From Seven Dwarfs across to Haystack Rd and up "Herd Path". Trail unbroken. 12"-15" inches of snow, but fluffy not horrifically difficult. Snow shoes the whole way up and down. Snow actually made for a pleasant ascent and descent. Went around rock cleft to right to avoid, seemed to be...

Unknown Pond to Bunnell Notch loop. UNP was previously broken for a good bit of the way. Lost broken trail at a stream crossing, made our way up the stream, then picked up the actual trail again but didn't see evidence of old snowshoe prints at that point. Sparely blazed in this region. Snow...

Via York Pond out and back. Good snow conditions. Party of five (Chinook, MEB, Drew,Pa) broke trail, but not horribly difficult. Breakable crust, but didn't sink too deep in most place. Some blowdowns but easy to negotiate. Lost trail for short period a couple time, but overall fairly easy...

Meeting 5:30-6:00pm. Will climb until we are satisfactorily tired from our efforts or embarrassed by our lack of talent. Then we'll head to Strange Brew to revel in our accomplishments or drown our sorrow :p Advance olive skewering techniques will be demonstrated.

Found a jacket on Saturday between Rt 302 and Mt Wolf. PM with description and we can arrange for return.

From BF Oct 11th Trip Report. I just about died laughing when I read Bob's Trip report. Except that we were a day later and Unfrozen Caveman with us, that fourth paragraph could have been taken for us....except ours was by design for the most part....I will note here that 3 out of 4 of us have...

Link to Part 1: http://www.vftt.org/forums/showthread.php?t=22119 Thursday April 10 - Headed in the general vicinity of Finsteraarhorn Summit without much expectation in moderate visibility. The original plan was to summit, but we knew there was little chance with the weather. The summit is...

I normally try to take at least one ski mountaineering trip each. This year’s adventure was a guided tour of the Berner Oberland in Switzerland with All Mountain Adventures. A gorgeous location and a good choice given the Euro exchange rate this year, the Swiss Franc was much easier to...
