    Footwear of Hut Crews

    Climb High, of course. I can't recall his name either. Not to take this thread in another direction, but who'd you work for? There was a lot to like about being a sales rep, but in the end I was sick and tired of traveling, holding people's hands, and then have all the aforementioned changes...

    Mt. Greylock

    I have so many memories and stories of hiking and camping there. I'm 72 (today) but in my day: hiked from the south gate to the summit and skied down. Camped on the summit in late March one year, froze our tails off. Painfully post-holed the last mile to the summit one mostly snow-less winter at...
