For our second trip of this fall season, we decided on the Santanoni Range. The weather was great and the trail conditions were as expected, muddy. However I am sure they were improved since earlier in the season. There were only a few sections that really required careful navigation, the col...

Had a great time hiking Donaldson, Emmons, Seward, and Seymour this weekend. I went with my son who is my primary hiking partner and is committed to helping me complete the 46ers quest. I've detailed our entire adventure with photos on my hiking journal website here -...

Hello all, so I am finally back to pursuing my remaining peaks to complete the 46er's, and I am already looking at the calendar for a couple of challenging adventures I have ahead of me, namely all four of the Seward range and the 3 peaks in the Santanoni range. I'm looking at labor day weekend...

Well, we had a successful trip last Thursday, the weather was awesome. It was great to get out again. Thanks again for the advice to ascend rather than descend the Macomb slide. Now that I have been there, I can certainly appreciate it. Check out my trip report here -...

Hello all, it's been way too long since I have hiked in earnest, but now that my son and former hiking partner has completed his education, he's agreed to go with me again. Man that was a long 7 years! I'm looking forward to doing some peak-bagging this fall and I've got the 4 lesser Dix peaks...

Hello all, been a while since I've been on the site. With the exception of Poke-O-Moonshine a few weeks ago, haven't hiked since Colden last September. I'm Dying to get back in shape and back on the trail. I'll be doing Hadley on Saturday, most likely with bgk and the Mountain Goat at least...

Does anyone know when the Shuttle from Marcy field starts running? Also, do you think the Garden will be full this Saturday? Silly question probably.

Originally thought about Street & Nye, but thought the creek might be too high.Went with bgk, djhiker and a non-forum member. Started at the St. Huberts lot at about 7:45 am, saw that Pete hickey signed in to do Sawteeth, how was it Pete? We barebooted down the Lake Road and for a while after...

Will most likely be doing these peaks this Saturday. Would like to meet any of you who may be looking for a hike to do. PM or e-mail me if you think you're interested

Anyone have any suggestions for a cabin rental in the Adirondacks, preferably near water. Nothing fancy, woodstove would be nice, should be able to fit 10-12 with sleeping bags.

I know it's last minute, but I'm heading up to the Dacks on Sunday looking to bag Algonquin. Can't resist the weather forecast and I NEED to get out bad. Want to be at the trailhead by 7am. Planning on doing Algonquin only. Will be taking my time as well. Going solo so far. There are some others...
