Heavy duty black dog leash with green/black poop bag holder attached, lost somewhere between Zeacliff and Bondcliff on Saturday 5/23 - most likely fell out of a pack so should be pretty close to the trail - if found please PM me - thanks!

During our traverse yesterday I lost my Garmin GPS on the Carter-Moriah trail some where between Moriah and Carter Dome - if found please email me, I can give a detailed description - much thanks! Hikes with Hannah [email protected]

Via Gorge Brook Trail, Snapper Trail and Carriage Road All of these trails are in very good shape, only three significant blowdowns - one easy step-over and one tricky duck-under on Carriage Road, plus one big leaner on upper Gorge Brook. Just a dusting of snow at the trailhead, increased to...

Via Owl's Head Trail, Martha's Mile and Cherry Mountain Rd. Great hike despite the hot humid weather - we started on route 115 and hike south to Old Cherry Mountain Rd. First mile or so is fairly easy, but after the last stream crossing the trail becomes fairly steep and unrelenting up to...

Out and back via Stony Brook Trail and Carter-Moriah Trail Overall trails in good shape, no major issues to speak of - mud in the usual areas on the ridge but easily navigated around. Bugs didn't make an appearance until the descent - breezy enough on the ridge to keep them away, but they were...

Via Rt. 16, Camp Dodge cut-through, Imp Trail, North Carter Trail, Carter-Moriah Trail, Nineteen Mile Brook Trail, Wildcat Ridge Trail, Polecat ski trail What a great day to do this traverse for the first time. Patchy ice started around 4000ft on North Carter Trail, on and off to the junction...

Via Dicey's Mill Trail and Rollins Trail We did an out and back from Dicey's Mill to avoid the cliffs on Blueberry Ledge Trail. Started out barebooting, switched to micros at the big crossing, then to snowshoes at the start of Rollins and wore those almost all the way back to the trailhead...

Via herd paths, North Twin Trail, North Twin Spur, Twinway, Frost Trail, Garfield Ridge Trail, Gale River Trail, Gale River Road and Beaver Brook XC Ski Trails. Snowshoes car to car today and they were definitely needed. Snowing at a good clip when we left the end of Little River Rd, with 3-4"...

Tecumseh via Mt. Tecumseh Trail from ski area parking lot Crusty snow down low with 3-6" fluffy snow underneath, bit more snow higher up with a few inches of new fluffy snow on top of the crust. Water crossing just past the trailhead still open but easy to cross, all others snowbridged...

Via Livermore Trail, Scaur Ridge Trail, Pine Bend Brook Trail and Mt. Tripyramid Trail Fresh dusting of 1-2" of fluffy powder at the start, maybe 2-3" higher up with a bit of drifting on Pine Bend Brook Trail. Great snowshoe track along all trails that we helped consolidate a bit more - thanks...

Trail started out with crusty ice with a few inches of packed powder, increasing to 4-6" in the glades and 8-12" up above the outlook. A bit of wind above the outlook, maybe 15-20mph at the summit. No sun but good views, with only Lafayette and Lincoln in the clouds. Snow lower down became a...

Via Stony Brook Trail and Carter-Moriah Trail Awesome day for Moriah - started with a few inches of crusty snow at the bottom, increasing to 8-10" of fluffier stuff in spots on the ridge, but like other peaks, not nearly enough for snowshoes. Overall trails in good shape - a few blowdowns on...

Via Polecat Ski Trail and Wildcat Ridge Trail Good day to finally get to the Cats. Trails in good shape except WRT between D and C peaks in need of some thorough brushing. Barebooted the first half mile up the slopes, then put on the microspikes and left them on until about half a mile after...

Trails: Camp Dodge shortcut, Imp Trail, North Carter Trail, Carter-Moriah Trail, 19 Mile Brook Trail With the long weekend and forecast for gusty winds up high, we opted for a hike in the more somewhat sheltered Carter Range. This is one of our less frequently hiked areas, and it ended up...

Trails: Old Bridle Path, Greenleaf Trail, Franconia Ridge Trail, Liberty Spring Trail, Basin bushwhack What a great day to hike the entire ridge - another warm one for sure, but blue skies and views in every direction. All trails were in good shape, no major issues to speak of. Hannah had a...

Trails: The Direttissima, Glen Boulder Trail, Davis Path, Isolation summit spur, Boott Spur Trail, Boott Spur Link, Tuckerman Ravine Trail First time ever for good weather on an Isolation hike. All trails in relatively good shape - a few tight places in the upper scrub on Glen Boulder Trail...

Finally got to hike Carrigain via Signal Ridge Trail, Carrigain Notch Trail and Desolation Trail. Great alternative route through some lesser used trails and some very scenic areas, particularly Carrigain Notch Trail between the height of land and the junction with Desolation Trail. There were...

Hiked Moriah via Rattle River Trail, Kenduskeag Trail and Carter-Moriah Trail This ended up being last minute plan B - had grand plans of a loop with Webster Cliff and Dry River Trails, but found out early this morning that Dry River Trail is closed ... Rattle River up to the shelter is in...

Decided to take a longer more scenic loop to the Willey Range on Sunday. Started from Zealand Trailhead, around Ethan Pond Trail, up and over Willey Range Trail and Mt. Tom Spur, then out on AZ and Zealand Trails. Most of the trails were in very good shape - beginning of S-bridge on Zealand...

Trail work and loop hike via Webster-Jackson Trail, Webster Cliff Trail and Crawford Path. All trails in pretty good shape, no major issues. Lots of people and trail dogs out enjoying the good weather and lovely views. Hannah had a good day on a loop she knows well - more water between the...
