    Crockers & Redington 10/21/12

    Got an early start and did a loop hike getting these three. I went up from Caribou Road, and did South Crocker, and then Crocker. I took the herd path over to Redington, and then went down the logging roads. The entire route from the top of South Crocker to the bottom of Caribou Road is marked...

    Dix Range 10/10/11

    I went to the Dix Range on Monday. It was a great fall day for hiking. My goal for the day was to go up Macomb, and take it from there. I wanted to do Macomb, South Dix, East Dix, and Hough. However I started to get a cold saturday night. Ugh. I ended up doing Macomb, South Dix, and East Dix...

    Santanoni Range 08/23/11

    Thanks guys. I think I'll do the Dix Range first, then save Allen for last. When the time comes, maybe I'll ask for some tips.

    Santanoni Range 08/23/11

    I did Santanoni, Panther, and Couchsacraga yesterday. First time in that area. I wasn't expecting a fun time. The weather forecast said it was going to be sunny. It appeared that way in the morning. However the tops of Santanoni and Panther were still in the fog for quite some time...

    Seymour 7/06/11

    So I went from the Mt. Seward trailhead off Corey's Road. The trail is generally level all the way up to the start of the herd path. That being said, it's still a mud festival in a lot of spots until the last .8 miles until the Ward Brook lean-to, where the trail is wide, and smooth walking...

    Bigelow fire tower is no more

    So here's what I discovered when I went up there. What's left of the tower. It looks terrible now. There's still glass and boards lying around there. http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f381/tlpnj/IMG_3537.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f381/tlpnj/IMG_3533.jpg

    Bigelow Mountain 05/31/11

    Okay I found out what happened to the tower. I'll put the pictures in a thread that was started on what happened to the tower. Case closed I guess for me.

    Bigelow Mountain 05/31/11

    So I went and hiked up Bigelow Mountain. I took the Firewarden's trail up to the col, and went up Avery Peak first. The firetower was destroyed. It was hit by lightning? There was blown out glass and boards everywhere. It must have been recent? Looks like a bomb hit it. Curious as to know what...

    Algonquin & Iroquois 08/08/10

    Well I finally got around to Iroquois. I went over Algonquin to get there from the Loj. I returned the same way. I've done Algonquin before, and remember having some problems because the rock slabs were wet. When everything is dry, this is a way more easier hike, as was the conditions Sunday. It...

    Mt. Marshall 08/01/10

    I went in from the Upper Works, and took the herd path before the Colden Dam. The path for the most part you could follow. There was a couple of spots that it wasn't so obvious, and you had to take some time, but it can be figured out without much trouble. It was pretty mud in some spots, but...

    Killington 07/22/10

    I took the Bucklin Trail. It's short, kinda steep towards the end. This trail has parts of the forest trying to take it back. It rained the day before, so I got wet. No big deal. It's something to know if you do this trail, and it has rained recently. There were no views to be had, as the summit...

    Basin & Saddleback 05/25/10

    Wow, this was a tough one. I took the Phelps Trail, to the Shorey Short Cut, to the Range Trail, and back on the Orebed Trail to the Phelps. The trails are all clear. That being said, it was quite muddy in the cols. The bugs attacked me once, but left me alone after I put the bug spray on. The...

    Rocky Peak Ridge 05/16/10

    I saw someone posted something on Giant for yesterday. That was the way I took to RPR. The trail was slick in some places going up Giant, and muddy in some spots along the way to RPR. But other than that, it was a good day to be hiking in the Daks. I started the day at 07:09, and was finished by...

    Mt. Chocorua 05/11/10

    It was a great day for hiking in the Whites. The forecast said it was going to be a clear day in the morning, so I decided to go to Chocorua, to take in it's great views. The trail is snow free all the way to the top. Granted there's a couple of spots where there was some leftover snow, but it...
