Seward's Hi Una, I think you were the two plus dog I talked to in the parking lot the day before when you were going over the map and planning your hike. I was in the red Honda CRV. Glad to see you made the hike safely and Congratulations and Happy B-Day to Nancy. Thanks for the great...

Congrats Tom and Laurie! Best of luck and happiness to two of the nicest people I have met and great friends. See you soon!

Congratulations Tom and Laurie on a great accomplishment. Sorry I couldn't have been there to celebrate but was thinking about you on St Paddy's Day as I sipped my beer and watched the basketball games. How brave to finish on a little one like Allen. Best of Luck and hope to see you soon on...

Dawn, best of luck! I have no doubt you will make it all the way. Enjoy the journey and be safe. God Speed. Phil

Good TR Tom. I enjoyed seeing you guys again and in spite of the Nettles enjoyed the hike and conversation. The trail desparately needs some work to cut back on the prickers and nettles. The kayak cart worked great on our trip to Little Tupper Lake on Sunday. Thanks again Laurie. We used it...

Thanks Dawn.

Yes! Tom, you and Laurie should buy kayaks and try something equally as enjoyable as hiking. Its a great complement to hiking one being lower body and then upper body exercise that you can do back to back on the weekends. Not that it matters to an Ironman and Woman like you guys. Its a...

We continued our goal of hiking the fire towers and kayaking nearby waterways. We had a wonderful time at Paul Smith's College while we were at the ADK St.Regis Canoe/Kayak Outing for 6 days of paddling the beautiful St. Regis Lakes area and hiking some fire towers. The first day we paddled...

Great photo Tom. Put that one in a contest. Hello to Laurie!

The door is still off the hinges and a lot of wood piled on the floor. I didn't enter the cabin but noticed some electrical wires and on our way down saw a small telephone type pole on the side of the trail with some old wires on it. So the cabin must have had electricity in its hayday. I...

Kane Mt. is located on Rt.29A/10 across from Canada Lake in the Southern corner of the Adirondacks about 4 miles north of Gloversville, N.Y. Its about an hour and a half ride from the Albany area and of the three trail options we climbed the South trail which is a 1.4 mile round trip. Short...

Hey Tom, how are you and Laurie doing? Thanks for the correction but I should have included that Wakely is the tallest in the NYS Forest Preserve zoned as Wild Forest according to the book. Didn't know about the Putnam tower, thanks for the info. I hope to be doing Asure, St.Regis and Lyon at...

The Fire Tower Challenge is a worthy cause and a great way to find some wonderful 360 views such as Vanderwhacker Mt. that provides a view of the entire Adirondack High Peaks or the Wakely Mt. tower that is the highest remaining tower at 80ft. Its also a great way to get your friends started...

Tom, great write up. It was great to hike with you and Laurie again. The description should be good info. for those heading to the Dacks. Its full time winter up there and full winter preparation is now necessary. Many of the hikers didn't have snowshoes or good information about the trail...

Twin & Sugarloaf David you did great for your first hike with a swallon knee. Good luck with the Dr. visit. I'm sure it will get better everytime out. I enjoyed the hike and the conversation. The weather was perfect and views superb! It was also good to see Rocky back out on the trails as...

Snowy Tom great pictures, looks like you had a beautiful day. Congratulations on the article in the TU Newspaper maybe more folks will accept the challenge and treat themselves to a brew or two. See you at the 46er dinner. Phil

So far, there is a pre-dinner hike at Pawtuckaway state park in Raymond, NH. I am goi Sherpa, Tom and Dawn, what time would you meet for the hike on Saturday morning? We're looking to hike but have to drive from NY, 3.75hrs or arrive the night before. Count us in for the party afterwards...
