Hi Bob - No, I didn't injure myself too bad. One fall got my ankle feeling a bit funny, but my boots saved it I think. The second onto ledge hurt my tailbone a little and hurt my wrist a bit. I have...

Hi Everyone,

My buddy, Alex, and I headed up to Jackson this past Monday to tackle the Doubleheads. I had heard they were steep, but really had not expected them to be as steep as they were. It...

Hi Everyone,

I hope you guys don't mind me posting this here. It's from an outing to Stratham Hill Park, not a mountain, but definitely memorable. My daughter hiked up the hill on her own,...

Hi Everyone,

My wife and I were thinking of doing a small hike this weekend and have narrowed it down to Belknap since we haven't explored many mountains on that range except the obvious (Major)....

Hi Donna - I agree. It's been a long time for Jill and I and was great to get some fresh air! Hope we can make this an every weekend "thing" until next winter! I hope you and Mike are doing well!

Hi Everyone,

It's been a long time since I've posted last because we haven't been in the woods recently. We decided to get out yesterday and checked out the Wiggin Farm - Tuttle Swamp Conservation...

Hi Everyone,

It's been a while since I've posted due to, well, not hiking much lately. We finally got up to the mountains at the end of May (I know, I know, it's now the end of June) and wanted to...

Hi Bob,

I think Owen's opinion above is pretty spot on. I would only add that when Owen says "in shape", he doesn't mean you're just in physically good shape. He means you should be in good...

I'm feeling summer coming on...72!

Hi Everyone,

I brought my family to the trails at the Portsmouth Urban Forestry Center this weekend. It was beautiful weather and a new place to explore. The trek combines salt marshes, forest,...

Hi Everyone!

I was able to hangout with an old friend this past Thursday and decided to hike in Pawtuckaway. We did a pretty big loop, going over North and South Mountains. The skies were blue and...

Owen,

Great job!!! I give you guys a ton of credit for picking the slide in these conditions. I've done it in the fall and that was tough enough for me. I'm sure it was a tough and exhausting trek...

Thanks everyone!

Bob - Someone mentioned in another forum that the Eastern Bluebirds sticking around until this time is not too uncommon. I'm sure with the warmer weather we've had, it probably...

Hi Everyone,

I stopped by a small parking area near my house the other day to find that it was a actually a small conservation area called the Lamprey River Floodplain. There was a short trail,...

Dan,

Wow! Congrats to your brother!

This hike sounds epic! To start the Ridge from the Flume Slide in this weather is an awesome feat in itself! That approach to the Flume summit does look...

Hi KathyC - Thanks! I believe they are mushrooms. But someone with more information on the matter may correct me on that one.

Hi Bob - Thanks! I couldn't agree with you more!

Hi Everyone,

Hope everyone had a great holiday season. I have the week off, so I'm hoping to get out a bunch. I started off yesterday by visiting a few local locations to me (seacoast are of NH)....

Glad Mr. Blue made it through the hike okay! Kevin, you amaze me with the small things you pick out to photograph...things that most will miss on the trail. Your small icicles on the on the mossy...

Wow, you certainly saw a ton of wildlife! That would be pretty cool if it was a lynx. From what I've heard, they are pretty rare in New England. I heard they just confirmed lynx living in New...

I can definitely say that I have been checking this forum less often these days, just due to the activity level here. It is noticeably down. I'm certainly on FB a lot but it has never been a...

Hey Mark,

Wow, great trip report and pics! Looks like a beautiful day in the mountains. I'm convinced you only hit the Willy range on gorgeous days, based on your previous Avalon shots from a few...

Hi Everyone,

I headed up to the Bartlett area this past weekend and hit Mount Stanton and Mount Pickering. My main motivation to get up there was to get good views of Iron Mountain (some of you...

Thanks Bob, I appreciate it! I love the history of these mountains. I really wish I knew more about them. I plan on doing another history post again soon. I'll post it when ready!

Karl

Hi Everyone,

Iron Mountain has always been one of my favorite mountains. I find it to be really intriguing because it is so rich in history. I did some research on the mountain and wrote up a...

Hi Tim,

I have a picture of the mountains in proximity to downtown Manchester. It seems they are north of the city by view. That would put them at Northeast I think. I think they're too high to be...
