Hello again Ed, Nathalie and I are also heading that way on Saturday. We'll leave early from Montreal so if we are not there for 8am, we'll catch up on the trail.

Harry.... Around 7pm.

Well, my girlfriend is sick and is not coming so now we have an opening at the condo in Lake Placid. Jeffrey or Louis if you are interested, let me know and we can work something out. Harry, since I'm by myself for the drive. Do you want me to pick you up in Huntingdon?

Louis, You can stay at the Jack Rabbit motel on route 73. It's close to the LOJ and should cost you around $60. A samedi! Ed, We'll see ya on the trails. Stay warm.

Looks like Portsmouth will be the place. Thanks all for the information. Albee, the FTFC is the AMC's Four Thousand Footer Club and they hold their annual meeting every April. There's a pizza dinner and then a presentation of awards for the people who completed one or all of the following...

I know, I know...I'm early but I'm starting to make plans for the FTFC banquet in April and could not help but notice by checking the maps that Stratham seems to be a fairly small town (not that there's anything wrong with that). For the people who attend these events, where do you typically...

Alain, I'm afraid my best impression of Junior will not come even close to the real thing. Thanks for breaking the trail for us. :) ....and don't forget to wear your snowshoes. we don't want to see no postholing on the trail. ;) ;)

Ed, we'll aim for 6am at the LOJ. Louis, We are all sleeping near the trail. Ed is at the LOJ and the rest of us will be in Lake Placid. If you can make it, look for an orange Element in the parking lot.

Well, it's 17 miles (excluding Marcy) so I would suggest leaving no later then 7am. How about 6am? Harry, you forgot to include Tabletop and Phelps on the way out. ;) Remind me to buy a stuffed rabbit to carry along and I'll do my Pinpin impression. :D :D

The storm past right by Montreal. We barely got 1 angstrom. :D

At least 4 for us (Nathalie, Tom Rankin, Harryk and myself) are aiming for these peaks on Saturday. We will be doing this has a dayhike and we haven't decided on a starting time yet. Will keep you posted.

Very interesting site! Great job! Thanks for sharing PB! The Torngats are definitely on my wish list too. I've done the Groulx Mountains range in northern Quebec in 2003 and that really got me interested in exploring the peakbagging further north.

Change in policy It is no longer Tubbs policy to accomodate customer request to change bindings model. I have a pair of Mountain 25 that I just sent for repair last week with a broken RCS binding. I asked them if they could replace with the TD91 instead and they refused. :(

From what I heard, the guy fell 300 feet down the Trap Dike. One of his boot was found planted on a tree with his crampon still on. He lost his backpack in the fall and it was not found. He survived and apparently did not even break a single bone.

My girlfriend and I spent 10 days in GNP in August last year and it was a memorable experience despite the fact that half the park was closed due to forest fires. The scenery is spectacular and the hiking options are almost endless. If you are interested in backpacking I would recommand reading...

PB, Yes, you are right about Saddle and Marble. I was going from memory. Should have done my homework. :rolleyes:

My guess for mystery mountain #2 is Salmon Mountain and in the background you have the 3 peaks of Mont Mégantic park (Mégantic, St-Joseph and Victoria).

Not to mention that you will stay away from the Molson XXX this time... :) :D

Méo, I have strained my ankle grade 2 once before and Nat also had a grade 2 knee strain last year. The secret for a full recovery is to take it gradually. I think you will have no problem making your late December trip if you give your ankle 3-4 weeks of complete rest and then start testing...

...and if he sends his application form to FTFC now he might get his batch before he's up for re-election. Sorry, I couldn't resist. :rolleyes:
