I recently became aware that many kayak manufacturers recommend transport with the curved side of the hull bearing the weight rather than the portion that touches the water if that makes a difference.

Im living in the area temporarily near the lake. The Independence Inn has some great local ipa's, including a cherrywood smoked brew. If the lot is full, there are backup options for a couple of paddlers and a way to get 4 boats to the lake at once.

My MSR Miox failed, and the Steripens would never work in the cold for me. I thought the Miox was the ultimate solution because it would take on viruses....I went back to boiling water.

I dont know much about the heated gloves, but they seem to show up in the glass cabinets at LL bean outlet stores very often.

Where, may I ask?

I found it to be marginal at -27, but Im a side sleeper.

I think its a great time for people to go car camping and try out the insulation in their gear. Any problems, just get back into the car... I remember doing this years back and finding out that -40 rating on my bag was a lie. And when I added layers it pinched the bag and things got worse. I...

I am curious about whether you'll be able to access any repeaters while you are in the lower parts of the Pemi.

I stand corrected...his cell phone died before he could call for help....or so suggests the Boston...

There are plenty of inexperienced hikers that make it out alive. Conversely there are many experienced hikers who meet unfortunate ends. So far all I see is people losing the trail interacting with inadequate equipment. As an aside, if the latest victim was being tracked, barring some kind of...

For 30 bucks they sent me 2 straps for 1225's. They included the hardware to replace the rivet. I did have to drill out 2 rivets but the special screws and washers were easy to install.

Yah theres the zero-dark-thirty department with night vision and laser optics but I think I recall seeing some high powered crossbows and threaded spear tips, no ninja stars tho. Honestly they carry some good quality gear along with the Coleman stuff.

Theres a Black Hawk that is just entering the area now. If you go to adsbexchange.com, select live tracking map, then hit the U button to just show military traffic, you can see its search pattern...(assuming there is adbs coverage) Edit: at 1504 the track disappeared and now it is back...it...

I remember getting my first set of Kneissl Cross Country Skis in Hartford Connecticut in the late 70's. I think they took their first hit from the Internet--I grew tired of being pushed to boots or sizes in stock rather than something that had to be ordered. Then their lifetime warranty...

Turn Around Due to Leaves I tried to go up to the South Taconic Range from the New York Side, but way south of the trail to Alander Cabin, more the latitude of Mt Frissell. Think of going up Owlhead on ice in sneakers--- had to turn around

What is the typical backpack solution for having to lug odd shaped things long distances...such as short 2x8's for bridge decking....flat stones that are far away from the maintenance area.. shovels and tools...etc....shingles for a lean-to?

Has anyone got their car towed from the Kanc?

Well, last year did not go as planned. I am having great luck with the other authorized Atlas repair center.... www.mountainsoles.com. They got back to me in an hour. The good news is that they can install new heel straps and they have inventory. The turn around time is 4-6 weeks, plus...

They are coming out in the suburbs of Concord NH, although not in high numbers yet. They just became slightly bothersome at the end of a six mile walk.
