Since it probably got lost in the middle of the thread, here are the directions to Bearly Live '09 at "Camp Someplace Elle's" in Oxford, Maine Looking forward to sharing our little slice of heaven with all of you again!

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to: Bearly Live ‘08 in Oxford, Maine on July 25-27 Location: MAP 178-182 Hogan Pond Lane, Oxford, Maine (Croteau/Keenan camps) (Directions at bottom of this post) This year’s we’ve moved up to a full fledged mini festival. We are being headlined...

First off, thanks to Unfrozen Caveman for providing us again with such a great spot for a party! I had a fantastic time, am more than a bit tired, enjoyed 420 cubed, the full moon (when the bonfire wasn't outshining it), the bonfire that could heat and power a mid-sized town. The rest is a bit...

Sometimes it takes friends to get you off you a** and get out. This is a report of a winter hike with my friend Gris (aka Grey Knob). I was planning to head down to Florida to visit my folks and Gris suggested that I make it a bit longer to take in Cumberland Island. We've been having this...

Starting to make plans for doing the Moose River Bow Trip during the coming summer. I know quite a few details about it, but have some specific questions: 1) Anyone here done it? 2) Am thinking of buying a new yak for touring, likely a 16-17 footer. Would I be better with that or my trusty 11.5...

Disclaimer: Anyone looking for an exciting recount of amazing feats of strength and daring should go off to read another report. You’ll find none of that here. If not, feel free to continue... After having spent another great night catching up with the gang around a nice fire listening to 80’s...

Steve-O asked me to add this post here as many of you are not on the Paddle Park section of the site: I was in, then out, and now back in, so hopefully that won't keep any of you away! Hope to see you there! Note: contact Steve-o if you have any questions.

Thought I'd drop this in here. Bearly Live Jam night is on 7/28 in Oxford, ME (see trips and events section) and the full moon is 7/30, so it would be a good night to float around while listening to some tunes under a near full moon. Also, the Perseids are Sunday, 8/12 peak this year. Might be...

I'm probably not the best one to put his here (since I've never been to this place!) but in the interest of inviting those of you who have not yet opted for the Paddle Park section of VFTT forums: When: Tuesday, 6/26 launch @6:30PM Where: Cochituate North Lake (Natick) Directions: Take the...

Steve-O and I had been trying to get out for an evening paddle for a few weeks, and we finally got our schedules aligned to head out last night. Fitz showed up a few minutes afte I did, and MichaelJ came by in full "Tour de Concord" cycle gear to say hello. Steve-O arrived shortly after, and we...

This is posted on Paddle Park, but some of you might not subscribe to that forum. Steve-O has been hankering to get out to do a bit of paddling, and we finally got our schedules more or less organized enough to get the kayaks wet. We plan to head out on the Concord River in Concord around 6:00...

Full trip report on Trip reports (duh). Just wanted to add a bit on conditions here: Andro: from Mollidgewock to Seven Islands. Water fairly high (4.5-5 feet at Errol Dam) made for rollers on all class II rapids. Standing wave at Seven Islands very nice! Water extremely cold. The fish aren't...

The gang was getting together up at Barnes Field in NH and I figured that was a great reason to get my a** outdoors for some paddling. Made plans with BoB, HikerAmiga and MtnPa/Mama to head up to the Androscoggin above Milan on Saturday, and the Saco from Bartlett to ? on Sunday, weather...

Gunstock XC Ski, 4/14: Shirts and Skins (hopefully!) Planning to XC ski up Gunstock, NH on climbing skins this Saturday, 4/14. I'll be in the parking lot at 9:30, ready to leave by 10:00. So far, weather forecast is partly cloudy in the upper 40's. After skiing, I will be heading to the FTFC...

As I was driving home yesterday, all I could think about was: I skied today! I wasn't fast, I wasn't strong, I wasn't pretty (well, nothing has changed there), but I was out there. MtnPa and MtnMa had told me over New Year's Day that Gris and his family would be up at the MtnHouse over St...

From the NH Fish and Game: My sympathies go out to his family and friends.

Saw a blurb about a new show starting on the Discovery Channel on 11/14. Here is the info from the WEBSITE : There is also an interactive game on the website that allows you to "join" and expedition to the summit. It is supposed to have some interesting video content.

I'm sitting here trying to find some witty way to write this down, yet nothing seems to come. Today was a big day in my recovery. It will seem small to most, but to me it felt as good as if I climbed Everest (ok, not quite, but close :rolleyes: ). Today was the first view that I earned since my...
