    Greeley Ponds

    Does anyone have beta on Greeley Ponds? How's the skiing? Were they in the 'kill zone' from the big snow?

    Ski Touring in Western Mass or Southern VT

    So it looks like ground zero for these two storms we're getting will be western Mass and NH and all of VT. Anyone have a recommendation for a good half day or day long ski tour? My set up is a free heel on Karhu 10th Mtns so I'm not looking for any huge climbs but some climbing and...

    Snow on the Kanc

    Didn't see much on the conditions page so thought I'd ask. We're heading up to cut down our Xmas tree in the WMNF tomorrow, specifically along the Kanc and I was wondering how that area fared during the 'corker' this week. Snowshoes a must for good tree hunting? As an aside if you have not...

    Secret camping spots

    So we're thinking of loading up the car with the family (wife, 3-year old, dog) and heading north to the Whites with no clear intention. Call it a brief two day road trip. Anyone have secret spots where it's easy to call it a day and camp without reservations and without breaking any rules...

    Marblehead Paddling

    I'm looking for some good flat water paddling around Marblehead, MA. Looks like if you head into Beverly or Salem Harbors you'll find some good estuary paddling, but curious about where the best put-in's are. I'll be taking out my folks who aren't too keen on the swells of the open sea, hence...

    Berries 2009

    Little late this year (or in the wrong forum) but how 'bout a berry thread? Has anyone been up to Pitcher Mtn. in Stoddard? Is it berry heaven yet? Last year we were eating our Pitcher blueberries into October!

    Sunapee Camping Options

    So I'm heading up to the Sunapee area to do a xc mountain bike race next Sunday so the fam and I want to go up on Saturday and camp and hike around before Sunday's shindig. Where is a good place to camp? Prefer more backcountry style, but car camping campgrounds are cool too. We'll have our...

    Catamount Trail

    Hey all- A bunch of us are heading up this weekend to camp in a yurt near Huntington, VT that has access to the Catamount Trail and Long Trail. I'm curious if anyone has some insight on the conditions up there. We're planning on bringing our ski's and snowshoes, but would love some foresight...

    Blueberry Hike with the little one...

    Ok, so judging by an earlier thread the blueberries are in! Where would be a good low level hike to gather some wild berries with my 2.5 year old? I had it in my mind that it would be August before we saw berries...not sure why I wasn't thinking July. Thanks!

    Running in the Whites/NH

    I'm moving back to New Hampshire this summer and I was curious where you runners get your kicks in the Whites or other good mountain runs in New Hampshire. I'm talking trail running here. Thinking back on previous NH hikes I'm thinking that the Moats would make for a great run, but I was...

    Bugs.

    So how are the bugs in the Whites right now? We were planning a backpacking trip for this weekend, but I'm not sure I want to go if the beasties are still having their way with us. The weather looks pretty good (not too humid) but we were thinking the Zealand Pond area for a basecamp on...

    Favorite Mountain Ski Approach

    Since I finally got to break out the new ski's today and get comfortable on them on some local trails and a big field, I'm jones'ing to take them north! What's your favorite ski approach to a White Mtn. peak? It could be just the approach that leads to a winter summit, or it could be for the...

    Ski Sled Construction for kids/gear (or both!)

    Anyone have a good website or recipe for putting together a sled that can be towed while carrying a child so that kid's parents can get out and stretch their legs a bit? Should of thought of this when I got a Burley Cart over a Chariot! I'm going homemade now for the sled!

    Ski Conditions in the Whites

    So with winter making it's (way past due) arrival, how is the skiing in the Whites? Anyone been out? Thinking Lincoln Woods, Greeley Ponds, some of the trails in and around Pinkham... It may be late...but at least it's here...

    Arghh! Another Denver storm!

    The Front Range is getting blasted and it's forecasted to be back in the mid-40's by next Tuesday here! This winter is killing me! Especially since I have a co-worker who lives in Boulder who LOVES to rub in the fact that they have a 2+ foot base in the high desert while us 'hearty chilly...
