I'm sure you already know this but I'll just throw in my 2 cent question anyway. There are two lean-tos within a half mile or so of the start of the herd path to Seward. Any reason for choosing to return the 4.5 mi to Duck Hole? I've never camped at Duck Hole nor can I fathom the 6mph+ pace -...

Agreed. I sent a similar comment within ten minutes of posting the above message. I didn't know if there was someone specific to whom I/we can direct these comments for maximum effect.

Is there anyone to whom we can write at the Visitor's Bureau to request to have this page resurrected? I and I'm sure others, have come to rely on your reports for snow conditions and hope that there is some way the conditions page will be back.

Nice job and great pix!

Another choice Since nobody mentioned the Lillian Brook path... Day 1 Car from Clear Pond to Slide Brook LT - set up camp Day 2 Macomb slide to S. Dix to E. Dix to S. Dix - decision point - to continue to Hough/ Dix or return to LT via either Macomb (climb back to Macomb and down slide) or...

If you lost a pair of glasses recently in the Dix range I have them. Pm me with description and address.

is it Vanderwhacker from Goodnow??

How about Bradley Pond from somewhere on the Santanoni Express trail

Lake Tear from Skylight?

I'm planning on going in from the loj, possibly part way with skis (extent of which is negotiable/discussable/snow dependent). Potential route may include Lake Arnold trail to Feldspar Brook and back or one way over Marcy, esp if skiing conditions are favorable. Anyone interested?

We stayed in Ouray a few years ago and just loved the less touristy feel of the place. Silverton is down the road over Red Mountain pass I believe. Both offer some great options and you can certainly do both. We took our rented Suburban over to Telluride straight thru the heart of the mtns...

Well the day started out promising enough, one group signed in for the whole Dix Range and another for Dix and Hough. I gave it a 50 - 50 chance that the Lillian Brook herd path would be broken out by one of the groups from the top down. Donning skis for the road from Clear Pond and then on to...

Thanks for the bday wishes

This is a good loking combo - shouldn't be too hot in the sun (what sun... we're in NY & NE not Hawaii:D) Seems in keeping with Darren's desire for consistency. t

Agree with above re:color grey or similar to be useful on the trail. Design 1 is far more in keeping with the open mountain feel. The box well... ...seems boxed in

Nice Tr. Great pix. Sounds like a fun and fruitful trip!

Pardon my ignorance but how does one calculate or measure prominence?

I know what you mean, who wants to carry those monster biceps and pecs up 3 or 4 thousand feet of mountain:D. I think weight training is helpful for a number of reasons and in different ways. First and maybe most important to me is that when you start an exercise/weight loss program, as many...

Winter Route Coming from the Calamity Brook trail you can go straight out onto the ice of Flowed Lands and skirt Livingston Point. The drainage from Cliff will be almost directly ahead. Stay to the right of the drainage on the way up and you can hit the peak directly or hit the false peak...

Upper Works to Flowed Lands had about 6-8" of new over crusty footpath, mostly held weight. By the trip out most areas were well broken, but stream and even smaller water crossings were unfrozen at the time. Used Red trail from FL to Herbert Brook with fine conditions - did not attempt Flowed...
