Good luck with the new software.

First I want to thank all of the people that have spent many hours and a lot of effort to clear the trails from the effects of Irene. Those workers and volunteers make all hikers lives better. And Christine, you wrote a wonderful article. Thanks Peakbager for calling our attention to it.

Can anyone tell me the condition of the parking lot at the upper works? Also what the condition of the Indian Pass trail is to Summit Rock? And the ladder too? I will be up there Columbus Day week and want to do that part of the trail. Thanks for the information.

Any Mountain In the last two years work has assumed a priority that I never knew it could have. I run a family business and we all have been working hard. Thus my hiking adventures have been a little on the thin side. This year I am planning to a lot more and try to make up for lost time. I...

This is a wonderful place and I am saddened too that it will be eventually sold off. Last fall my wife and I spnt a whole afternoon wandering around the garnet mine. Here is the latest on the auction, which was cancelled...

Another reason that I suspect that the rangers in the smoky mountains take such a radicle stand is because of the woman that was partically eaten by a bear 3 years ago. She went into the park to either hike or trail run with her x-husband. Some hikers found her, before her husband showed up...

A Smile Thank you for putting a smile on my face tonight with this thread. I am sitting here with cosiderable pain in both my knees because I tore the ligaments behind my kneecaps this weekend.:eek: Tomorrow morning,Wednesday, the doctor will tell me when my MRI will be to determing how bad...

I would recomend Mt Major. in Southern NH. Along the edge of lake Winnepesauki (sp?), right off of Rt 11. Has a great loop. Fairly easy. Children can do it. I am doing it Wednesday, April 21, with my grandson, He is 14 and has only done one hike. So I thought it would help peek his interest in...

I must be missing something here... yes I do miss things once in a while ... my wife say I miss a lot but that is another story. :rolleyes: You only carry 35 lbs and you are trying to carry all of it on your hips. You are a small person. My wife and I are small people too. My wife is 5' tall...

Tim, I like your research. You found the comments exactly as I remember them.;) They do speak for themselves. Don't forget the Boyscout was fined $25,000 :eek: but after the hue and cry went out (ie. political pressure) the state dropped the fine. I wonder when a boater, snowmobiler or...

That backhanded comment on the UL readers may not be appreciated by them but still they are the outspoken ones that get their local representitives ears. NH has a lot of very local representation in the state house. Much more so than most state house's. You rightfully pointed that SAR is...

Oh Boy ... Here we go........ This is not to pick on you Craig. OK, I can't hold this back. There is no free "lunch" or rescue. Someone has to pay for it. If any of you read the Union Leader comments about the last rescue of the felow that slid 1500 feet you would realize that the citizens of...

Guess Im Dumb Guess I am dumb... What is going on here. Did tb69wemt do all that typing just for a joke and set up that link for a Ha HA? Hmmmmmmmmmm:o

12 other diseases Two years ago while just walking a part of the Bay Circut Trail in the Hocomock Swamp in the Bridgewaters, Mass, I was bit on my thigh by a tick. When I realized the bugger was there we removed right away. Didn't think much about it until 3 or 4 days later when the proverbial...

Wonderful Job In Writing Hamtero You did a wonderful sympathertic job in writing the story of what happened and how the family feels. My wife and I will keep his family in our prayers. Thank you. Billy V and Rose V

Hmmmm.... Very Creative....Your solution to setting up the tent in the dark was great;) Maybe you could help me with a small problem. I have had some problems with starting my little burner to heat up some water at night for some late night tea. The darkness really makes it hard to find the...

Still 2 feet I just got off the phone with some one that I know at the Adirondack Loj in Lake Placid, NY. The still have two feet of snow.:eek: Still a lot of snow hiking there.

The next stage I am married put two kids through college now I would like to retire some day. I keep all my stuff as long as it is functional.:)

Well....Not really I would do it up to a point. A friend did a treking trip about 10 years ago up to just below the first base camp during the summer months. He said it was one of the best treks he had done. He was about 65 years old when he did it. Ever since then I have wanted to do what he...

Other types of lining... Ok just for some humomorus diversion , to go along with keglining, how about winelining... My wife would love that , Summer fall winter spring lining (Does anyone here remember the Princess by that name?) sololining(someone suggested this) and conversely...
