The Taconic Range is loaded with Copperheads and Timbers.

Split Rock Mt, Adirondacks, black morph Timber Rattlesnake. Very Grumpy. Struck at the person right ahead of me who almost knocked me over jumping back.

I'm one of the fire tower stewards on Overlook Mt, Catskills. There are dens on and around it. I see them all the time. Always concerned that too-specific photo locations are not good for their safety.

I received a red, Swiss Army knife as a wedding present. Still have it. Replaced as a hike-carry with a variety of multitools, including one very large one too heavy to carry in the field. The small, micro-tools all have needle-nosed pliers and I've dequilled my last dog 7x and those of others...

Warren, that is great news. Hope it comes to pass.

Joe, looking to replace my wife's. She doesn't need a super duper one, but a shell that will keep her warm for a few hours out with our dog on the windy golf course.

Checked it out, no longer made unfortunately.

Those dog walks are usually five exposed miles on a windy golf course. 2-3 hours coming from our home. For me heavy duty outer mitts with thick wool liners and chemical hand warmers work.

Finding a softshell under $200 has been a challenge. Mountain Hardwear and OR used to make models that fit the bill. Now, they are big bucks or super thin stretchy fabric that are more appropriate as rain gear. Earlier this year I sent my 15 year old Mountain Hardware back under warranty to fix...

With cold weather coming, following up to see what people think of the heated gloves/mitts they've used. This is for a family member who will use them for 3 hours at a time out in the open on dog walks. Regular mitts with handwarmers so far still leave the Raynauds fingers less than ideal...

MIssed the last two due to covid. Was planning to be at this one and came down sick two days before. Always a wonderful time seeing people from here and elsewhere.

Thank you. Right at the bottom there is a contact, Deane Morrison. He and I have already been in touch. Patches are $5, stickers $4.

Thanks, is there a best way to get in touch with AMC re patches and decals?

Completer #142, Camel's Hump October '85. At that time finishers received a nice, spiral-bound roster with names, peaks and finisher number. In the back, a section with each finisher's 'biography' and a separate section for winter finishers. Albert Robertson was in charge at the time and he sent...

I was an ADK committee chair. Over my tenure, the membership list was closely held to avoid members feeling their information was being shared. Don't think that has changed.

ADK's magazine, Adirondac, is only available to Club members in print or online with a password.

Gene used to comment on my license plate when we hiked together. PEAKBAGR, and we'd laugh as to who got it first. LOL. What a guy.

What type of contact cement would you recommend under cordura and thin leather patch?

Braces don't work under socks. Lots of great ideas here, thank you very much.

Got the Aquaseal FD and the heavy duty Gorilla tape. Do I apply the Aquaseal. Then Gorilla Tape after it dries? Or Gorilla Tape with Aquaseal on top of it?
