Hello everyone. I expect to be in Glencliff, NH by this Saturday. I'll probably get there by at least noon. Of course, it is subject to change as things always are out here on the trail. Okay, so right now I am at Pamola's and not out on the trail, but you know what I mean. I will head out from...

Would anyone be up for getting together the evening of Feb. 8 in Manhattan? I have to be there for a conference all day and would love to get together with some folks. There was talk of welcoming Alpinista to NY. She said she wouldn't be available until about 7:30 and the closer we are to the...

TMax and I pulled into the 19 Mile Brook Trail parking area this morning and saw that a van had all the windows smashed in on one side. There was gear still in the van so it looks like it was just vandalism and not theft. Besides, you only need to smash one window to get into the vehicle...

TMax, Jay H, a 3500 club friend and I did a 4 day, 41 mile backpack coming in from Cottonwood Pass with an eventual summit of Mt Whitney on July 10th. It was an awesome hike with spectacular views. We'll provide more info when we get home...typing is slow from my phone.

I wanted to test out my tent in the rain. This weekend was certainly perfect for that. I hiked in the Stratton Pond Trail Friday evening. The sign to the shelter was very tempting. If tenting had been allowed near the shelter, I might just have stayed there and set my tent up nearby and...

Views and Brews finisher #2 - pictures added I'll just post a summary here on VFTT, but you can view the LONG version here: http://viewsandbrews.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=10#10 The summary is lots of miles, 8 pubs, 8 hikes, 13 Bob Dylan CDs and an awesome weekend. :D Special thanks to...

Long post...sorry...but it was 10 total on the list and 1628 miles to get the finish (and be number 1)!! I started out planning to do 1 views and brews hike over the weekend. I contacted my Krazy friend to do Lyon Mountain on Saturday and visit the pub in Plattsburgh. Then I thought I could...

When I heard the summer trail head was still open, I just couldn't resist taking advantage of this to get Seymour. I remember all too well that extra 6 miles of road walk last year for the rest of the Sewards. However, that was an easier day. I started out about 7:45 AM with a cloudy day...

I will be taking some folks up Overlook Mountain in the Catskills (Woodstock) Thursday evening in case anyone is interested. There is a full moon so our plan is to go up after work...meeting at the trail head at 6:45 PM, start hiking up by 7:00 PM, then hang out and have a snack or dinner at...

Hello all, I guess I haven't posted much lately since I have been in China. I am actually in the Tokyo airport killing time right now. I have had a wonderful experience here. I went to Yellow Mountain which is spectacular although rather touristy. The hiking was on "sidewalks" with lots of...

It seems someone thought combining hiking with good beer was a good idea. The Albany Times Union had this article today: http://timesunion.com/AspStories/story.asp?storyID=361572&category=ONTAP&BCCode=&newsdate=5/22/2005 Okay, so this isn't really an event, but I couldn't resist posting it...

I'm planning on doing a Catskill hike this Friday. My current plan is to do Graham and then if all goes well, maybe go up Balsam Lake as well. There is a small list of other Catskills I might be persuaded to do instead. If anyone is interested, let me know.

Yes, I know it's hunting season, but a few of us are planning on doing some hiking in the Catskills this weekend. The plan is to do Peekamoose and Table on Saturday and Halcott on Sunday. We will meet at the Kingston park and ride (get off the thruway at Kingston, enter the traffic circle, get...

I know there are a lot of people finishing lists this weekend with a big celebration at the Woodstock Inn on Saturday. If anyone would like to join us for Carrigain on Saturday, there will be 4 of us finishing our 115! We will plan on being at the Signal Ridge trail head around 7:30 AM. I...

Around the end of 2003, I put together a plan. I wanted my husband Tom and I to finish the 46ers together. Tom needed 24 more and I needed 16. We also wanted to finish the 115 together with our friends Bonnie and Phil in 2004. Tom needed 39 and I needed 21 for the 115. So, we had a lot of...

My husband and I are finishing up on Whiteface this Saturday. We don't need Esther, but there are some going who may opt to snag it. We are going in via Whiteface Landing and out by the Research Center. Our party will be at the Lake Placid Pub & Brew Saturday evening starting around 5:30...

My husband and I plan to do the Hancocks on Aug. 7th and Lincoln (via Falling Waters Tr) on Aug. 8th. If it's a nice day for the ridge, we might head on over to Lafayette and come down the Old Bridle Path. We like early starts. Let me know if anyone is interested in joining us.
