I have a right ankle issue that requires boots with support. In the past, Asolo Backpackers have been good. I am thinking of getting a new pair, but want to know if anybody knows a brand that has the same quality of support but go higher up over the ankle, like plastic winter boots.

Flume Liberty Loop After this thread, I parked at Basin at 7 a.m. Missed the bushwhack, it wasn't that obvious. I guess if you are looking for the log bridge, it might be easier to locate. But the main trail was only a short way further. Took Flume Slide trail, people had been up it the day...

Just out of curiosty, does anyone know of any other new england peaks, or futher afield, named for a woman?

I saw in the in the Conway Daily Sun that Adams 4 had been changed to Abigail Adams. But I just Googled that, and found nothing. Does anybody know where it can be found on the Web?

Does anybody know if Snow's Mountain Ski Area in Waterville is open for skiers in the winter now? On the Web, I only see that it is open in the summer to transport mountain bikers up to the slopes above. Yet climbing up the Cascade Trail to the Snow's Mountain service road, we saw a...

You start down fron the summit on left hand north loop, go over a couple small rises then turn west and begin to head down. On the gentle slope before heading down, this very vague path takes off north. I agree that it is hunters. Just after it ended on the ridge, there was an area of spruce...
