The National Huricane Center www.nhc.noaa.gov is showing that both Bonnie and Charley may stear up the east coast this weekend after making landfall in Florida. The forcast map for Charley even...
Thanks for all the good info.
We were planning the trip for this weekend but the weather looks like its turning for the worse. Lets hope our two storms down in the Gulf of Mexico decide not to...
A bit further up it is much easier and doesn't look like the class 4 move that is shown in the picture. Although, the picture is much deceiving, its not as exposed as the picture suggests.

As a non-native NEer, I am sitting here taking notes. People give us southern folk trouble for our slang. Some of the pronounciations are brutal for my tounge. I am afraid if I ever ask for...
Mike,
From my experience the Dyke would get my vote. In my opinion none of the moves up Huntington measure to Class 4. I believe and some trip reports say as much that the "crux" through the...

You can get your mud bath in the Santa's!
I hiked up to Bradley Pond Lean to Thursday 7/29, and hiked the Santa. Range and out on Friday 7/30. Never in my hiking life have I seen such mud. Going...
I am planning a 3+ day trip to take on the Dix Range, Dial and Nippletop, and the Colvin Range with the trip starting from Elk Lake (trip plan below). My biggest problem with the plan is coming back...
In my experience the Topozone/USGS product for Mt. Mansfield does not show many of the trails around the mountain. Green Mountian guide book is much more comprehensive. At the same time I...
Percious,
I had a similar experience.
The mutt and I hiked Marcy, Haystack in mid May. I stayed near JBL and at Slant Rock in mid May. Saw no poop, saw no bears. I heard a little rustling...
Markv,
My fiance and I are doing Mt. Washington and Mt. Mansfield over the weekend in an effort to finish off our NE State highpoints.
If going up sunset, laura cowles, or halfway house, your...
In preparation for another trip into The Presidentials with my fiance this weekend and after reading the thread on "things we do to get our wives, girlfriends, etc... to allow/put up with our...
Hiked Marcy last weekend (5/15) along Slant Rock Trail from the Garden. First snow on trail was around the ~3700ft level. Up to treeline there are maybe a half dozen patches of trail crossing snow...
