Is there anyone out there who does this or is interested in doing this? I used to do it back in the seventies, but the equipment has changed so much, as have I! I picked up telemark equipment last year and skied on it all last season and I feel I'm ready for the slides! I've got a couple more...

Neil, If memory serves me correctly, I believe the static portion of the dike is rated a 5.3 and the friction is a 5.4 but I've been wrong before! Ken

:D Sorry 'bout that, but I was kidnapped by a bunch of drunken hyenas and wasn't able to make my trip. They stole my radio and tried to contact Bubba. I tried to stop them but to no avail! Congrats to Bubba though!

Nope, not that far west! :confused: Throw a family radio in your pack & put it on channel 5 - 0, it will be worth your while! What I mean is, you'll wish you had if you summit prior to noon. I'll look for your flags! :D I'd love to join youse guys in LP but we're having a pig roast & jam...

Nye Wolf Pete, NYS has a cougar located in the Keene Valley area, maybe that's what killed the deer? Ken

Bon chance! Bubba, Good luck on Marshall, she's a beauty! And, if you summit before noon, look to the southwest and I'll wave to ya! Ken :D

Hi there, Would anyone have the GPS co-ordinates for the summit of MacNaughton? If so, I'd really love to have them, just in case! Thanx, Ken :)

Thanx Spence, as much as I hate wearing long pants hiking, I think you're right! :(

Yeah, I know what you mean; I smile & shake my head every time I hear or read the name MacNaughton. Must be my Scottish ancestry! ;)

Hey, Is anyone interested in doing Big Mac this Saturday, Sept. 2? This will be my third trip up. The first two attempts were from Indian Pass so I'll be travelling via Preston Ponds this time. I'll be staying at camp Friday night & heading out at day break on Saturday from the UW's trailhead...

Directions Hey Spence, I was checking out the directions you had given in your first thread with Mapquest and it appears to be about 4 1/2 miles from the N'way to the sharp turn. Is that right or is it one mile? I'd hate to drive all the way up there and not find it! I answered my own...

Cooking Corn 101 Hey MichaelJ, Too late, I'm bringing a bushel of corn as well! I beleive there are approximatly (4) dozen ears in a bushel. So, ~100 people/(2) bushels = ~(1) ear apiece. Spence, Could we remove a small section of sod in the field, cook the corn over charcoal, and then...

Slide Climb? Hey kdk1610, I'd be interested in climbing the Eagle or any slide for that matter on Saturday. When were you planning to go? Or, Sunday, we could solo the standard route on Chapel Pond? You made me change my mind! Let me know! Ken PS MichaelJ, If there's going to be that...

Bbq Thank You Bubba & Timmus! I'll be there with bells on & guitar in hand, Friday night. Haystack, Basin, & Saddleback sounds like a good start on Saturday if anyone is interrested. Hurricane sounds good for Sunday. But, this is only tentative, depending on how I survive the jam session! I...

Whadup! Hi there, Does anyone have a clue as to how many people will be @ the BBQ Saturday night and what everyone's bringing? I was thinking of bringing a salad or a desert? Is anyone in charge? If so, what would you prefer me to bring? I'm planning on arriving Friday night hopefully before...

Hey Spence, I haven't had time to read all the commentary as I'm heading North for the week. So, I figured I'd cut to the chase and ask if there will be room for one more person to camp @ you're place on the Friday & Saturday? Let me know! Thanx, Ken :confused:

Hi there, If anyone is interested, I'll be leaving This Saturday or Sunday morning, and hiking from the Upper Works through Duck Hole, then down the Cold River to Miller's Falls, where I'll spend the first night. Then continue down the CR to Plumley Point on Long Lake. And finally, on the third...

I'd heard that northern vt, nh, me had received over 10 feet of new snow the week prior to Christmas! Don't know about the rain the day after x mas, but a friend that had skied Gore on the 26th just told me they didn't get any rain up there. It sure rained in LGNY.

Hope Santa was good to everyone! I'm thinking of bailing out of work this Thursday & Friday & heading to my camp in Tahawus for a long weekend to do some back country skiing. I've just picked up some telemark equipment and was hoping that someone could point me in the direction of some of the...
