I have to say I smiled myself when I saw this. My little one is just about the same age (2 in July) and we took her on her first hike on her own two feet a month or so ago. I too was so proud of her...

Yes, it was nice not to have those thought of "time" and how far we were etc along the way. Yeah, you keep a mental note of how far you've been and how far you have to go, but it was nice to not...
Sad thing is that I take tons of photos, and do a lot of photography on the side, so I really should post pics more often with my TR's. My computer is clogged with thousands of photos though, so the...
P.S. This is number 44 for me! We'll get one more for me in the winter, then only 3 more to finish the list next year!
I don't see a lot of action on this forum anymore, but thought I'd post in case anyone still looks here for info :)
The original plan was to do the Twins, but the weather wasn't looking fantastic...
I don't remember any blowdowns, but that could be that hiker selective memory thing working for me! If there are any, they weren't bad, but thank you for taking such good care of the trail. I...
I'll spare you a long trip report on this one, and just say that if anyone is looking for a nice foliage hike this fall, Osseo Trail up to Flume would be a great one to take on. The Osseo trail is...
Did this hike finally last weekend, and your report was a great description to go on! I too felt queezy on W Bond, but didn't lose my cookies. It passed (thankfully), although we didn't have humid...
Closing in on the end of the list, we've been doing a lot of long, multiple peak hikes this year. So it seemed like a good time to tackle The Wildcats and throw in Carter Dome while we were at it. We...
I know this has probably been covered before, but I"m looking for suggestions of what foods would be best to bring along on a one day transverse of the Bonds? I tend to load up too much on...
It's funny, I was just saying on our last hike that I'd like to add up the miles I've put into hiking all the peaks. I was going to include an overall number, as well as how many actual mountians we...
Congratulations on finishing the list! And the hike!! At least you have a good story to go along with your last peaks! Thank you so much for posting the report- we are doing the Bonds in August, and...
Karl, thanks for the report! I feel your pain... I recently took my daughter, who will be 1 year in about 10 days, up to Arethusa Falls. I have never felt more out of shape! AND I have been hiking my...
THanks for this post.. I've been putting of The Wildcats since I've heard such great things about it...A steep, rocky, long slog. We are considering adding Carter Dome, since we apparently like to...
Thanks for the photos. We did this hike on Saturday, but we went the other way, and didn't attempt Carter Dome! Sounds like when I do though, I might get it out of the way first. I totally missed the...
Guess that means I better hurry up and find the last 15 summits before those signs wear out as well!! You could tell the Puncheons were covering areas that would need them, it's just been so dry that...
We finally settled on hiking Middle and South Carter, up the Imp and down 19 MBT, using the Camp Dodge cutoff. I had initially thought about doing the Bushwack from the Imp trail, over to 19MBT, but...
That's great! Thanks for the insight. Sounds like 19 MBT will be a nice decent at the end of the day. And the flowers are always a nice touch ; ) Thanks again for the info. I can read all the trail...
Nice! A fresh perspective! Did you do the clockwise loop starting at Camp Dodge and coming back down 19 MBT? We were questioning how many water crossings there are and if they were difficult, seeing...
Thank you for both of the maps. I was looking at a satellite image map (like the one above) and could easily see the 'old road'. It looked like it ended in a clearing, but now that I look at the one...
THANK YOU! Sounds totally do-able. I'm not compass savvy, but am going to practice some this week : ) Thanks for the map, this is what I was thinking, just wasn't sure if I wanna try it at the end,...
Advise please! We are looking to do the Carters next weekend. We are looking at doing an out and back, starting on the 19 mile brook tr. We could do the loop coming out on the Imp Tr, but not looking...
Kathy, I did this hike myself, although it was in the winter. Nice little loop! If you want a couple of other nice 'trainers' to do, Mt Willard is nice and not that long and the view into Crawford...
Whiteface and Passaconaway
May 19,2012
With a beautiful day on the horizon, we headed north to battle the ledges on Whiteface. Passaconaway was just there, so we figured we might as well do...
It was actually much less strenuous than I would have thought. Some hikes I go into thinking they will be difficult, and they pleasantly surprise me : ) This was one of those.
