We'll be there! Craig and I are planning on being there - hopefully before dark on Friday!

Craig and I will be there - hope to arrive Friday evening!!

The guide book says that there are no water sources above treeline, and there is considerable trail above treeline on Katahdin. Plus you are gaining elevation very quickly. I always drink more when the terrain is steep, so I always carry more water.

Unrelenting DOWN I descended the Dudley Trail after going up Cathedral and across Knife's Edge. It isn't a long trail - but the "down" is unrelenting. IIRC, it seemed as if every step required butt scooting - or at least a decent "jump" down. I don't think there were too many times when I...

JohnL - those photos are stunning!!!!! Audrey - I wish I could go with you!!!! But, with the pending arrival of my first grandson, I'll just hang around here instead. Have fun!!! I'm jealous!!! Kris

I've hiked in Bear Brook many times. There is a five mile loop (using several different trails) that I have done several times as a full moon snow shoe hike! It's fabulous. The terrain is very gentle (thus beginners can easily do this). Yes there are snowmobiles, but they are not allowed on...

2000 Klein Quantum. Love it!!!

So glad it's later in August this year - I'm pretty sure we will be there (we couldn't have come to an earlier August date). Kris

I have now gone into my account information and added shipping address, etc. so that I can just checkout with one click! Now, on the off chance I see a $1.00 sale, I might just snag one (or not).....

It is madness! I was watching the web site just a few minutes ago when a women's soft shell jacket came up for $1 (can't remember the name brand). I immediately clicked to purchase and put all my info in, and when I went to checkout - it was already gone!!!! :mad: Someone else had been a bit...

YIKES!!!:eek:

Count us in!!!

I LOVE Blue Job!!! It's about 8 miles from where I live, so I can get there within 15 minutes. For a little peak, it's got a LOT of bang for the buck! Sunsets can be spectacular and I love that you can see all the way to the Whites - including Mt. Washington!!
