WOW. Wondered what you were up to this winter since you had not posted.

COngrats Marc.

I am going to try a paddle the next weekend or two to see how the hand will handle a paddle. Hopefully, those days in april will be available for me to take leave. I think half the clinic is gone in april :mad:

Hmm midweek would work. I already have 2 weekend in April accounted for.

i should try my cycling tops for hiking. I wear them all the time when running. the pockets are a great place to stash keys and stuff hat and gloves when i start to get too warm.

do you have dates set yet dave? if someone could help me portage, i could be inteested.

I can sympathize about the pants. It happens to me too. I am short 5"3" and find that tops are just too short and do not stay tucked in. I can't imagine what its like for a tall female.

I'm not impressed with my Lekis. Collapsed all the time until I ran over them with the car....

It was a great hike and it was nice chatting with old friends and meeting new friends.

Interesting that the guides dispense diamox. I wonder if the hikers sign a waiver for this. I would worry about somoene having an allergic reaction to the medication. Anaphylactic shock up high could be difficult to deal with

I would look into some of the Penna state parks if you want to stay north of Camden (you could run around Cooper River Park) and south of the catskills. Depending on how far west in PA you are willing to go, there are some nice trails in central PA. The Black Forest Trail is a nice multi day...

What are you looking for in a hike? Are you going to be staying in Phila for the entire week or are you able to stay elsewhere the first few days? In Philadelphia itself, you can hike the Wissahickon Gorge; about 6 miles. You can call Friends of the Wissahickon 215-247-0417 to get a map...

Seema, you are being a concerned friend not a mother hen. I remember a few years ago I did an winter overnight in the ADK's with 3 other people. It did not even involve a peak. Well, one of the women did not have the right gear, sleeping bag, pad etc, for a very cold overnight. It went well...

Thats the recommended daily requirements. You need to remember too much potassium is bad too

In New Jersey, 3 companies are looking at developing ocean wind farms that would be located between atlantic City and Cape May. They would provide 1100 megawatts of power if all of them are built. The DEP has already spent 2 years and alot of money studying migration patterns of brds and fish...

About two years ago i stopped recommending NSAIDS to my patients for acute injuries for that reason. I still have been saying ice for the first 24-48 hours. May need to rethink that

send me a PM or give me a call. I think will be around all tgiving weekend

Well the Hospital for Special Surgery has a good rep in the musculoskeletal field

There are pictures on facebook

When I first stumbled onto the forums I went to several gatherings. I went to meet folks so I would not have to hike alone any more. Spencers spinoff ADK summer gathering was my first. I've attended 4 or 5 of these gatherings. I was also at the Barnes Field winter gathering (still have my...
