I am thinking of heading up to North & South Kinsman this Saturday. However, the WETHA is not looking to be the best. But if anyone is interested let me know.

Two of the guys in our group Saturday opted to bushwhack to NW Hancock. One of them left his poles at the peak, with the intension of picking them up on the return. The density of the scrub was a determine factor in his decision. When he returned, the poles were missing. Did anyone from ROT or...

Outstanding day in the Whites Saturday - a tadd on the cloudy side, but the company was second to none and just being in the Whites is the best!!! Both trails to Hancock and So. Hancock are very steap and have an abundance of loose stone and gravel. Caution is needed to watch your footing...

Extra Flag I have an extra flag if someone needs one for this. Not sure if I can come up with the poling though. I guess I could part with ten feet from my rig, they would just need to bring duct tape & rope. thanks Bob

Awesome Nice TR Trish, and congrates on #25 for Alex!!!!

GlennS and I did the classic loop Sunday, Old Bridal Path to Greenleaf to Lafayette, along the Franconia Ridge Trail to Lincoln & Little Haystacks and down Falling Waters Trail. My 4th attempt at Lafayette, my first we went to Lincoln, everything was socked in and several of us were wiped out...

Sunday I am heading up to Lafayette Sunday, I know it is not Moosilauke, but urr welcome to join us.

Does anyone know if the Madison Gulf Trail or the Howker Ridge Trail have had any traffic this winter? Would like to know if there is any snow consolidation at all or just powder under the crust.

Glenn, Do you have any plans for Feb 28th?

Bruce, Do you and Glenn have any plans for Feb 28th?

Luke I was on Crasford Path 2 weeks ago and some guy named Luke had some nice peamanship. His name was written all over the place. I could not help but wonder where "leave no trace" stands when it comes to yellow snow. I always try to kick snow over my waste, i think i got it from my dog. You...

Bruce, thanks much for the great company yesterday!!!! I wen t to Mountain Gear.com and could not find that handy side sack you and bruce have on your packs. What was it called and who is the manufacturer?

The Skookumchuck trail is now broken out. What an awesome trail, nice wooded trail with a variety of flats & steeps, plenty of places to camp at many elevations. Even though there was an attempt at this trail last week, the snow was still unconsolidated for much of the trail. Post holing with...

Falls or Hats I thought it was the Susquahana Hat Co. for the stooges and Niagra Falls for the Abbot & Costello? Either way, they are both pretty funny!!!

I am hoping to get to the whites the weekend of Feb 7 & 8. Nothing too aggressive or ambitious, just an enjoyable day in the hills with a 4k or two. Please keep me in mind if you are planning something for that weekend.
