Turn Around Due to Leaves I tried to go up to the South Taconic Range from the New York Side, but way south of the trail to Alander Cabin, more the latitude of Mt Frissell. Think of going up Owlhead on ice in sneakers--- had to turn around

What is the typical backpack solution for having to lug odd shaped things long distances...such as short 2x8's for bridge decking....flat stones that are far away from the maintenance area.. shovels and tools...etc....shingles for a lean-to?

Has anyone got their car towed from the Kanc?

Well, last year did not go as planned. I am having great luck with the other authorized Atlas repair center.... www.mountainsoles.com. They got back to me in an hour. The good news is that they can install new heel straps and they have inventory. The turn around time is 4-6 weeks, plus...

They are coming out in the suburbs of Concord NH, although not in high numbers yet. They just became slightly bothersome at the end of a six mile walk.

Nobody said masks would stop the spread completely. The problem is that there are enough people with a political agenda or lack of education or a lack of concern for others to not follow the mandates, and then attempt to justify their beliefs based on the consequences.

Plotting infection rate versus mask mandates is not science. I could plot number of pirate attacks versus degrees of global warming and pronounce a conclusion as well. Seriously, there are other factors involved such as fatigue from isolation, weather, the benefits of mucus from allergies and...

Maybe he does not have parts for Atlas 1225's but he got my photos and led me to believe I would have new straps in a week. I will call Atlas as and see if they can spare a strap. But if anyone is going to toss out a pair of Atlas 12XX pls pm me.

I would not use a canister stove in winter. Its my understanding that the mixture of hydrocarbons consists of stuff with big partial pressure constant differences and the good stuff is consumed more quickly than the stuff which doesnt work so well in the cold. Primus makes a combination stove...

There should be a mask surge. The UK strain is apparently associated with higher mortality, and I read one news article that vaccine is ineffective against the South African strain. The Moderna CEO says the virus will be endemic.

ChrisB- You were right. The guy ghosted me despite several texts. I let Atlas know because I was really convinced that the snowshoes would be all set by now.

So maybe i should put my 36 inch atlas shoes up on ebay? Great in deep snow, useless on a broken trail.too narrow for these huge shoes..

I think there is phone number in the link i posted. The place is unusual because it spans a state line.

Well I hope I have a better experience than you. Basically he is sending me 2 heel straps and nuts/screws/washers on trust that I will send him a $30 check upon receipt. He is listed as an Atlas ARC not sure about Tubbs. Of course there is another ARC listed for Atlas in Oregon.

K & D Tent & Awning 1131 Milwaukee Ave South Milwaukee, WI 53172-2012 414-764-8820 [email protected] Heres what worked best. Email him a clear photo of the problem. Include your phone number. Ask for quote. He will call you back and give advice and if possible ship parts. When drilling out...

The bench grinding method usually destroys the temper of the metal. So if you step on rocks they will wear down even more quickly.

http://www.ohranger.com/ma/bash-bish-falls Its in the middle of a ravine. Not sure how much snow they got there. Mt. Washington State park gets you access to the ridge and to the AT and to the Falls.

I have read that dry cleaning will destroy the feathers. Alsosome of these these higher fill vests may have ultralight thin shell material. It wont stand up to thorns or getting bashed often by pine branches.

Its good general advice but they have been closely inspected just like everything else. For instance, last night I found Nimh batteries with leaking seals. As an aside, I noticed some minor fraying on the deck fabric after a couple years of use and protected the areas with duct tape. It paid...

Expensive? Long Wait? Finally after 18 years the polymer heal strap on one of the shoes got brittle and cracked. Fortunate the strap stayed on but the retainer hook is on the very last hole of what is left of the strap..
