Hiking

Mt Passaconaway was a great hike

October 2, 2007

After a series of busy days, I am back at it finally. I have been unable to post anything since Friday because I was busy hiking, going to the fair, and even getting a little work done. Friday night, my friends from CT Dave and his wife Tara came up for a Saturday hike up [...]

Pizza night

September 28, 2007

We have some friends coming up this evening – tomorrow we are hiking up 4043 foot Mt Passaconaway. Its about 4.6 miles from trail head to summit so it will be considerably longer than our first 4000 foot club hike but most of the trail is much less of an incline (until the last third [...]

Made it in record time

September 23, 2007

In theory

September 22, 2007

In theory, tomorrow morning I am going to get up at the butt-crack of dawn to go hiking. This isn’t the big trip my friend and I are going on at the end of the month – I just got new hiking boots and need to break them in. Based on several reviews and personal [...]

Tecumseh’s last stand

September 21, 2007

So I said I would get some pictures of our hike up Mt. Tecumseh and I finally have them. These aren’t all the pictures, just a few of the good ones. On a special note, I made an executive decision to leave out the one of me watering the trees. The weekend of the 29th [...]

Wish I knew about this last week

September 19, 2007

You probably have read about my recent adventures in mountaineering. My friend Dave and I have embarked on a quest to summit all 48 of New Hampshire’s peaks that are over 4000 feet high and become members of the 4000 Footer’s Club. This is no quick undertaking – we have done only one so far [...]

One down, 47 to go

September 2, 2007

I have to say that I am a bit more than surprised . . . we actually made it. Yesterday my friend Dave, his brother Brian, and I hiked up the first of 48 mountains in the White Mountain National Forest that are over 4000 feet at the summit. We started at 12:05pm from parking [...]
