    Best restaurant for post-hike dinner in Whites

    I didn't go thru the 100's of replies but I want to plug Cantalano's Pizzeria in Twin mountain on 302. Wife and I hiked middle and south Carter Sunday and we were running late yet starving. We didn't have time for a real sit down restaurant type meal and my wife remembered driving by a pizzeria...

    Another hiker death

    Did this happen yesterday? If so, I saw the helicopter circling the area while doing the Carters and was thinking, looks like another accident/rescue on the trails. Damn shame. Hitting 56 this October I'm often thinking about stuff like that happening.

    Owl's Head in One Day??

    Well we did this last week and I have to say it's a beautiful walk in the woods for the most part. Some muddy areas but other than that very enjoyable hike. The slide was a lot easier than anticipated my wife was a bit nervous about it and she was quite comfortable. After coming off the slide we...

    Umbagog: water, other q's

    What great lake and campground. Some of the remote sites are quite a paddle about 7 miles if I remember correctly. They will hall all your stuff out there on their pontoon boat. As mentioned it is a shallow lake 60' or so at its deepest part so it does tend to get choppy with some wind. Very...

    What would your meal plan look like for 2 night backpack trip

    Now that's awesome! what a difference that would make in the morning to have a nice perc'd cup if joe. Is it made for hiking with or did you just find something that is small and works?

    What would your meal plan look like for 2 night backpack trip

    Wife and I have done some backpacking but not a whole lot, longest trip was 2 nights 3 days. Our grocery list consisted mostly of the dehydrated food from EMS or REI I was wondering what others take along that spice up the culinary experience a bit. How would you plan your meals for 2 or 3...

    Owl's Head in One Day??

    Thanks all I feel better about attempting this hike with the wife. Not that anybody cares about Owl's Head but if I have time I do a trip report. And for the techno geeky side of things anybody have a GPS location for the "real" summit?

    Owl's Head in One Day??

    Wife and I are debating whether to try and do Owl's Head in one day. I know that it's been done by others but we are not the fastest hikers. I'm trying to evaluate how strenuous the hike actually is as opposed to just being long. I'm also concerned about trail markings ie, is everything marked...
