    New York Highest 100

    Awesome.......... That's just the kind of info that I was talking about Mark.

    New York Highest 100

    Might have even done one or two already, you never know ;) I kinda knew to ask a pro (I generally do that anyway), but figured I'd throw it out there since this is a thread about online sources for info on these peaks. That would surely be helpful. Also, I generally love the peak identifier...

    New York Highest 100

    :cool: good threads never die, they just go into occasional 3 year slumbers :cool: Those are all interesting sites and worthy of a look. I'm curious though, are there any sites that not only list the peaks by name, but also indicate which peaks have "private property" issues. I know Alan's...

    How bad are the bears at Marcy Dam?

    I'll take this one on myself........ Not so bad this time of year. :D Just taking her for a test drive Darren. Thanks Darren, Peakbagr and Dave for all that you do. Pretty nice place you got going on here. THANKS AGAIN :cool:

    Phelps to Tabletop bushwack

    BRUTAL...... A guy I was on a difficult bushwack last year has done it and reports that it's some of the nastiest thick stuff he can recall. On a happy note, he reported little blowdown, but then again, he said it was so thick in spots, that the stuff doesn't even fall over, it just rots in...

    Proposal to have NY section of VFTT?

    Most have NOT left. Hell, even harryk {winked} at us from the Trail Conditions (sniping at me, I might add :cool: - It's okay, I still luv him). Some of us have drifted, but most are never too far afield. No matter what Darren does, Alan has touched me with his sincerity and his longing for...

    Proposal to have NY section of VFTT?

    and Peakbagr is one of my oldest and dearest hiking friends from here, and while we've not really discussed this situation in depth, these last two posts present a much more compelling argument for me. Much better (IMO) then his first post. I might add. The truth is, I see myself in this...

    Proposal to have NY section of VFTT?

    As one of the operators of the other boards (www.adkhighpeaks.com ), and a long time member here (since 2000 - pre crash ;) ), I recall we've been through this debate a couple times here, always deciding to stay within the current format. IIRC, I think that the general tone of this community was...

    Your favorite photos, 2006

    Darren, I knew you were in HI, but did not realize about the big leg troubles. Hope you heal well in the new year and I'm feeling bummed for you. I gotta tell ya though...... All those pictures of pork Luaus, the lovely Carmel and the positively aweful :rolleyes: view from the boathouse that...

    White Mountain Locator Map

    I'm sure you don't need me to tell you this Dave, as I'm sure you're already fully aware. When you put alot of stuff out there, particularly on the internet, people will all too often find ways to use/borrow/claim other peoples intellectual stuff. The higher quality it is, the more likely it is...

    Catskill Mountain Locator Map

    Not to Hijack Tom's thread, but Tom asked if he could use an similar map list I did earlier for his Catskill. I certainly didn't mind. Not sure I ever posted my original ADK100 map on here, so perhaps, with Tom's permission, I will. Now there are two "google" interactive Peak Locator maps...

    Creating views with a chainsaw

    :( Black Spruce...... I wish you hadn't. While Peak probably had a point on the "drifting from the Hale" topic. It is my opinion, that it is precisely the "medley of ideas" presented in thread like this that stimulate 2500+ views. By following along, many people begin to formulate their own...
