It could be both, chi com gear is usually sold by a distributor in China that outsources actual production to subs. The subs usually make sure the first models are built well with some quality...
Thanks, we located a shuttle firm and it comes out to around $200 to $250 for a drop off and pickup for one person. I had booked for four, but it was looking like I might be solo but now may be 2 to...
Late September especially on weekends are quite busy on weekends due to leaf season. If the weather is marginal there will be last minute openings as people cancel reservations.
The huts do not...
Looks like chinese lookalike gear hiding behind a US address. The folding utensils are heavy, most folks live with lexan spoons for backpacking. The pots are probably okay, many folks just bite the...
The major USFS lots tend to be plowed within 24 hours of major snow storm. The state lots like Lafayette place, Appalachia and 19 mile brook are also plowed within 24 hours of storm. The national...
Eight Days out and the forecast actually looks clear in Northern NH on the 8th. Of course we are in for three day Northeaster snow/rain event wednesday, thursday, friday. The one we had last week...
A reminder that hut stays in August and September are difficult without reservations sooner than later. Weekends are usually booked solid, weekdays somewhat less so. If the weather is crappy, folks...
BTW, Not sure of VT snow totals but NH and ME just got a big snow dump 12 plus inches.
I have used glucosamine/chronditin/MSM on occasion over the years and I feel it does work but its a long term thing. After my broken ankle I took it religiously for at least a year.
There is...
That was painless, I logged on before my allotted time, and all my choices were available. I picked my sites, waited from my official log in time and clicked order. A bit more info and a credit card...
The state of Vermont and the GMC officially close the trails during mud season and April is mud season. Do the trail sand yourself a favor and go elsewhere. April in the Whites next door is generally...
BTW, Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument is technically open to foot traffic during the eclipse. The big issue at KWW is finding a viewpoint as its mostly forest....
I got skunked on the lottery last year but ended up doing 6 nights on the PCT just north of there as a backup plan.
Thanks, its a start. When I did a stretch of the PCT trail this past fall, many of the sites had ponds and lakes.
I will be getting access to the reservation site next week. Setting up lots of itinerary's to make sure I get a trip set up, anyone have any "gotta stay there" or better to hike past places?
I think the one in the Ebay listing is just a faded cover. The ones I have are green A bit less green than the green used on whiteblaze as a background. Its got a velour (fuzzy) finish. I have no...
A fairly rare 1938 Guide to the Appalachian Trail in Maine is up on Ebay. It is the 3rd edition which is actually the first edition that has the entire AT in Maine route. The prior second edition...
That explains a lot ;)
Same options as before, there is no public transportation to Bethel from Portland. The closest bus is in Gorham NH which is about 40 miles from Grafton Notch. The Portland Jetport, taking the...
My guess the flights listed for the big carriers are code share flights with Cape Air, a small commuter airline with 9 seat planes (the 9th seat is the co pilots seat).
Pretty simple, there is no train or bus service in Maine with the exception of the I 95 Corridor and even then the train service only runs from the NH border to Brunswick along the coast. your...
FYI. Baxter State Park is definitely closed and they have put out a warning on the website. April 8th is typically mud season in Maine. Do not plan on driving on any private gravel roads as they may...
But the hiker would not get to stay in comfy cabin with beds and private baths at the AMC camps ;)
Not sure these days but 20 years ago, there were several youth programs affiliated with various...
Not my cup of tea, but if someone has the cash and wants to knock off part of the 100 mile wilderness and stay in bed every night, here is your chance,
