incredible - nice job!

reminds me of the time I was in Eastern Colorado hiking on the prairie - 50-60 mph winds and no shelter anywhere - well, when I went to relieve myself I ended up totally soaked - I just wished there was some one I could have called to come and change my clothes for me - hell - I even wished i...

Sorry you missed all of the flowers! Wow - great shots!

It is hard to tell small falcons and some hawks apart without seeing their wings spread...good guess...could also be a coopers or sharp shinned hawk - they are known to frequent backyards and eat song birds

...and I beleive the WMG says that the Buttress is one of the more "moderate" trails in the area...I am losing faith in some of that book - I think the Webster Cliff Trail desc is very inaccurate... Parapet is easier from MG to the hut (Only part I have done) - the other section is tougher...as...

Great hike for the little ones - my oldest climbed up north when he was three - I carried him down! Nice report!

Pat and Audrey - so sorry to hear this - Genie was one of the nicest dogs I had ever had the pleasure of meeting - or hiking with. She will be missed. Take care Mike

there should be a mix of all things...some mega remote stuff, some stuff "everyone can do" - some easy, some hard - some trailed - some bushwhack... This is kind of how it is really - there are plenty of places to go in the Whites - it is not all the Presis and Franconia Ridge...early start -...

Glad you made it ok - more adventure than I need...not a good place to be in an electrical storm (Edmands)...

OK - so Chip and me are the only two hikers who have ever had a bad trip? :D

Here we go... OK - this thread has my name written all over it...the one common theme in these trips is - LARRYD was with me :D These were all trips that made me say "what the hell do I do this for? this is supposed to be fun..." But soon after the aches go away they all become good...

Now I am really depressed - wow - magnificent stuff - looks like a great day - really wished I made this one.

you really should use statistical data, charts and meters when you are making bold claims about windspeeds Larry - you should know better. ;)

Congrats!!!

If people could here what our group discusses while hiking they would be longing for the purity of naked hikers...:D

A friend of mine asked me if anyone still makes boots with studs in them - he had them years ago - cannot remember the brand. Does anyone make them? Who used to? I know a lot of people here make their own.

Pembrokshire Coast Path in Wales John Muir Trail All of BSP (redline) All of the WMG (redline) Dolomites Iceland Alaska Base of the Grand Canyon Canyon de Chelly (New Mexico) - been here, but really want to explore it - and ditto for the Guadalupe Mountains in TX... Got to be a 1000 other...

Not while hiking - but in the woods at the height of land on Pinkham B - mother and a cub - and I saw a small bear cross I-93 at dusk just north of the Kanc... Seen many tracks - some of the more memorable ones were along the lesser used RMC trails - Monoway, Cliffway, etc...

I think I am going to have to rethink my hiking partners if any of them move towards this weight saving idea :D

Very nice report and a fitting tribute. Sorry I had to miss this one - real glad to hear that Genie is found and OK!
