Thanks Pete. It is great to have you on VFTT. Mark

Hi Mohamed, Wright is a nice climb but I like it in the winter, so I think I am with bigmoose on this. Giant. Mark

rico, That was one hell of a DAY TRIP!!! How are you and Kevin feeling now? The little hills at the end of a hike are killers. Mark

Hi, You can go to RET and they have a few dried foods that you add cold water or no water; they are mostly cereals or desserts. Ah eating desserts for every meal!!! You could also bring your own favorite cereal and some powdered milk, just add water. Mark

Thanks guys. I climb Colden from Lake Arnold and did the pas on the way back to the Loj. I was with two others that are not good descenders and it was a long trip down the south side of Colden but the pass is worth the effort!!! Mark

Hi, I assume this new DEC regulation will include the winter. Pete? Mark

Hi to all, I am planning a day hike Loj, Lake Arnold, Colden and Avalanche Pass this Sunday. I would like to know what would be the better order. Should I do the Pass first or last? Thanks for the suggestions. Have a good weekend. Mark

rico, I agree with your social commentary!!! I never need a 6 day supply of food so to carry a large container would be a lot of wasted space and weight for a one or 2 night trip. Does anyone make a smaller unit or do they need to be that big so bears can not get their mouth around it? Mark

Brag all you want. Congratulations to you and your wife. Will you be getting the baby snowshoes for Christmas? Mark

Could it be that they drove for better weed!!!

Pat, I loved the report!!! Congratulations to you and your sons. We look forward to your report about Colleen finishing her 46. Mark

I am a real chatterbox, even more so on solo hikes!! If I am hiking with my young partners (18 and 19) I do not have the energy to speak. Mark

rico, Great report!! What time did you leave the Garden and what time did you get back to your car? I think we would all love to see photos if you have more. Mark

Thanks, it was just going to be a side trip to check it out not in shape to do the climb. Will let you know it I have any luck. Mark

Is anyone working on their winter Forty - Sexer? Mark

Hi all, I plan on hiking into Wanika Falls this weekend. I would also like to take a side trip and check out the “new” (1983) slide on Nye. Is there a well defined path from the NP trail to the slide? Is there any marking at the start of the path? Can anyone give me a good description of...

Take some photos and put them on the net. But than again they will most likely be into that as well.

Mohamed, Have a good time in Vermont this weekend and we will be looking for your report Sunday or Monday. Mark

Hi Shadowcat, Sorry I did not get back to you sooner but I did not check my email over the weekend. The two places I stay for about $50 a night are: The Woodruff motel in Keene, 518-576-4551 and the Cobble Mountain Lodge in Lake Placid, 518-523-2040 (I think they just raised their rate to...

I do not know what it is, but something just pulls me. I know I feel much better after a hike, I treat people I know a little nicer. But I do not think about these things until the hike is over. I just go up and hike. Mark
