    Access to Monadnock, VT

    Someone told me the landowner put a sign to keep people off his lawn, but it wasn't clear is access is still allowed or not, does someone know more about it? Been there only once years ago.

    NE111, first finishers?

    Hi, There is some decent info on the history of the 46ers and the New England 67 on the web, but I couldn't find the first finishers of the combined list (excluding the lastest changes in the '90), not necessarily looking for their names, but at least the decade.

    Anyone active on the 3k lists?

    We just finished New Eng. 3k (451) on Twin Peaks in ME and there was very few recent entries in the canister, even by under 3500' ME standards. I know someone at 774/777 who is eager to finish, me and my partner are kinda stuck close to 770 with a few private ones in NY and a trip to PA that we...

    Avalon/Tom TH, parking?

    I always wondered where you're supposed to park for this TH, I know there is some spots in front of the depot, I guess you're not supposed to use the actual depot parking, and there is of course the larger crawford parking not far away... (obvisouly there is also the Highland center parking...

    Winter parking updates ?

    Hi, it's been a while since I hiked regularly in NH during winter, trying to see what changed on the parking situation. Is parking at the Seven dwarves still an option? What about Garfield, if I recall correctly there is limited space there. Is the Rocky Branch TH usually plowed? I have no...

    Recent trip to Maine to almost complete our NE3Ks

    On July 16th we got to Jackman to get a straggler, Coburn that we missed on an aborted trip pre-COVID19. We followed the snowmobile trail and took the steep herdpath up to the "fire tower" / antenna at the top. We then headed to Moosehead lake to get a proper start to this two-weeks trip. We...

    Sleeping in cars allowed at Lafayette Place?

    Hi, Just saw someone reporting on a FB group that there is a sign saying you can sleep in your car at Lafeyette Place, is this a exception because it's a state park and not a WMNF parking? (The OP might just be wrong).
