Craig and I are planning on going. Do you have enough room on the floor for us????? (Tenting in winter just isn't my idea of fun.)

I agree with Unfrozencaveman! You've been pretty nice to me, too ;) :D . I think brownies would be just perfect!

Steve: Sorry to hear that you are off the trails (at least for now). Hope your recovery goes well and that you are back hiking as soon as possible. Little Bear p.s. I tried to email you some pics from the BBQ gathering, but they bounced back. Do you have another email account I could try?

Craig and I have it marked on our calendar!

I have hiked to Isolation on three separate occasions, but my favorite way is via Glen Boulder Trail and Davis Path. I love the way you get above treeline very quickly and then get to enjoy the views for so long. The views from Isolation are some of the best in the Whites. I really like the...

Potash and Hedgehog were my very first winter snowshoe hikes. I have done them at least 6 times in winter - never in any other season. They are both great hikes, and easy enough that I have taken several "newbies" up them. I haven't been in a couple of years - time to make another trip.

F-16's will be flying out of Pease for the next 5 or 6 weeks. The runway in Burlington that they use is undergoing repair. Saw five of them takeoff this morning one right after another - probably less than 15 seconds inbetween. (As a reference, commercial airliners usually take off in 2...

Wish I could say that I was going on a 5-day backpack in Glacier National Park..... Nope - I'm gonna be the mother of the bride, so I have to do my motherly duties. :) :) (Which, by the way, I am really looking forward to!) I suppose I could go to the Gathering and then leave REALLY EARLY...

Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend Gathering 9.0 this year. I need to be in Maine on Sunday to visit a potential location for my daughter's wedding next September. Hope to see some of you in Acadia the end of October, though!

I'll say "FINALLY" when the trip report is posted and I know you really did it!!! :D :D :D Good luck! Would love to join you, but I need to be in NH on the 17th (actually in Maine, visiting a potential location for my daughter's wedding next September :) )!!!! I'm not even going to the...

Hmmm... just think of what Timmus could do to this :D !!

I'll be there (with Craig in tow - he has no IDEA what he is in for :eek: )! And I will be bringing chicken quesadillas (mild) and veggie quesadillas (HOT!). Not sure what we will be hiking - Craig is a newbie and hasn't hiked much. But we would love to join anyone on something relatively...

Mike: Thanks for sharing your hike with Aaron with all of us. Kids are great!!! I can't imagine my life without them. They are a lot of work, but the rewards are incredible. How lucky you are - and how lucky Aaron is to have you for his dad. So glad you had such a wonderful weekend for...

Even though it will be HOT this weekend, I figure that it will be cooler in the mountains than it will be a home! I try to pick hikes that aren't exposed, with more shade and with more streams. I also bring and drink more water, and I usually wet a bandanna to place around my neck, but have...

One real problem with ITBS is that if it is not treated promptly it can become nearly impossible to remedy. I experienced it several years ago while descending from Osceola. Took me an incredibly long time to get back to the car. Each step down brought excrutiating pain. I thought my hiking...

Although they never officially called it a "tornado" there was a storm that hit the Stratham area of NH back in the '90's (might have been the 80's, I'm not sure) that collapsed the pavillion at Stratham Hill, killing a couple of people (everyone had gathered under the pavillion for shelter...

My favorite GORP recipe is: regular M&M's peanut M&M's crunchy M&M's peanut butter M&M's honeynut cashews and regular cashews peanuts pistachios cinnamon coated raisins golden raisins craisins dried cherries dried blueberries dried currents YUMMY!

Happy Birthday to Yooooou Sherpa: Christmas on the 5th and now your birthday - all in one month. So glad that you are finally home. Looking forward to seeing you soon. While I know this isn't how you had envisioned your birthday this year, I am sure that just being home with family is one...
