i was swimming in lake sebago that day, no one told us the water was iffy? the geese droppings in that lake are really fouling it up, there are beaver and a otter that hang out there. i am up there a lot this time a year , at the aca camp

i was told that a simple self test to check for dehydration was to pinch the skin at the back of the wrist, if it stay pinched that means your dehydrated. it is supposed to also work in winter, actually it was during winter hiking, so not sure if it works in summer. can anyone verify this...

good luck and keep us informed. i also had neuromas removed from one foot, 2 neuromas were were done at once , toes 3/4 4/5 i had that lump feeling for awhile but it went away , it has been years, but i actually forget i had the surgery until i have to fill out forms and such. it was so...

magnesium is good but beware it is also a laxative, the dose of 1 philips milk of mag tablets = 500 mg the adult dosage is usually 2 tabs

there was really warm weather too during this time frame

ok i have to ask, how did this avalanche cause a flash flood at lake colden? avalanche lake is frozen still ? was the force that strong that it pushed the ice down and caused the water underneath to overflow onto lake colden? kinda like stepping on a plastic water bottle. is lake colden also...

i had two Morton neuromas removes from one foot a bunch of years ago. it got to the point where i couldn't even walk . anything compressing your toes will aggravate it. Birkenstock is the only hiking boot i have found with a real wide toe box

did something freeze and burst in your trunk?

if you have to walk out on a lower leg injury, your going to wish you packed your leftover narcotic painkillers.
