Howdy, I picked up the new edition of the Dayhikers guide to VT and it talks about the Dorset Ridge Trail. Has anyone done this? It says that it's poorly marked and does not give a distance. I plan on exploring in the hopes of trail running on it, it sounds really cool. I was on Green Peak...

Howdy folks, I was just wondering if anyone knows if the trail from Lincoln Gap North is snowy or if it is relatively dry. The weather looks good for the upcoming week and I'm kicking around the idea of running out to Lincoln Peak and back. Is the road up to the trail head still open or is it...

Yesterday we left a truck at the resort of Stratton and headed out to our starting point at Kendall Farm Road. The conditions were really good! Nice base with 3-4" of dust on top. We skinned the IP road and hooked up with the LT and skinned up, the condtions near the top were a little icy. At...

With the lack of snow in the area we set out for a nice afternoon hike on EQX. The conditions at the bottom were loose to packed rocks with a fresh coating of leaves. Just below the spring (right hand turn) it started to get ICY!! We had a go at it for about ten more minutes then decided to...

Howdy folks! Just wondering if there are any folks out there in the Manch area looking to get out and explore this winter. I just started telemarking 2 years ago so I still suck but love skiing uphill. Looking for some long day trips or overnights(depending on what my wife says). Willing to...

Howdy, has anyone utilized the cabin near Grout Pond during the winter months? It sounds really cool with the stove and fireplace. I'd like to do a section of the catamount trail and am just curious if it gets any slednecks that like to hang out there since the vast trail runs right near there...

Howdy Folks, Just wondering if anyone has stayed overnight in Cooper Lodge on Killington during the winter or this time of year. I was wondering if there's a mice issue etc. Thanks in advance!!

Went up Stratton yesterday trail it was relatively dry,a little muddy in some spots. We saw a black bear not too long after we crossed the old ip road. There was some patchy deep snow near the top gaitors were certainly helpful. If your going past the firetower to the ski area snowshoes are a...

Just curious on your thoughts on this mountain and routes people have taken. Any strange occurences? Thx. Greg

I went up Equinox(via blue trail) and Bromley(via 11/30 long trial parking lot) yesterday. Both trails were very dry and in good shape. No snow on Bromley until you get to the end of the trail were it meets the ski trail Runaround. Runaround still has snow but is hard pack no snowshoes or...

Howdy, Just wondering if there is anyone out there who's up for a run in the Southwest Vt. area. Looking to do some longer runs but the wife gets nervous about me going solo, and because the dog doesn't know how to dial 911. I've got a bunch of cool ideas so let me know. Greg Arlington VT

Went up Bromley this AM from parking lot off 11/30. VERY MUDDY, and sloppy!! Running gaitors at least recommended. No snow.:( Greg

Anyone up for a trail run?!!! I plan on trying for 20 miles. Parking at Mad Tom Notch in Peru and running the Peru Peak 10 mile spur loop. Refueling at the trail head and heading south to Bromley. Then down to the trail head at 11/30, then back up. Might not have time to do a full 20(see how...

Hi, Sorry if this isn't in the right forum. Just curious if there is anyone is the Southwestern Vt area interested in doing any climbing, epic hikes/backcountry adventures. The wife gets a little nervous when I go solo. Guitar playing a plus. Thanks. Greg

Howdy folks, Just a quick question. Does anyone have any idea of the average grade for the blue trail up EQX Mountain and distance. Thanks a bunch. Greg

Hi there, I was just wondering if there was a certain time frame in which you had to climb all the 4000 ft peaks of New England. Can you space it out over years? Thanks, Greg

I've been noticing and gazing at this star/planet in the southwest sky that glimmers these really cool colors. I just wondering if anyone knows what planet/star this is. Maybe aliens sending us a signal. Thanx. Greg.
