I've climbed most of the mountains in the area on the AT, but today I took a side trip to the east side of the Housatonic where the AT once ran before its relocation. Barrack Mtn has interested me for years do to the rock outcropping on its west side (Lookout Point) that's highly visible from...

Has anybody ever compiled a list of all peaks with trails? What about a list of those worth climbing? I've spent a lot of time looking over maps and have frequently wondered this. I've always liked the range (can you tell?), but I'm usually confined to the southern end of it. I'm hoping to...

I've mentioned a couple of times on here that I came down with a nasty case of ehrlichiosis over this past summer. It really did a number on me. As such, I went a record 182 days without climbing a mountain. My last was Waumbeck back in July just as the severe symptoms were beginning. Last...

I've driven by Canaan Mtn dozens if not hundreds of times and have a couple of questions about it. 1: Is there a trail on it? I've actually done a lot of research and, as near as I can tell, there at least used to be a trail leading to the summit from the Beckley Furnace in the early 20th...

I know there are a couple of lyme disease threads in the first few pages of the forum, but I've read them and I'd like to ask a few questions since many of you seem to have direct experience with the subject. Let me preface by saying that I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning. Since...

OK, now before you all stone me to death at the mere suggestion of not climbing down a mountain, hear me out. :p I'm taking the GF up to NH for her birthday. She's not much of the hiking type. However, I'm pretty sure that I can get her to tackle Wildcat with the promise of a ride on their...

I'm thinking of taking the GF kayaking for her birthday in July. Umbagog is an area that I've never been able to explore, but seems really nice, so that's the current plan (though I'm open to any suggestions for other possible destinations.) I've done some searching, but I can't find any info...

I've been lurking here for a long time and had no idea that this subforum even existed until I got an account. :p Here are a few things I shot last year. If you've ever run into somebody in the Whites with a red REI pack with a tripod lashed to it, that was probably me. C&C welcome. King...

I've never done it before (summer or winter) and would like to give it a shot within the next few weeks. It'll probably be very early on a Monday morning. Is it safe to assume that it would be broken out over any given weekend in the event of fresh snow?
