BSP - Chimney Pond - 3.9-13.06

[spencer]

Well, none of us got around to writing up a formal trip report, but Al was good enough to put together some of his thoughts about it on
ROT (I couldn't get a direct reference to post #7 on that page so you have to scroll down a bit) and I put up our aggregate photo collection.

It was an incredible trip with a great group of people and perhaps the other trip members will pipe in with some comments...

Very cool photos. I never get tired of looking at pics of Katahdin... winter pics are even better. My boss has visited Baxter the last two winters and is thinking of planning a trip next year for a few of us in the office... keeping my fingers crossed!

Again, nice pics and a very nice report from TramperAl.

awesome pix - I wish I didn't have to cancel on that trip - it looks like you guys had a sweet time. I just officially had that sinking feeling in my stomach about what I missed out on

Just to clarify, I didn't take all of those pictures. It's a collection of pictures from all of our cameras on the trip.

Everyone took some great pictures and I don't want to mistakenly get the credit for them...

thanks for the comments, everyone! We didn't get much response elsewhere so we thought we'd share it here.

Those are some wonderful photo's. Looks like you guys had wonderful weather too. Did you split up some nights camping and some nights in the cabins. What was the itinerary?

Please let me believe that one day I will be part of a Katahdin winter trip, just like this one...

At first glance I missed the link of your baxter trip on New England High Points. Read it now. Great report. Well done.

I love Baxter!!!

I was looking to forward to a trip like this, but found out that work was going to send me to Las Vegas.

Vegas is ok (except for the miles of slot machines and booming music), but boy did I miss out!

Same applies for management of Baxter State Park, right?? Just kidding! Katahdin rules!!
