Several years ago, I did a 5-peak trip in the ADK with a guy who had one knee replaced and was going to have the other done also. Proper rehab will get people back out there!

Is there a well beaten path to "The Captain" Deception, Fool Killer, Mt. Kanc? I don't think they appear on any list, is Kanc a NH 100?

Welcome back, love the view from the top of the hump looking over the lake at the ADK's

My 4th Allagash Trip. Anyone with info on what gauges to watch for river flow?

It was pretty good on Morgan and Percival today too

Another day today hiking in shorts, this time in Central CT.

The link goes to a fundraising polar plunge, is that what you thought it was? Looks like it was done correctly and people came prepared.

A standard that is argued in Courts in every county, in America and decided by an everchanging body of jurists as directed by a judge and after listening to two smart people argue against one another. Yes, sometimes the case seems stupid, however, one of the smart people have to raise a shadow...

Hiking along CT's shoreline in shorts and a T-Shirt today and plenty of people sitting on the beach. The water is still under forty degrees.

People do bring up the AMC Winter Skills Course but a month of relatively easy winter conditions and happy selfies are very seductive on FB. Someone was complaining their Merrell Moabs were failing in the last month. When did Moab's become winter boots?

Is that a Bernese Mountain Dog? If yes, you're babying him at 12 degrees you softy.

Our Council in CT has a klondike with sleds required. Most years, mother nature failed to provide snow.

I'm planning on walking Friday night or Saturday in my neighborhood, another wake and funeral will keep me home. (4th since mid-Nov.) We won't really know what the wind speed will be yet for the weekend, it is setting up though to be similar to the weekend Kate M. went out. Old bans may have...

And it's 10,000 feet above sea level. While not deadly, for sea level dwellers, you'd notice your lungs working harder and you would probably be slower.

Spoiler Alert: Some corrections, mostly of one paragraph: The movie covers a lot of ground, from what I can make of it, but seems to be about a family coping with loss. In this case, the loss of two family members. The first Alison Hargreaves, the first woman to solo Everest without oxygen...
