Dry to about midpoint on Calkins Brook herd path. Semi wet to the ridge. Muddy between peaks on the ridge. One can fly on the Calkins Brook herd path, it's in fantastic shape. Went up and back on Calkins Brook. Car to car for me was 7.5 hours.

The Colorado Centennials are the highest 100 peaks in Colorado. Fletcher Mountain (13,951) is ranked 60th on that list. For anyone interested, brief trip report and pictures of a quick solo excursion out there, as well as getting to see the beautiful Tenmile range just outside of...

I grew up in Vermont, and spending most of my time through my mid-20's climbing all over the Adirondacks and New England (and used this site through a chunk of that time). A few years ago (after a couple year layover in Dallas, Texas) I moved out to Denver to continue my pursuit of pushing...

Date of Hike: 7/5/2014 Trail Conditions: Trail from Mt. Washington road is wet for the first few hundred yards (as in, wading through 6-7 inches of running water). Dry up to the summit of Round Mountain and over to Frissell summit. Highpoint of CT is just off the South side of Frissell...

Download Here I've built a free android app for anyone wanting to track their list progress, climbs and logs available for most android devices. You can download it from the app store. It currently is tracking over 100 lists - and I plan to add a lot of features going forward, so would love...

After recently relocating from Burlington VT to Dallas TX, and going through 3 months of mountain withdrawal, I finally had the chance to get a hike in. (Dallas is pretty um...flat). My Uncle Dave (46er #1247) was in the area for business, and since he is casually working on the state high...

Pictures and all that good stuff at: http://www.forthoseabouttorock.net/climb/adk/RedfieldCliff/RedfieldCliff.html Little late start than what I was hoping, I reached the Upper Works parking lot at 7:45 and was on the trail at a little after 8:00. Only one other person had signed in for the...

Full trip report at: http://www.forthoseabouttorock.net/climb/adk/santanoni/santanoni.html Couple notes: Zero bugs, amazing weather. Mud is in great shape on the herd paths, Panther brook is just a drizzle, so rock hopping was easy. However, the trail to Bradley Pond - The upper part of this...

Having just done the Dix Range yesterday, I again had my father scan and email me some more older pictures, this time of the Macomb Slide when he climbed it in 1974...obviously I was expecting some differences, but not like this. Is the same slide that is climbed today, the same that was...

I was going to Dial/Nippletop today...but after seeing the weather forcast for Sunday, I changed plans to solo the Dix Range. I woke up in Burlington VT around 4:30, packed up my stuff and hit the Charlotte/Essex ferry at 6AM. It was already almost completely clear looking accross the lake...

As my dad closes in on the NE 115 (Currently 114/115), and being unable to hike for a few weeks, I finally convinced him to scan in his ADK canister pictures from 1972-1975. Hopefully some of you old schoolers find it as interesting to look at as I do - good stuff! If anyone is interested in a...

I left my apartment in Burlington, VT around 5AM on a mission to hit Skylight, Gray and Marcy today. I had previously done Marcy when I was younger in 1991 (I was 11), and unfortunatly was socked in a freaken monsoon at the time so saw nothing from the summit. My father grew up in the...

Planning on bushwacking Cold Hollows Mountain in VT on Friday (6/30). Anyone doing the 3k's or the NEFF interesting in joining in, drop me a line!

6/18/2006 Do you like lots of sun and zero tree cover? Hike Saddleback and The Horn on a 90-95 degree day up the Ski Trails. Thank god for 15 bottles of Gatorade, Powerbars, PB&J and sunblock (Although today it doesn’t look like I put any on). All in all, it was a beautiful day to hike. I...

I recently(yesterday) did Dorset peak in Vermont with my father. It was his second time on the mountain, he previously did it in 1983, however he doesn't remember actually going to the North peak back then. (Granted, it was 23 years ago, but hey.) Does anyone know if there ever a time where...

Hiked up Phelps this weekend, and noticed a couple things about it: The Phelps Mountain trail is so eroded in places, it's almost sad. Some tree roots have about 2 feet of clearance between them and the ground. I havent been to the ADK's in a few years, and have yet to really start pounding...

What was supposed to be a Mendon/Killington/Pico trip on Saturday turned into a Mendon only trip. The weather woudn't give us a break then entire day, but of course that didn't stop the fun. Headed from Burlington to Rutland around 5AM Saturday, in the pouring rain with my friend Randy to meet...

Going to be hitting Mendon/Killington/Pico this weekend and I'm pretty sure my route is going to be logging road to the height of the land, wack south then west to the peak. Back to the logging road, and follow that to the LT/AT, over and out to RT 4. Anyone have any other suggestions who has...
