Hi everybody, Thanks for the answers. I already have a baby sling, that I use a lot, mainly inside, since its birth. I guess I will have to use it for the first hikes, although I am affraid it will be warm / hot for the baby and for the carrier. And after, I will try the pillow trick...

Hello! We have a 5 months old baby, and we bought a child carrier backpack (Kelty FC 3.0). I tried it a couple of time in the house and in the yard, since the baby is a bit too young yet to go on a hike. This afternoon, the baby felt asleep in the backpack, and I saw that its head was falling...

Yes, that is very cool! Thanks for the hint :)

Could somebody more savvy than I could start a new poll with the same subject so we could see the results starting March 26... I would bet that the "No" answer would get a bit more popular now ;)

Ok, lets try, even if I don't feel to sure! 2a) The little pond at the north end of Crawford Notch, near the Highland center (sorry, don't know the name, don't have my map with me). 2b) Overlook on Mt. Willard ? Let's see if I will ridiculize myself now!! :)

Hi there! We didn't decided yet, but we will confirm tomorrow. The only "stopper" event is that we have a supper planned for Saturday night, and it is a 3 hours drive for us to go there. The plan is to leave early the "party" on Saturday night, drive to Gorham so we won't have to get up a 3 am...

Hi there! We might be in too, I have to talk with my "boss"! We were planning to hike somewhere anyway for this last "winter" weekend! What is the approximate distance + estimated time (I know, it depends ;) )for that trip ? I will confirm if we go or not!

Maybe too late but... Hi there, We hiked up Edmands path last Saturday (Feb. 23). There was a little hard crust on the trail and I believe it has not been hiked since a few days, but the bottom was hard. The snowshoes were needed, but we were not going to deep either. We were only 2 and had no...

Date of Hike: February 23 Parked at the train, then we walked down the road up to Clinton Rd. Two cars were parked there, just in front of the No parking sign, but we didn't want to take the chance to get our car towed away. Then, we walked along the snowmobile trail (Clinton Rd) up to the...

Hi there, After a aborted attempt to Eisenhower today, and too windy for us for a planned Mt. Washington tomorrow, we will gladly be there! You might not read this tonight, but we should meet tomorrow. I've pm you also,

Happy birthday Jason! I am not looking forward to be that old ;) , but hopefully, I will get there! I am 31, and would happily go back to 20, just to enjoy life longer!

Date of Hike: 1/27 Up by Avalon Tr (via Mt. Avalon), Willey Range Tr, Mt. Tom Spur Down by A-Z Tr, Avalon Tr. Trail Conditions: All well packed down, no postholes, no ice. A few inches of new snow. The spur to Mt. Avalon was not packed down and we didn't hiked it either. Special Equipment...

Date of Hike: January 27 Trails used: Crawford Path, Webster Cliff Trail, Jackson Brook Trail (right name ?) and Webster-Jackson Trail. Trail Conditions: Few inches of snow over a well packed trail, all the way. In open areas, some snow drifts, but not a lot. Special Equipment Required: We...

Date of Hike: December 26 Trail Conditions: All trails packed down. A bit icy on the ridge, had to be careful. Some windy spots on the ridge, but we had the wind in our back and the sun in the face! Special Equipment Required: Traction for the ridge, but normal crampons were sometimes a pain...

Date of Hike: December 27 Trail Conditions: The brook crossing had to be handled with care, since the rocks were icy. Both trails were hard packed. We bare booted up to were it becomes very steep in the Mt Osceola Trail, where we put crampons. The steep ascend was easy, with the hard packed...

Good! So maybe we will see you there, we are not sure in which order we will do our mountains! Thanks!

Hi Jason! We were planning on going there this weekend too, for hiking a subset of Pico, Mendon, Equinox, Dorset. So, where do you go finally on Sunday? Equinox or Mendon ?? Thanks :)

Thanks everybody, but because of hunting season, we will probably head out somewhere else, or nowhere! I'll keep the info for the future!

Good enough! I am convinced now! I've liked the comment about people who would eventually hunt on Sundays in ME even if not allowed! At first thought, I've said to myself "Super! Let's go on Sunday only and be safe!". But, I agree that even if you might have less hunters out there, it might not...

Hello, What is your opinon about hiking (mainly in remote areas, trailless peaks of Maine and New Hampshire) during the hunting season? In National Forests, in public lands, etc? We were looking for hiking this weekend either in the Rangeley Region or near the Kancamagus Hwy (Nancy, Vose...
