    Hiker Dies on Haystack Mtn.

    It's always difficult when you hear of these tragedies. It's even more difficult when it's so close to home knowing Ray was part of Views. My prayers go out to Ray, his family, and his hiking family.

    Where can I buy Stabilicers?

    I was at REI in Reading the other day looking for replacement screws (they didn't have them) but they did have the Stabilicer model you are looking for. They only come in sm, med, lrg, and xl vs shoe sizes. BTW Campmor is based out of NJ so no fee to the gov for on-line purchase but shipping...

    Conditions to Mount Hale?

    Hi Christine!! We went by the trail on Saturday on the way out from Z Hut and it wasn't broken (Lend a Hand either) However, there were 2 groups on their way in that were heading there and both were expecting to break the trail. I haven't seen any reports if they made it though. By the way, the...

    Is shooting them and finding a new hiking buddy an option? ;)

    how do i put replacement screws in stablilicers???

    I lost 2 screws earlier this year on mine. Had no luck getting replacements at EMS or REI (I could order them and wait), but ended up getting a bag of 50 from Campmor for $3.99. Of course I had to order some other things too just to justify the shipping (6 bucks I think) but you can always find...

    Zealand Trail?

    Hey Christine, It's fine from the road to the hut. Couple of muddy spots but they're easy to get around. Water levels are fine too. Twinway is it's usual muddy mess (if you're continuing on). Good luck! Bill

    Mt. Cabot for Final NH 48!!!

    Congrats Ray! and I too look forward to meeting in April. I just did Cabot 3 weeks ago for # 46. Too bad I didn't change it and we could have had a double celebration this past Saturday. All the best on a great personal accomplishment Bill

    Mt Hale 11/18/06 and #48!!!

    The summit may be the goal but it’s the people you meet along your journey that make each trip unique each and of itself. We started out from my house about 6:30 AM. I was so excited about this one that I was surprised I had slept at all the night before. Usually an early morning start means...

    Parking Fee in WMNF - Is it Being Enforced?

    Hi Kev, I received a "reminder" on my car that I owed $3 on our recent Carter Dome trip while parked at 19 Mile Brook. I forgot that I brought my other car. Went to the Ranger station and bought a new sticker for $20 and they told me I didn't owe the $3 now. The breakdown to $1.66 per month...

    Yosemite

    Great ideas! Just check with the park service to see if Half Dome is opened full time yet. They were suppose to be done with trail work that had closed the summit to all but a few hours each day. Also, check along Tioga Road as there are some great places to hang out.,...Tanaya Lake, Tuolomne...

    Attendance plummets at Baxter...

    I agree with PI on this one. Blaming the decline on TV and internet just seems absurd. We'd see the same % of decrease across the nation in all parks if that was the case I also noticed in the article that "Unique management rules prohibit officials from promoting the park to help increase...
