Thank you, Looking forward to climbing Killington!

Is Wheelerville road open in winter? Can I get to Bucklin trail?

Took Ammonoosuc Ravine to Crawford, then Jewel trail on the way down. Started hiking around 8:30 am. At the first trail sign I was putting my Kooltie in a gray jar filled with water. Unfortunately I forgot to take it with me and its still there on top of the trail sign (anyone finds it send me...

congrats! We have followed your trip reports and are amazed at your accomplishments. Like averagejoe said, start writing a book and looking for publishers. Maybe Alex can become rich, retire at an exceptionally early age and hike for the rest of her life!:D...

Ridgewalker ,Marty,and Rols- I was one of the people you met. Roland my hiking partner of~25 years and I met you when you were about 3/4 of the way out. What a funny day. Around every corner we would meet someone from VFFT. Some of the others were Blue and also LRiz who was on her second hike...

Many thanks to all of you who broke out these trails after the big snowfall of last week. It's amazing to see the difference in snow depth just between Lincoln and the Greeley Pds Trailhead. Many blowdowns. Lots of duck unders, crawl unders,and face slappers:eek: especially between the two...

Started from Basin parking lot, bushwhack to Liberty Spring Trail, and Franconia Ridge Trail to Liberty and Flume. Absolutely gorgeous day - the last few Saturdays have been great. Today there were a few early morning clouds, but they soon disappeared.Barebooted to the tentsites then put on...

Took Hancock Notch, Cedar Brook , Hancock Loop Trails. Perfect clear day and trails were as if they were cleared with a snow blower. Bare booted to beginning of North Loop then used crampons the rest of the way. Coming down from South peak I was glad I had the crampons because without them...

Went up the usual way-Signal Ridge Trail, Carrigan Notch Trail to boulder in the trail and bushwack up. Climbed over, under and around many blowdowns. Many faint trails down low. The herdpath is well defined and fairly easy to follow after about halfway up. Rock field is loose and slippery...

Late post. We took Pine Bend Brook trail to North Tripyramid. We skipped going to South Tripyramid because of a late start and early sundown. About 1/4 an inch of snow made it a little slick in spots. Beautiful day low 30's, some good views. It was fun trying out the new headlamps on the way down.

AT from CVR to South Crocker and herd path to Redington and back. Skipped Crocker as it was getting late and starting to fog in upon my return to South Crocker. Only good views were late morning from talus fields towards the Bigalows. CV Road bridges require care in driving over. I have a...

Welch-Dickey Loop Trail Today I got a late start around 1:30 pm. Not the best time of day to start a hike but it's not going to stop me. The trail was nice and not very hard. Towards the top of Mt Welch the rock ledges were a bit slippery and caused some falls:mad:. After the top of Welch I...

Went up Goose Eye Trail . The steep rock scramble near the top is now second option to the path bypassing it which was a good thing because there was a little snow and ice lingering and I didn't want to fall and not get up as I was solo.:eek:. Great VFTT except Presidentials were clouded in...

Trail taken: Edmans path. Started at 11:30 am. It was raining the until we got up about a thousand feet. Some parts were slippery on the way up. We saw lots of people that had turned back because of the weather. Once we got above treeline there was so much wind it was hard to move. I was...

Its taken me 2 years to climb this mountain. Two times in winter I had to turn back because of bad conditions. We were driving trying to find camping spots and everything was full because of the holiday. We decided to camp off trail on Mt Potash. We climbed the Mountain and got to the top around...

East Osceola wouldnt be a bad hike for rainy days, although there is a cliff with a real nice view. Tecumseh would be good but there is somewhat of a view on top.

There is always a minority that ruins it for the majority. I hope they do something soon to get things hike-able again.

Cant really predict. It depends on elevation, and the weather. Usually there is some nice foliage in October.

Its not as bad as you may think. Burning wood puts co2 captured in the tree back into the air. But when you drive your putting a lot of new co2 into the air.
