Interesting article about auroral activity and its disruption of GPS satellites. Aurora and GPS accuracy Kevin

Despite the forecast for hot weather, I decided on hiking North Dome and Sherrill yesterday. I had only recently started hiking again after a recurring knee injury forced me into hiatus for 5 months during the winter, but had already done several hikes in Harriman and Memorial Day weekend had...

Well, I've decided to brave the nettles and give these two peaks a go tomorrow morning. If anyone wants to join me and my friend, we should be at the Devil's Path Westkill Trail head on Spruceton Road by 8:30 a.m. I'll have my cellphone on after 5 a.m. and shouldn't lose coverage until around...

Anyone been up North Dome and Sherrill recently? I was wondering if the nettles are prohibitive yet. Thanks, Kevin

When I saw that Doublebow was returning to the Catskills and looking for people to hike with I jumped on the opportunity to return to the area after my 5 month hiatus from hiking. With only 3 hikes, all in Harriman, since returning to the woods I proposed Peekamoose and Table since I had done...

Yesterday I hiked with Doublebow (Ross) and his wife at Peekamoose and Table. Ross had planned to leave us at Table summit to bushwhack Lone and from there to hike down to the Neversink River, follow it west to the trail leading out to Denning Road parking area. He left us at approx. 12:45...

Well, it's been a lousy winter for me. My last hike was November 10th on Plateau (first snow of the season too). After that hike my right knee, which I've been having on and off trouble with since 2006 was hurting enough to sideline me. I thought I'd be out of action for at most a month...

I put mine on my car... :D Kevin

Cool little tip (especially if you don't want to carry a tripod!

Gravelly Run I don't know somehow it seems sufficient to see and hear whatever coming and going is, losing the self to the victory of stones and trees, of bending sandpit lakes, crescent round groves of dwarf pine: for it is not so much to know the self as...

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the...

...by Ralph Waldo Emerson The Snowstorm Announced by all the trumpets of the sky, Arrives the snow, and, driving o'er the fields, Seems nowhere to alight: the whited air Hides hills and woods, the river, and the heaven, And veils the farmhouse at the garden's end...

Just ran across this at Luminous Landscape : Free trial available and seems reasonably priced. Kevin

I think it will be winter when he comes. From the unbearable whiteness of the road a dot will emerge, so black that eyes will blur, and it will be approaching for a long, long time, making his absence commensurate with his coming, and for a long, long time it will remain a dot. A speck of dust...

I'd like to propose that we do some challenges, like I've seen on other photography forums. The idea being to have a category, a topic, etc., and then post pictures accordingly. No prizes, just the admiration of our fellow photographers. Kevin

Originally I was planning to do a traverse of Plateau and Sugarloaf from Notch Lake to Roaring Kills Road. Unable to find a second car, Mountainmeijin was kind enough to offer my friend Rich and me a ride from Roaring Kills Rd. over to Notch Lake to start our hike. I had anticipated snow as I...
