    Condolences to the family and friends, very sad. RIP

    Colorado Trail and Continental Divide Trail

    I'll second that. I moved out to Colorado last fall from the Adirondacks and when hiking in the 'dacks or the Whites and you gain the summit and look into the horizon, you can on a clear day seem a very large percentage of the higher mountains. Every single time I climb out here and look into...

    Congrats to the both of you!! What a great accomplishment and I can only imagine all the memories and good times along the way. I trust you found a brewery or two to celebrate in? :D

    RIP Stubiscuit

    I think an in memorandum thread to remember those in our community who have passed on would be a nice way to remember those who have left us.

    RIP Stubiscuit

    (I did a search and didn't see a post for this already so if so please forgive me.) Stu Delman or Stubiscuit passed away earlier this month from his battle with brain cancer. I didn't know him well but through a random meeting on top of Algonquin one sunny June day several years ago, we...

    Adirondacks backpacking/peakbagging, 9/20-9/24

    Sounds like a fun trip. I always love my time in the Adirondacks; I did the Giant RPR traverse a couple weekends ago, one of my favorites.

    Driving cross country, looking for route suggestions for views

    I like the idea of going far north, just don't think I'd have time to renue my passport for that to be an option; also not sure how much of a hastle taking a trailer through customs would be. I may look into going up to the UP and over that way, then dip down.

    Driving cross country, looking for route suggestions for views

    Great feedback, thanks! I'll definately look into that. I was planning on trying to avoid the Thruway, I'd like to keep the drive as scenic as possible, without getting to messy of a drive given the fact that I'll be towing a trailer.

    Driving cross country, looking for route suggestions for views

    Glad I found this thread; I am planning on moving out to Colorado in a few weeks and am driving out and towing a trailer. I also was looking for the most scenic option and have pretty much decided on getting around Chicago then going up to 90 and through the Badlands, over to Wyoming and then...

    Cannon in the clouds {6.3.12}

    Date: Sunday 6.3.12 Trail: Kinsman Ridge, out and back This was the second day of hiking for what was looking to be a wash-out but again we were pleasantly surprised. There was a light rain when we reached the trailhead around 8:30am and we had a scattered shower once or twice throughout...
