Great trip report, nasty sock photo, spectacular other photos. The views up there were amazing - someday I'll get back to Baxter in winter, but probably on skis.

The Chimney couloir is calling your name, Dave.

Suh-weet! Congrats on an amazing and beautiful trip, and to Marc on his finish. I'm so glad the weather cooperated for you, and so bummed to hear about 7Summits' feet. Perhaps it was a conspiracy to ensure sacrifice to the weather gods?

Congrat's to all, a lifetime of memories and to Lord Marc on completing WNEHH

Thanks sooo much for sharing!!!

Man, what crappy conditions you guys had! Bummer!

Marc, good work, dude, although I can't say that I'm surprised anymore

I've been putting off going to Baxter for a while now because I absolutely detest driving, but upon seeing how beautiful it is through your photos I'm very seriously reconsidering.

Try to hook up with one of those week-long trips up to Chimney one of these days... nothing like it in the NE. Go

Yes, as others have noted, a few days based in Chimney Pond is a must. You can rationalize the distance by dividing the total mileage by the total number of days in Baxter, which may turn out to be less than a one-day trip to the Whites.

Hui Yeng, Nice TR and pics as well! By the looks of those socks and booties your a pretty hardcore girl! Looks like you put the pain out of your head so you folks could get the mileage in on an awesome day. Also big congrats to Marc on the NEHH and everything else you've accomplished at the same time! Nice to toss back a few on the holiday with you. Excellent time you folks shared up there and glad you brought some of it back to us! Rock on!
