My son gave me the WODC Sandwich Range map. Boy! That is a beautiful map! Thanks Sam

socks, and raised relief maps of Maine, and NH/VT to put pins in to keep track of where I go.
Got a lot of functional, "mature" (read: boring but good to have) presents. However, a few people really came through. My younger brothers got me a set of Metolius rock ring training holds and my and and uncle got me my first ever pair of climbing shoes, Red Chili Spirits. I'm pumped.
No 'poons...?
(USPS sez they were delivered on Xmas Eve...maybe the fat man in the red suit needed a little extra traction for the rest of his rounds and boosted 'em? Lemme know.)
I scored pretty well...
From my brother: two 24" snow pickets
From my father: TNF Base Camp duffel bag
From my son: a new Nalgene bottle (replacing the one he lost at baseball practice this summer)
From my daughter: heavyweight Smartwool sox
From SWMBO: BD ice screw (Chip, there's a joke in there for you somewhere about her wanting me to use protection )
From Santa: a stocking full of Gu, Clif Bars, handwarmers and the like
HO-HO-HO, Rainier here I come!
From SWMBO: BD ice screw (Chip, there's a joke in there for you somewhere about her wanting me to use protection).
I got:
"Adirondack Trails with Tales"
Historic hikes through the Adirondack Park and the Lake George, Lake Champlain & Mohawk Vally Regions
by Dunn & Delaney
I need some bad pun assists from Paradox on this one also...
Awesome book Rickie - I plan to knock off some of those next year. I'm particularly interested in the Valcour Island kayak/hike.
Christmas is a really stressful holiday and can be a huge pain in the rear, but it does have some a few redeeming qualities. Namely presents.
One evening while gliding around under the floodlights in 8 degree temps, my 3 y/o daughter grabbed my leg in a big bear-hug and said "This is the BEST Christmas EVER!" That was better than any present anyone could have given me.
