on temps. For windy days above treeline, like this past...

Comcast has issues with their DNS servers from time to time that impacts some users by area. Last time that happened we changed to Googles on our router so all the PC's in our house would use it -haven't seen an issue since.

Had issues yesterday, but is working now. We use the Google DNS servers.

Something to take into consideration is how much house you get for your money and the tax rate which can vary greatly from town to town - even neighboring towns. Twin Mountain has a very low tax rate compared to Bethlehem. Also look at how water and trash is billed. When it comes time for us to...

Awesome job Larisa - you've come so far! And kudo's to Rob for holding off finishing his own race to finish with you! We look forward to see what you do next!

Did the Kinsman Ridge trail today - with the snow on Monday night any sign of previous hikers had been wiped away. Don't think too many people do the Greenleaf trail in the Winter, so between the snow storm Sat nght, and Monday night it is unlikely it is broken out.

I'm happy to announce that this weekend I completed my first attempted 100 mile race, Rocky Racoon 100 Congrats! Great job down there!

Simply lovely! We've done the Sugarloaf's (or would that be loaves?) several times although never in winter. Need to change that before too long. Thanks for the great photos and TR. g

Have a few hikes onmy new Garmont Momentum Snow boots including a long trek to Owls Head breaking trail. Have to say they are great! Warm and very light weight. Great tread on the bottom. Lot's of toe room. I was at EMS today in Concord and saw they now have them back in stock - men's and women's!

If you are a stong hiker and don't mind a very long day it is doable in a single day. Several from VFTT have done so. FYI - I have a trip the first week in March with an opening if anybody is interested. 4 nights in BSP with 2 possbile summit days. Please email or PM directly for more info.

Put over 150 summits on my pair of MSR Lightning Ascents before a binding broke - sent the binding back to MSR and they shipped me a new one - no charge. FYI - they now have tails available for them - saw a pair at EMS this afternoon.
