    Spring Wildflowers 2015

    Any help in identifying these would be appreciated... We were up north of Pittsburg yesterday and found these on a shrub on the trail out. We've seen them once before, in the winter, and they don't seem to open. Assume they are seed pods of some sort, but not sure. Looked online to see what...

    NH Fire Tower List

    It would be nice if there was a GPX file that contained all the Towers / locations that people could download or, if they don't have a GPS, view all the points on something like Wikiloc / Google Earth. If nobody has this done this, I'd be happy to get it started and then the community can help...

    Waterville Valley Early Diner?

    Anybody know why Stix has been closed the past two weekends? Stix was a favorite place for breakfast but its been closed the past two weekends (maybe during the past week as well).

    2013 Spring Wildflower Thread

    Magalloway Mtn - what's this?

    This picture is from a hike we did back in 2007. Never knew just what this was - seems pretty "official" with the number "3" (never found "1" or "2") and pretty well made - note arrow going through both wooden platforms. It was on a side trail going from summit to a "views" point. Any ideas...

    Table Rock and Dixville Peak - 18-Oct-07

    Overall, it was a pretty good day. There was still some color in the Dixville Notch area. We had never hiked the trails in the Balsam's area before so we decided to do Table Rock (from Rt 26 - TR50) and then to go onto Dixville Peak via the Cohos Trail. It was muddy, muddy, muddy, and wet! I...
