In the spirit of Chinese New Year:), let's toast!
I don't have much creative ideas for new venues, how about our old beloved Burren at Davis Square? Feb 1st, next Tuesday...
2 or 3 weeks trekking around some of the most spectacular mountains in the world. I'm thinking of going during the second half Nov till early Dec. Anyone?
The trip can be customized to fit different schedule and I'm flexible about time...
I'm leaving for Everest in late March, and I'm having a big party in downtown Boston at Mojito's on Feb 26, Friday, 7-9pm. Food, drink, dancing, entertainment, a lot of raffle prizes! Mark your calender and come have fun!
Please RSVP on facebook...

Mark the date and come have some fun after a day's fine climbing/hiking!
Got some time in hand? I'm going to do some road trips in the north east region (anywhere from ADK to Maine to Nova Scotia or Quebec) during the next few weeks (till mid July). Each trip can be from a day or two, up to a week or two. Plan to do hiking/climbing along the way, as well as culture...
Looks like good snow up north for the right time. Anyone in action for two years of hiking/skiing with a drink or two in between? I'm thinking of Dec 31 - Jan 1, then Jan 3-4 (Jan 2 is a working day for me).
Too many Thunderstorms every weekend. Anyone feel like a spontaneous slow trail run to Owls Head tomorrow? It might be the only good day this weekend. Open to other suggestions as well.
Anyone up for a medium paced open pemi this weekend?

Holiday to me is just another day off work. Thought about going to Colorado for some XC ski and hiking to the high peaks, but the airfare seems not too cheap. I'm hoping to get some good boost before I head off south for the winter like an migrating bird (I'm climbing in Antarctica and Aconcagua...
I'm looking to do some long hikes this weekend, in the range of 30+ miles for two days. The options I'm considering include pemi loop, presis traverse, moria-carter traverse, and open to other suggestions. I enjoy carrying weight and slow death march from dawn to dark (but plan to headback by...
