Next Thursday is fine with me. Got to pack too. I'll see you this weekend Meo. Arm, Mont Albert is a much nicer peak than Jacques-Cartier. Torngats would be nice but air fare is extremely pricy. Don't have a fire arm to keep polar bears away either. See you Sunday. :D

I think you are referring to Barnes Field.

The bar is walking distance from my place so if I have time tonight, I'll go to the bar to get GPS coordinates and will give you all the beta tomorrow morning. :D

Nathalie and I will be there around 6pm. I'll bring a VFTT sticker for id. See ya Thursday night.

Neil, I'm sorry I can't make it. I have to work this weekend. Looks like you got a good group lined up for your big finish. Have fun! :)

I voted for Other (Nov 18-19) but might be able to squeeze the October weekend.

Well, if Mr.X brings the lighter fluid, we can take care of that Yankee cap. :p I'm available for sure the weekend of Nov 19-20. For the Nov 12-13 weekend, Nathalie has the Friday off but she wanted to go on a 3-day backpack. I can feel a tumultuous negociation session coming up. :D

Great web site, Ed! What is the prerequesite in terms of technical skill level?

Count me in!

Is there going to be another bushwacking convention this year? :D :D :D Last year was a blast!

Needless to say this event is cancelled. Hope to have better luck/response next time.

Yes the main bridge is out but there is another one just a couple of hundred feet to the right. Rangers had no issue with people using the 2nd bridge and there were cars at the trailhead. So, no need to worry about the extra 3.6mi RT as previously reported. If you are heading for the Weekes...

I've torn my goretex pants a few times with crampons. I have fixed it cheap by sewing the tear and applying silicone on top. The stuff you use to seal the seams on a tent works perfect. Not pretty but effective.

We're more then overdue for another reunion of the peakbaggers north of the 45th parallel. Tentative date: Thursday, September 22nd around 6pm. Location: Boul Noir (this is not a typo)... 551 Mont-Royal east, Montreal It's a nice quiet pub/pool hall suited for stimulating conversation and...

If you are heading near Shenandoah Nat'l Park, I strongly recommand hiking Old Rag mountain. It's a strenuous loop of about 10mi. with some fun scrambling.

I bring my girlfriend on every hike. Bugs feast on her instead of me. :D Seriously, I don't know about Vicks but garlic pills have worked best for me.

Just got back from a week in BSP so I'll try to answer some of your questions: 2) Yes K is the only peak with hiker limit. 4) South Branch Pond campground. Beautiful setting. Right next to the Travelers loop. 6) Best route from South to North entrance is the one inside the park. Allow 2 hours...

Nothing is scarier than seeing Harryk skinny dipping at the end of a hike. :D

Another proud Element owner. Roomy enough to sleep 2 comfortably with the back seats up. Love it but I'm also hoping for a hybrid version.

How did I miss this thread? Audrey & Pat, congratulations from Nat and I on your big finish and welcome to the Club. Sorry we could be there.
