Halloween comes around and your first two thoughts are: Guess I better check my list to see which Grid/monthly peaks I need for November! Then, sweet I'll have to go to the stores tomorrow to stock up on the leftover Halloween candy at super discount for the upcoming cold weather hiking...

I hiked up the Trap Dike a few days before Irene hit and took a series of photos (34) that now serve as the before, and I climbed it on 9/14 with Inge and took 90+. I also have 5 videos of the before and roughly 28 after. It will take awhile to upload all the video but I will try to have it done...

Clear hiker logic at its finest. Now hike my hike Dammit! .

A long distance hiker that goes by "Nature Boy" was making a speed record attempt on the Appalachian trail "unsupported" record of 60.5 days when he was attacked in the middle of the night and beaten. "I was woke up at 1am by a couple of guys yelling my name and throwing things at my tent...

Does anyone know or have a reference to the individual elevation gain/loss totals for sections of the Appalachian trail broken down by State? Mostly interested in Pennsylvania and North. Certainly, all would be great. Does anyone want to suggest their preferred maps for these sections?

Coming to a gear shop near you for the 2012 season.

Looks like the Mount Washington Observer crew had some fun last night. Here

I lost my camera possible between North Kinsman and the Lafayette campground on the night of 12/30. I went up to the hut looking for it Sunday and didn't see it but am taking a chance with all the melted snow that someone may have come across it. PM if member or post in trail conditions if your...

Here is a few samples of some rare conditions on Bearpen and Vly in the Catskills. A few soft fluffy inches had fallen and with near zero wind all day the snow, which fell off an entire tree to the touch, was just holding tight. Full album here Samples

Klmit Double Diamond Kinetic Vest review The price isn't that much worse than all the other high end gear around. Hard to tell how much buying extra canisters would run you a season. Being completely adjustable is always a huge plus.

From what I have read On September 7th, Travis Wildeboer, from Winter Park, Colorado set out to tackle Vermont's Long Trail in Unsupported fashion going after Demetri "Coup" Coupounas Co-founder of GoLite record which stands at 12 days, 19 hours, and 53 minutes. Per an update from his wife on...

Keep in mind when going out that the Spring Turkey season starts on May 1st which is Saturday. Bright stuff, less red, not a good time of season to ask private land owners to cross their land. Keep in mind your dogs too, a brown or black dog even with (maybe even more so) a redish vest on coming...

I believe the man was on a mission and now gets to sit back and have a few buy him a brew! Congrats Arm, now show me some damn pictures!:cool:

First is a few from little Porter. 1 2 3 4 Hurricane on Sunday 5 6 I planned 2 years ago to finish my 100 highest on Hurricane at full peak foliage. I think I nail it. Made the wait since 99 well worth it. 7 8 Then later in the day I needed a little more and went with a friend to...

On September 7th at 4:35am I (Cory D) started out from the Sewards parking lot at the end of Corey’s road with my good friend Jan Wellford. Our goal was to arrive at Whiteface and Esther roughly 7 days later. Our path at some point would take us over all the summits on the 46er list via one...

According to notices that were up in the Sewards last week crews will be in working on the Blueberry and Ward Brook leantos from the Northern approach of the Sewards during the holiday weekend. They well be replacing any logs, coating and replacing the roofs. So in short they will be unavailable...

I have been saving these two for a perfect fall or winter day for what had felt like a very long time. The idea of getting clear views and walking across the ponds and scrub brush during a winter crust or a peak foliage hike standing next to the massive vertical drop of Wallface had serious sex...
