Sat 5/21 Found a wristwatch between Little Haystack and Liberty Spring Trail. Also found a knife at one of the popular lunch spots on the summit of Flume. Let me know if one of these items might be yours...

Kibo took advantage today of a very favorable Equinox Day forecast to finish her Winter peaks on the summits of Adams (47) and Madison (48). The Observatory had it spot on with temps in the teens and low/no wind. Other than some lumpiness in the vicinity of Valley Way Tentsite, the trails were...

With today being the clear pick of the week weatherwise, Kibo and I decided to break out the Hancocks via Hancock Notch, Cedar Brook, and Hancock Loop Trails. Not much new snow or drifting down low but wore snowshoes car to car. Went Counter-clockwise and ran into first significant drifts...

The forecast for a spectacular Fall?! day was too much to resist, so we decided to cross off the last two peaks on our Fall list and at the same time accompany Kibo on the last summit of her 3X48. The targets of the day would be Madison and Adams utilizing Valley Way both directions. Kibo had...

Is there any beta out there from recent travelers to North Twin Trail? Any difficulty parking at the cul de sac by the bridge this season? I know rumors abound year to year about whether we can still park there... Thank you in advance for any heads up!

In her second season of peakbagging, Kibo was down to just 3 peaks left for her NH48. So with the impending closure of Lincoln Woods, we decided strike off on a Bonds traverse even though the weather forecast was something of a crap shoot. Along with our good friend Summitseeker, who is always...

Peaks: Starr King, Waumbec Trails: Starr King trail Recommended equipment: light traction, snowshoes Having worked fairly hard on the Presidentials the previous day, we slept in Sunday yet still found Starr King trail to be like concrete when we arrived at the trailhead in the mid-morning...

Peaks: Jefferson, Washington Trails: Jewell trail, Gulfside trail, Crawford path, Ammonoosuc Ravine trail Recommended equipment: snowshoes, light traction, sunglasses/goggles, sunscreen We arrived at the cog base just before 7:30 to find the parking lot filling fast but still no problem...
