    Hiker dies on Jewell Trail.

    First, thoughts and prayers to his family. Can't find any news link at the moment. Just a link to The Pemi Search & Rescue FB page. By what I'm reading, he must have been pretty close to the top of the Jewell Trail were he would have been exposed. They are talking a lot about the weather...

    Garmin GPS Handhelds

    I have CRS bad so they'll be a lot of "don't remember". :cool: I've put this in the search bar but can't find what I'm looking for. Within the past 2 years I believe, someone mentioned something about an update of some sort that would effect GPS units. I think it was Garmin specific but could...

    Unofficial Crossings Bypass, North Twin Trail???

    A couple weeks ago there was talk about the old fire wardens trail to Hale. I was unable to make but the group I'm usually with for FOT48 had S. Twin. They mention there were some logs blocking the bypass route. Like you typically see when a herd path tends to show up on trails so they did the...

    Glacier National Park. And others out west.

    I'm in the early stages on planning an extended trip next summer. The rough plan so far is to head to GNP first. Then maybe, going to CA and Yosemite. Not sure about that but then the general idea is to work my way south to Texas where 2 of my kids live. The return will most likely be basically...

    AT Through Hiker Lost and Site?

    I'll post this here and the mods can move it if need be. Before I do a ton of Googling, is there one web-site that through hikers go to look for lost items? I was descending Beaver Brook Trail yesterday and a SoBo (reasonably sure, had the look and smell :eek:) passed me. About 5-10 minutes...

    NE100 in winter ???

    I realize winter is over. My goal is not to do them in winter. I'm just looking for info. from those who've done them in winter in regards to now. My main question is about Dorset since I may head there tomorrow. Can I assume the roads to the Dorset Mtn Trail are plowed since it looks like a...

    Jewell Trail starting at the Cog Railroad.

    Have not seen this anywhere so I figured I'd put it out. A Friend of mine hiked Washington on 7/9. Up the Ammo., down Jewell. Apparently the bridge at the Cog is gone again. He was talking with a Cog employee who said they rebuilt the last one but do not plan on doing it again. Disclaimer...

    Liberty / Bolles trail head.

    I'm not sure what the name of the road is, Paugus I believe. The road to the Liberty trail head. Is that gated or just not plowed in winter? Either way, does anyone have any knowledge whether or not those trails are accessable? Without a road walk. ;) Thanks

    Ellen/Abraham...VT

    Planning on doing these 2 Saturday. We could do 2 cars but may opt for an out and back. Mohammed's site has been a great resource for me. I just (without a map handy) can't see how an out and back can have less elev. gain than a traverse. 1600' vs 2300'. Re-climbing everything would suggest it...

    Killington via the Bucklin Trail in winter

    Tried doing some quick online research(don't have a VT hiking guide) about this route in winter and didn't come about with much. Best I got was on Trails.com giving the numbers and description of this route but in seasons says, Spring, Summer, Fall. So, does anyone know if the Bucklin Trail is...

    Mittersill Mtn. Trail?

    Did a quick real quick search but found nothing. It seems I read something about the new hiking trail to Mittersill was closed shortly, (year or so) after opening. Primarily because of ski trail reconstruction for the US ski team training? I'm pretty close right now so personally checking it out...

    East Branch / Slippery Brook Roads ?

    The WMNF roads page list these as reconstruction beginning 2014, not to be opened until 2015. Does anyone know where they may be at with this at this time? Thanks
