I'm taking my son to the 'Daks this weekend with the intent of a long-ish day above tree line. I'm leaning towards Wright, Algonquin & Iroquois then down to lake Colden and back to Loj. Any alternative suggestions that will give us plenty of time above tree line? Thanks,

Does everyone notice how shoe quality has declined over the last 20 years? The last few years especially I have experienced lots of sole delaminations and am struggling to do a quality repair job. Shoe Goo has disappointed me on large scale repairs because it just doesn't bond well enough...

I've read most of the posts on here about NE mtn lions and am convinced there are lots of sighting. My neighbor just spotted one the other day. She said fish & wildlife was not excited about it, acted like it was a normal event. But here's the question I can't answer is - where are the...

6" in my yard and still coming. Let the season begin.

I have 3 hours to enjoy tomorrow morning while traveling east on RT 2. Any suggestions of good hikes? Summits preferred. Thanks in advance

I'm working several days per week in the big city of Los Burlington and want to bring my kayak up for evening paddles. Any suggestions on how I secure it to my car so it doesn't get stolen? Also, I plan to wrap my bike to my rack with a cable and lock - any more elegant methods out there...

I'll be working in Burlington quite a bit over the next few months and looking for some night-time adventures. I live in SoVT so don't really know the area well. Skinning and skiing the local resorts is obvious. I'm sure Mansfield and Camelback have some nice night time views of the city and...

Hey folks, looking for some help. I posted on NEice and a few others looking for advice and came up empty handed, any of you climbers out there have experience growing ice? I have a 100' dead vertical quarry wall with a natural spring nearby, and 100' of tubing already in place. My issue...

I want to go up Trap Dike and tried last summer but it was VERY wet and I lost my nerve about 1/2 up the waterfall. Was that about the crux - or where is the crux? I'm thinking of going back with a rope and a handful of stoppers and giving myself a belay when needed. I get the sense that...

I will be working in the Amherst area quite a bit the next few months - any suggestions for hikes, swimming holes, climbing areas, etc?

I fell in love with Via Feratta's in the Dolomites and thought this was pretty cool. Well that, and I just love looking at that Mexican limestone. http://www.rockclimbing.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=2304897;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;page=unread#unread

Anyone know if there is still a shelter about 4 miles in - coming from the south side of Indian Pass? I remember from many years ago and hoping to go visit wallface in the next week or so. Thanks!

Several new trees down across the trail. It was a monsoon up there today - but I had my umbrella.

This pertains to the cliff near Wallingford, VT. So, I've done five different routes up the main face of White Rocks. A few with some unroped low class 5 moves and always traverse out before the more interesting terrain. The other day I found an old sling where someone likely rapp'ed out...

I've heard rumors about a lean-to and campground at Eagle Lake (near Ticonderoga) and want to head out there with my wife and 3 young kids. Can anyone give me some information on the where and how? Thanks, Jeff

Rt 7 in Wallingford last weekend in July. ID them and they're yours. If not, they go to my kids.

I finally did a long pondered hike loop at White Rocks near Wallingford, VT. I'm hooked. Approach the bottom via trail, scramble up the boulder field, class 3 scrambling up the face direct, then hit the summit trail, connect to the AT and back down to the parking lot. About 2 hours of good...
