    Transporting bikes and canoes on Outback ?

    trailer hitch bike rack I have a 2013 Outback which should be about the same as yours. I have a 1 1/4" trailer hitch with a Thule 917XTR T2 rack mounted to it. I have traveled about 6,000 miles with a mountain bike and a cross bike on it. I have travelled on dirt roads and paved roads...

    Monongahela National Forest

    Blackwater Falls is worth seeing. There is a nice lodge there. Blackwater Canyon might be a place you'd like to explore. You can actually drive to the top of Spruce Knob. Seneca Rocks is a great place. Lots of White water rafting in WVa if you like. The New and the Gauley Rivers are great...

    west point invades Harriman state Park!

    I don't see much problem whether it is cadets or an orienteering club. Its always nice to have the woods to ourselves but that doesn't seem to be how it works as a general rule.

    emergency bivy ?

    MSR E Bivvy I have an MSR E bivvy. It is about the size of a coke can. I haven't used it much but I slept out in it the first night I got it to try it. It rained. My sleeping bag and I stayed dry. It is a bit claustraphobic inside as there is nothing to keep it off your face when closed...

    Missing Massachusetts Hiker located and safe

    I don't see anything wrong with a prepared person hiking alone. Factoring in the weather report and the weather you find is part of being prepared. It seems this guy was coming out on his own and was prepared. He just wasn't able to let his wife know he was ok. As for accidents, it doesn't...
