I also met him while he was in the lobby of Kittery Trading Post. My wife knowing of my desire to read anything Everest related bought me his book for Christmas that year. Anyway he took the time to talk to anybody who wanted to ask him a question or two. I agree with the previous person that...

I will be visiting Costa Rica in April and will be staying in three different areas. I would like to know if anyone has any information on hikes that you thought were amazing in those areas. We are staying in San Jose, close to Arenal Volcano, and on the Pacific Coast. Thanks

Looking to do one of my last 3 4k's I need Cabot (York Pond to Cabot), Isolation (Rocky Branch), and Moriah (Carter_Moriah). Does anyone have any information on the trail conditions on any of these mountains? I searched the trail condition forums and there was nothing there. Thanks

I always carry a camera with me when I hike. When I got into Baxter you better believe I would have one. My point is if I saw someone doing all that off trail I would have snapped wuite a few pictures which could now be used by authorities.

When I was in tech school we had Harriers landing at our field periodically. I was not on the flight line when I was in the Air Force so I didnt get to hear and see all the planes often enough for me. We were on Galehead last weekend when (probably) those same A-10's flew over. Not much can...

I (among others) will be on Carrigain tomorrow. Hope to see many people there.

Maybe it connects to the vault on LOST.

Let me start by asking a related question. Who paid for the shelters to be built in the first place? As a previous person already stated there has to be a system for establishing who gets spots in the shelters. Unless you want to pass out "special badges" denoting "rank" as established by the...

I bought the LL Bean Bigelow after reading a review in backpacker--it costs brand new $59.

I remember some of the section of the Wildcat Ridge Trail giving me pause in the summer time never mind the winter. I am not a big fan of heights or falling from them.

I am a pretty close to book time hiker--the book says that the Livermore-Scaur Ridge is 12.1 7hr 35min. The Pine Bend is 8mi 6 hrs 50 min. First off are my distances correct? Second since the times are about comperable if they are correct which of the two would be easier? Thanks

What is the best/easiest way up Tripyramids in the winter?

I have a daughter who is almost one as does my hiking partner. As has been stated before it all comes down to realizing what you are capable of and what a small child is capable of. I absolutely plan on carrying my daughter up mountains next spring and fall. I absolutely will not put her in...

I just bought a pair of these same boots. Thats a killer price--I hope I bought the right size.

If I am not mistaken they were making war in order to make love.

I could not agree with you more. Actually I think that the government has a name for them--criminals. If the others that replied to my post would reread it they will see that i was advocating talking to other people about there views. I did not, not to I advocate name calling on these or any...

I find it funny that people who dont agree with us are usually labeled as ignotarant or worse. Whats funny is they probably think the same about you and whats even more funny is that the truth probaby lies somewhere in the middle. Dont most of you consider man an animal anyway? What would...

The Subaru had that sticker a WMNF sticker and one with the outline of a hiker with a stick (you know the one). I have not had the opportunity to get a sticker for my car to identify it. I do however see stickers on other cars. This was the first time I had seen one close to home.

I was on my way to teach this morning and spotted a sticker on the back of a Subaru Legacy in Derry NH. Just wanted to let you know that you were seen and recognized.

I was ticketed once when climbing the Kinsmans. Neither my hiking buddy nor I saw the sign--we got there real early and had gotten up real early. I never paid the ticket--not because I didnt want to but because I forgot. Nothing ever came of it. You know the funny thing I was just reading...
