Looks like it was a chilly but beautiful day. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!
Thank you everyone. Of the 7 times I've been to the summit, and despite it being winter, it might have been the best weather I've had on the summit.
On Monday, it was a perfect weather day for my next challenge, which was to summit Mt. Washington by going up Tuckerman Ravine Trail...of some sort. It was a difficult and beautifully intense...
Thank you very much Tim. I knew it was going to be fun. I had my strap-on crampons in my bag, but I decided not pull them out since my brother hasn't picked any up yet. I would have been going up...
Hi Everyone, thank you so much for the congrats, it truly is an awesome accomplishment, and we're just enjoying it and reflecting now as the year comes to a close.
I said the report would be...
What an incredible trip my brother and I embarked on the day after Christmas. With only one hike in the way of my brother's completion of the 48, we set off for the Flume Slide Trail to go across the...

On Saturday, we hiked to Mt. Zealand and Guyot where my brother reached his 39th...
Nice, Looks like you had a great day. These peaks are a great fall hike (even in the middle of the night). We walked out in the morning on the Bunnell Notch Trail, which is very pretty and pleasant....
Hi Kathy, if you would like to enjoy it all over again, feel free to read my trip report on our hike to Moosilauke!

Owen, this was a great hike from the planning, the...
This trip report had me on the edge of my seat! I only have a day to hike this weekend, but I'm thinking about getting the VT 4Ks before the end of the year, so it was interesting to read your...
Hi Donna,
Thanks a bunch. The support has been great, and everyone around me has become intrigued by the feat. I guess I'm a bit taken back by the amount of people proud to see what I've done....
Hi Chud,
There is no camping above treeline unless there is 2ft of snow. For any chance at pitching a tent in a flat spot, you will have to descend quite far into the valley after Washington. You...
Yes Owen, that's what I like to see! Great views on both of your trips. Great different vantage point of Moriah going up the Stony Brook. The Northern Presidentials are so impressive from this ridge....
Snow Miser, thank you very much.
Mark, you are so right, words cannot describe the experience. That is why I don't know how I'm going to put this one into words for you all. There is so much to...
Hi Everyone,
I hope you all had a great weekend. As most of you have been following, I completed the 48 4000-footers on Mt. Monroe Sunday morning, just after sunrise and climbing over the...
On Saturday, we hiked North and Middle Tripyramid. We anticipated a slightly easier hike, but the guide book's description is spot on regarding tough sections with rough footing. We didn't really do...
These pictures are simply amazing, thank you for sharing and your report. I agree Snow Miser, these photos move Knifes Edge up the list for me, that's impressive.
HI Liz, I hope you enjoy it!
Owl's Head was my 41st this past weekend. It was a foggy start and everything was pretty wet most of the morning. The Black Pond Bushwhack in the early morning was...
Karl, I really enjoyed reading this report, as well the replies in this thread. These are trails I've yet to try, and it looks like they pack a punch, so I look forward to those someday. This kind of...
Thank you. I look forward to meeting some of you there for sure.
Mark, this was an awesome hike. 40 is amazing. I almost went for them on my last hike, and I kind of wish I did now since I had so...
This weekend, my brother and I hiked the 3 Bonds. We went out and back from Lincoln Woods. It was a tremendous practice for what is to come, as well as a great experience of the Bonds. Hiking in the...
I really enjoyed writing these last two posts. The beauty of the views I had helped with that I think. I keep looking at those pictures.
I am doing the Bonds this weekend with my brother. I think...
Happy hump day people! My legs are just about un-sore now, and I've put the past weekend's awesome experience into words as I hiked Mt. Carrigain on Saturday afternoon, and then hiked along the...
Yes, what a teaser these photos are. You say a few weeks back, so these pictures are from a June hike out there? I am considering throwing my name in the hat for a few dates next year when the...
Hi Trekker, it looks like you're looking for a quick response. I hiked this trail in the winter. My guess is that you probably have a very small window from being 1/4 mile away from the hut and when...
