HI all...been out of hiking for a while and really looking forward to getting back at it. We are FINALLY gonna be able to do some hiking this weekend...and will be bringing a friend who "loves" to hike but hasn't ever really done anything in the Presis...we wanna take him to washington...show...

All I can say is "Wow"...and people wonder WHY would you want to go up just to have to go back down. Some people just don't/won't get it...

Hi all Been wanting to do Caps Ridge for some time...and now that Jefferson Notch road is opened again...would like to shoot for Sunday Any ideas how that trail faired after Irene? Thanks.

Ok...sounds like a GREAT HIKE!!! And I'll watch for that sign when heading off the summit...we're doing that awesome sounding loop that SHOULD get us back to the piper trailhead. Now...how to FIND that trailhead. The book isn't really clear. Is it RIGHT OFF Rte 16...or off of a side road off...

GREAT INFO!!! Thanks! Actually, that loop was what we were looking at doing...now, we know it's a good one! And, as for time...he he...we are early birds. We usually get UP by 2 am to get to the trailhead by 6 am...looks like about 5 miles to the summit...puts us there around 10 - 1030ish...

Hi there... Hoping to do Chocorua on Saturday...should be a georgeous day... Thinking Up Piper trail and down...um...the other side (can't remember the trail names but I think one is Liberty...) back to the pipe trail for a loop. Seems the piper trail is fine for up...but, what about the...

Not coming across JNR...just rte 2 to Bowman... Any issues with the lower Castle Ridge, Lowes, or Isreal Ridge? Or any watercrossings on the trail?

Updates? Hi there... Been off the forum for a while and there are a LOT of posts about hurracaine dammage to review...but... getting ready to hike Jefferson on Saturday...probably Castellated ridge and down Lowes or Isreal Ridge... Anything I should know...road (we come in Rte 2 from maine)...

We are gonna be doing Adams/Madison via applacia, kings ravine headwall (what's CCW) and were going to head down the Watson Path... How do you get back to applacia from Howker's ridge...and about how LONG is this trek?

Hi all... Heard this weekend about a new "connector" trail on Saddleback (maine) that would be for hikers, snowmobilers, etc. Any further info out there...like, with a map? I googled it...found lots of articles...but not much info I could use to actually hike it... Thanks for the info.

I think its a shame...it was such a neat thing to see from W. Peak and the Horn...especially when thinking about the history... Anyway... Hoping to hike there SOON...any trail conditions? Or...is the road opened yet?

Cool...that was the plan...drop off the kidos at mom's on Fri after work...drive (3 hrs I think) to our destination...and not come home till Sunday night! Any suggestions on hotels? Or just the typical Holiday Inn, Super 8 type thing?

Hi all Heading to Strathum, NH on April 9th for the AWARDS DINNER!! Looking for lodging in the area. Went online...but, don't need anything fancy, just clean, a fridge, cable (we don't have this at home...it's fun to get when we DO go out), and maybe a microwave. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hubby and I were hiking the Kinsman on Sunday too...we were wondering if anyone was on Franconia...now we know :)

Ok...so, if we chicken out of Lincoln and LaFayette on Sunday (if too cold and/or windy...that's a LONG ridge walk :)) we were thinking about doing the cannon balls. What are the chances of the trail being broken out/followable right now...NOT taking the fishin Jimmy and going left but heading...

Hi all Gonna be in NH for the New Years...and just CAN'T be there without hiking SOMETHING on Sunday. What are some suggestions for a smaller hike in the Gorham/Randolph area for Sunday...now that we're members of the great 4k-er's club...something on the 100 highest list would be nice Thanks...

wow...quite the snow on Lakes of the Couds! MUCH more than we saw when we were there last Saturday!

And to all...a GOOD night

We did Monroe, Eisenhower, and Pierce on Sat...cloudy and not much to see until we hit Monroe...the, the sky graced us with blue, sun and AWESOME clouds...when we hit Pierce...the clouds and snow came back. it was an AWESOME DAY TO HIKE!!

Way cool!!! Thanks for sharing
