GLB= great beer selection + great junk food (mmmmm chili cheese fries) If I am free that night count me in.

The lists are interesting, and I find them useful as an information resource. But mostly I hike wherever I feel like it, and have a tendency to revist hikes that I find appealing--hence it seems highly unlikely that I will ever complete any lists.

Well I said whoever has the axe, but what I really mean is I play it by ear depending on the circumstances. If I am beat (going up or down) I will yeild just to have an excuse to have a break. If I have a good head of steam on, and the other group isn't going to lynch me I might take ROW. But...

The road to Bodfish Farm is fine--it's the tote road that runs next to Long Pond Stream that is a complete mess.

Best bang for buck--Camel's Hump Underated--Tableland at Katahdin; got to love anyplace that looks like Houses of the Holy cover.

As this is my first post let be known that I am overweight, out of shape, and have bad knees--so anything I say about the severity of hike can (unless you're in the same boat) be taken with a grain of salt. Anyone planning to hike Barren Mountain should know a thing or two about getting...

The ride is always relaxed for me--after a difficult day I am lucky if don't slip into a coma on the ride home :)
