    Finding my way on Owl's Head, 9/24

    he he he...I remember discussing with my hiking partners on Saturday how "nice an out this would be..." I was met with "really...I'll as you that when we get back to this point this afternoon." Yup...I was really DONE when we got back there. Those cute little railroad ties were traps just...

    FINALLY, hubby had a full, two day weekend, the weather looked fine, the babysiter was all set...as was the dog sitter. After lots of advice from my fine VFTT buddies...we were off. We arrived Friday night, hiked into an off trail camp site and set up for the night. It was great...really...

    Double Hit & Run, Old Spec and Baldpate, 9/18/2010

    Awesome trip report and pics... We did baldpate THREE times before we got both peaks...actually, took us two to just get the 1st one...then two more to get the 2nd one...I guess that's what happens when you hike in the winter...and don't have crampons:D

So...for the approach from the Kanc...I've just heard (in passing from talking to other hikers) that this is a pretty boring hike...with NO views...This weekend is supposed to be really nice so really want to do something WITH...

    "Pierceing" Blue Skies on Pierce 9/11

    Oh MY GAWD!! How adorable!!! Pierce is a really nice summit...and a great hike!! I have heard that you should wait a year before starting a pup on hiking...guess not? Or is it breed dependent?

    Eagle Pass, Greenleaf Hut, Lafayette, Monkey Trunks pics and vid

    That looked like a GREAT HIKE!!! Interesting what that trail and the surroundings actually LOOK like...we were pretty much socked in when we did it. GREAT trip!

    Tripyramid slide loop...trailhead "accomidations"

    Hi all getting time to try and tick off the tripyramids...want to do the slide loop to at least have something interesting associated with these two peaks (I've heard they, in and of themselves aren't much)... As you know, we come from Maine...and, in my estimates...it will take about 3.5 - 4...

    Solar Chargers

    Interesting...that's what the guy at LLBean thought...don't leave it on all the time (which I did). BUT!! one of the reasons I purchased it is for the STATS that it gives...odometer, time in motion, average MPH, altitude gained, etc. There are lots of neat stats that this unit will give...

    Guyot Shelter?

    Man...you all are going to be REALY happy when I actually DO complete the 48s!! I tried to see about reserving at either Sugarloaf or the Zealand Campsite for Fri night...all three are "walk in only" if less than 7 days reserve. As we are not going to be there until (probably) after...
