Oh thats awesome! I will have to keep that in mind. No... was just looking to get some late season (at the cusp of winter) photographs.

Baxter is to get 5-8 inches on wed night and stay cold...

Checked with them on Monday... although now they are calling for 3-5 inches wed night so that will make that option difficult. And I woke up this morning with an acute ear ache and left tonsil in...

I am headed to Baxter for some dayhikes, leaving on Friday the 28th.

I will use a mountain bike to access Roaring brook TH. As of today there was no snow on the tote road, just some icy spots,...

Miehoff,

Dont discount the Weminuche based on solitude alone:

It is the larest wilderness area in colorado.
It is also one of the farthest from Denver.

Its not far the Black Canyon of the...

I will second this. We did weminuche in 2008 and it was the most remote in CO. Simply amazing. Here was our itinerary.

Day 1: take durango-silverton train to elk pass trailhead and hike to...

This trip came together as a training hike for the Cascades and Rainier this summer, with a good friend. We could not have asked for a better trip!

Friday 3/29: We left Pinkham notch on Old...

Pending tolerable winds/weather...

The plan that got me movtivated is:
Saturday (12/1/12) going for a Northern Presi traverse with the hopes of at least making the trees just beyond Madison...

We too had a mouse in our car when we returned to it. We moved the food. The next day our hiking partner also had a mouse in his car... I drive around with traps now...Does this happen often in the...

Now only in search of Issue #2. Thanks Guys!

Does anybody have Alpinist Magazine Issues: #1, 2, 7, and/or 18? Please contact me if you do.

Longs peak has big air.

Its a judgement call. I'd just suggest spending enough nights at altitude prior to make it a comfortable day. Some of the biggest exposure is on the highest parts of the...

We did this loop in the winter and to be honest, I thought Israel ridge was a pleasant descent (given what you are coming off of). I only remember the stream crossing at the end, being the most...

Nice Trip Report!

Glad you stuck out the verglass on saddleback cliffs well. Did you have the option midcliff to climb the steep corner/chimney or move right on to verglassed rock? How heavy...

Great to hear. I think they have something like 54 total disc golf baskets at codurus (3, 18-hole courses). I have only played one. I too have family in Hanover. Its a good area.

We actually have some great courses down here in MD and just north in PA as well.

Favorites include: Mckeldin area of Patapsco state Park (MD), Seneca Creek State Park (MD), Codorus St. Park (PA)

This trip did not happen out of maturity and practicality speaking.

I believe they were calling for more rain after about 4-5 days of rain to begin with. My last trip to the dacks in November was...

Aside from DMSO, I have been dealing with distance running lately and unfortunately quite a bit has been on pavement.

My rules for running are:
1) Listen to my body, if something starts to hurt,...

DMSO is used as a solvent in high throughput screening for drug development. It is somewhere in between water and oil in terms of polarity. I'd be interested to learn if it had medical...

Good advice, thanks!

I wasnt too worried about ice, since I have done numerous trips to eastern high peaks later than this and found minimal ice. But thanks for the heads up. I will have my...

Well if I start before dark and assume I can maintain 6+ mph in the daks for the duration of the trip why stop at the lean-to, right? I could be back at duckhole for lunch! =)

Not quite. There...

Sounds good.

For the most part I think this plan is a GO. I do remember the swamp being north of wanika falls and like you said a highway after that. I just didnt know if that area was severly...

I'm coming up for a long weekend. Its been months since I have been up there and I currently dont have a feel for how water logged trails/swamps are.

Does anyone see any problems with the...

I lost a single microspike on 11/20 (~5:00pm) in the saddle between the galehead hut and S. Twin. It might be stuck on a tree I had to crawl under.

If you found this please PM me. I'll pay for...

I havent been up there recently, but it was clear a few weeks ago. I know you guys just got a bunch of snow.

I would check with rockandriver.com or contact one of the guides. Sometimes people at...
