I enjoyed the eclipse with the fam here in midcoast Maine. Took a bunch of afocal photos through my telescope. Here's one...

Bald Mountain in Weld is a great winter hike with a parking area on the side of RT 156. It's short, steep, and very open/exposed on top. Great views of Tumbledown, Mount Blue and the entire Webb Lake basin.

You are welcome! The Moosehead Pinnacle Pursuit was started last year so I was certain that all of their published info was current. Enjoy Whitecap!

I think this describes the current best approach to Whitecap... https://mooseheadpinnaclepursuit.com/whitecap-mountain/ I know several people who have been in this way.

I have several "favorites"...Little Jackson, Saddleback/The Horn, Abraham, anything in BSP. I'm quite fond of both Madison and Adams in NH. If I had to pick one though, it would probably be Bigelow Mountain. There are several varied approaches to a number of summits along the long ridge, not...

Her friendly demeanor and her support of people she meets have nothing to do with the topic. Routinely targeted in mean spirited ways? That's unfortunate but I've never heard of her until now and I'm certainly not being mean spirited for the sake of it. I posted an unbiased opinion based on...

Hmm... While I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt, her website says that the dog is a certified therapy and emotional support animal and that she is a mental health clinician. It doesn't require much brain power to reach the conclusion that the dog is likely used FOR her profession...

There have been two previous hearings. A small meeting with Millinocket officials in which most spoke against... which contrary to your comment on daytime forums, was held during the day. The larger forum held in Orono (later that evening I might add), in which around 1500 people attended, was...

http://www.pressherald.com/2016/04/27/maine-voices-national-monument-proposal-a-historic-opportunity-for-katahdin-region/ Contrary to what has been previously inferred, there is quite a bit of local support for some sort of park/monument. Given that the current proposal amounts to a minuscule...

Some new trails are being built in the Moosehead Lake area for folks who may be interested. Sounds like the start of several new non-motorized trails up that way. http://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/MEDACF/bulletins/c1a159

Nice pics and report! I've been up to Peak of the Ridges once and turned back due to horrible weather. The full loop is very high on my to do list. Kevin

One of my favorite places. I visit this area at least once every year. Nice photos!

Those undercast shots are very nice! This is an area I hope to get to this year.
