^Beat me to it. Here it is in a snapshot: http://www.outdoors.org/pdf/upload/08-ann-report.pdf Make sure to disregard all the highlights about climate change research, trail work, urban and rural youth school programs, Roach Pond area protection, introducing people to outdoors, 'green' awards...

Disheartened Post removed; not interested in being part of the discussion.

hmm, i don't trust my skills in fashioning my own pressurized fuel canisters! really, no places to buy the canisters in bulk? I'll let people know how the stove works.

Also, how do people purchase fuel canisters economically? I probably spend 80+ days a year in the backcountry and have normally used a Whisperlite. I doubt I would ever use a canister stove exclusively, but would like to have the option and would like to purchase several fuel canisters at one...

http://www.jetboil.com/Products/Cooking-Systems/Helios Anybody use one of these yet? I've been impressed by the Personal Cooking System and would consider purchasing one of these.

I'm thinking through West Yellowstone. We'll be dropping two other friends off at the airport in Missoula. I'm still open to route changes and will probably stick with the AC route, unless I have good reason to go elsewhere.

Thanks, Becca. That's what I'm worried about is just getting going on Gordon Pond. Was there still much signage? Anybody else been on Gordon Pond? Any camping on that stretch of Kinsman Ridge? Thanks!

Thanks for the AC forums! That will help greatly. Will hope to keep hearing from people here, too. Thanks.

The Globe had to have provoked the attack. How did they just happen to get that perfect picture sequence??!

My girlfriend and I are planning a bike tour this summer from Edmonton to Jackson, WY through Jasper, Banff, Glacier, Yellowstone and the Tetons. I am going to take some notes from the Glacier thread here, but I am looking for more suggestions, especially in terms of camping, must-do hikes for...

I am planning a trip for a group on the Kinsman Ridge Trail and wondering what the prospects are for backcountry camping off the Kinsman Ridge Trail between 112 and Gordon Pond. We would be moving slowly and spending the second night at Eliza Brook. Anybody have any experience in this area...

Good stuff here. Many thanks. David, can you say a bit more about Nunnemacher? We'll bring water and plan on melting snow, too. Sleeping area? Kitchen stuff? Anything to get a sense of what we need to bring or not bring would help. Thanks!

A group of us are headed to Dartmouth's Nunnemacher Cabin(in Lyme, near Dartmouth Skiway) next month. This is my first time to the Hanover area and I'm looking to put together a Recreation Guide with options for everybody. ANybody been to Nunnemacher who has some words of wisdom about the...

Thanks, Yeah, I'd looked at the basic city forecasts. I know there are sites for high elevation forecasts or at least ones with all the models to make your own forecasts. I remember looking at some great forecasting sites in an avalanche class. Will be going to the standard Ecuador peaks...

Hey gang, I am looking for websites to look up international, high elevation weather forecasts, specifically for Ecuador. I am leaving for 12 days of mountaineering on Friday and want to start getting the long-term forecasts, as well as check the updated forecast while there. Any help would...

Good thoughts here. Thanks. Would order the spectra online, but I'll be leaving in three days and will have to find a quick fix.

Just purchased a GoLite Ultralite 4 for a bike tour I will be leaving for on Thursday. Want to check out the dimensions tonight and set it up out back, but wanted to see what people recommended for cordage. I have used the basic parachute cord before and find that it stretches way too much...

This one took my breath away for a while. My friend spoke highly of Christine having done a WFR recert or some such course with her. Sounded like a wonderfully driven, graceful woman. What a shame.

I saw this on ESPN and could not believe that it did not get more attention. I am hoping it gets some more press. Made me even more inconsolable about not currently having a dog! I lived in that area for a few years and have run/biked in that exact spot dozens of times. She has quite a...

Anybody have any experience climbing with IMCS out of North Conway? I have two friends coming in for a visit and am hoping to do a day of ice climbing with a guide. Am hoping to get a few names that I can request to be paired with. I am sure everybody is well trained and has solid experience...
