    Brutus – In Memoriam, 2000-2011

    He stole my heart! February 26th, 2004! It was love at first sight. The humans that tagged along were pretty good company too! We had many happy hikes together, including this one.

    I know this is a long shot, but just wanted to give the climbing community a heads up.

Many thanks...

    Monadnock via Pumpelly Trail -- 3/25/06

    Michelle, It looks totally different than his pics - in just 4 days. Was on White Dot yesterday and it was nice and dry - Pumpelly may be a little more wet/icy in isolated spots because of it's northern exposure! Have funnnnn!!!!

    Leadership

    Another great read...... is Outdoor Leadership by John Graham - you can order it on amazon or through a local bookstore. I tend to run more conservatively like zero-g just described but it also depends on which mountain. A quick trip up Monadnock with one friend is different than the glaciers...

    Atlas 1025 snowshoes

    Snow on your back.... is from the spring loaded binding - the same technology that is supposed to give you the springy feeling also kicks up a bit of snow.

    Break-ins at Rte 302 Zealand Lot

    [QUOTE=Kevin Rooney A friend of mine had a window broken on a winter day hike to Isolation 2 or 3 years ago. Nothing stolen, just the window smashed. I remember that 3 hour ride home all too well. Just me and the fleece blanket at 70mph - driver's window of course.

    AMC Wilderness First Aid?

    Have taken WFA and WFR with SOLO - are they teaching it for AMC? If you are going to be out on the trails, it's good info to have, you need to add your own common sense.

    AT in Maine: 100-Mile Wilderness trip

    very cool.... very cool trip report indeed. Isn't it interesting how a list of things to be happy/grateful for can pull you out of a funk - I am impressed, not too many people like being in the rain for a day never mind several!

    Nice! Bob, I went up Pumpelly yesterday down White Dot to Smith Connector to Red Dot and back down Pumpelly - saw your trail report and wondered how you did that, I too need to venture to the other side! Andrew the Ranger told me there are 36 miles of trails - enough to keep you busy for the...
