Hell I've seen snow in every month up here except for July and August. Why would I want to move south? It's too damn hot down there. I'd rather it be -20 than 90 any day. At least you can dress for the cold.”

“thanks, Aero. Is that hike mandatory? Done it once already. Actually I'd like to try it from the Deer creek side (or the Pattee Canyon rec trail head)”

“But anyway, I'm off to the Pine Mountain Trail. Hope everyone else gets out and about this weekend as well.”

“I'm am just about to leave to catch my plane to Boston, Mass. from there i will head to Mt. Washington!!!!! Oh yeah!!”

“Oh, the irony!

I might actually make an afternoon escape from my father's in NY to either Giant Ledge or Slide Mtn to maybe get some better pictures than the photo ops given to us on the trip there 3 weeks ago.

Might also head up to Ithaca on Sunday for a little recon on stuff to do during Treebeard's trip in July...

(Auto)Tour de New York, here I come!”

“For a 3 day backpacking trip in Eastern Wa. Planned on a whim this morning..should be fun. :-D”

“3 day trip in the San Gorgonio Wilderness...with new gear...Yoohoo!!”

“I'm hitting the river tomorrow instead of hiking.”

“Finally! Finally I am going hiking. =) It's been since October. I am such a loser. See ya all Monday, or maybe Tuesday.”

“Grand Canyon last weekend, today hiking/climbing.

Life is good!”

“Staying home this weekend, camping/hiking next. Pretty wild on the roads here, friend coming home and I'll do airport duty. Anyone know how to prune a mesquite tree?”

“Moonlight hiking next weekend!

This weekend the woods are up to their armpits in touristas, LOL”

“Working all weekend to get a project out, but in 2 weeks I'll be in the Smokies!!!”

“Will try to get a day hike in somewhere. I need to sneak it in between rain, wind, hail, lightening and tornados.....yuck.”

“I had tried to plan a trip. Now I'm sitting here doing nothing. lol!

As everestnut mentioned, will try to work in something, some time this weekend. Gotta cover a graduation and some Memorial Day programs, which puts good-sized holes in Sunday and Monday.

Also.... gotta get ready to head west Thursday-ish. Yee haw! (so I guess I shouldn't be pouting)”

“How far west? Should we be alert?”

“Day hiking the Old Loggers Trail in PA tomorrow with RedOctober.”

“Like turbohikr said, he and I will be doing the Old Logger's Path in Lycoming County, PA. We'll let you all know how it goes. Anyone who's interested in accompanying us, just E-Mail me. Special congratulations to turbohikr on his first triathlon, that was intense...”

“No, but I'm going Sea Kayaking!
Right Now! I'm hitting the road in a few minutes!
See y'all next Monday! :P”

“Yup. Heading to Mt. Washington for a dayhike since I missed it with EarthNsky and his brother last weekend. I'll probably go up Tuckerman and then hit Lion Head if Tuckerman is closed past HoJos.”

“Hopefully the weather will be right and we will be able to dayhike at Shiloh NMP.”

“have a safe a great trip stovie :)
take lots pic for me.”

“Hiking? Duh! I'll be taking the whole week off and backpacking/hiking the eastern Sierra and Yosemite. It's what I do. It's who I am. It's where I'm going. Thank you, I have spoken, you may be seated.”

“Chuck Keiper trail in Pa, WAHOO. I'm doing "the most rugged, pristine" trail in PA with RedOctober this weekend. We're attenpting this 50 mile trail in 2 days. If you wanna join un for he hike or hamburgers saturday night at the trail head, lemme know.”

“sorry the plans got foiled like that Ski. I hope to hike with you sometime. Now that I tasted the Whites I want to get back up there asap.”

“Uh oh, Comrade is addicted to New Hampshire... But maybe that's not such a bad thing after all. Muah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Anyway, in other news, I'm actually back out on the trail this weekend (insert ample "Wahoo's" here) with a gradiose road trip to southern Ohio. Can't hardly wait.”

“BP trip to Ohio? No mountains.”

“I'd tell but I don't want to jinx it.”

“Yeah, it's my first BP trip not heading north -- I figured I'd start off real easy. Besides, I get to add another state to my collection of states visited this year and meet some TT-ers from a different region. So far, I've got the entire Northeast except for Maine (I'll have to see what I can do about that...)”

“I'll be heading 1:30 south to the Big Z where I will meet up with PhantomSoul, Prosecutor, Gemini, and many others. Can't wait!”

“Gotta work til then. I'm off as of Sunday morning. Going swimming, and kayaking if the weather is fit. Calling for it to be cooler. I should at least be able to fit in a paddle trip with my better half. Planning on heading out bp'ing on Monday morning.”

“No big whoop, earthNsky. However, it would have been nice to get a call. It would be nice to hike with you sometime, but I'll certainly be more cautious if you say you or your brother are doing the trip planning and have a backup plan for myself.”

“I'll be off the trail for a while, so everyone make sure you post trip reports and take lots of pictures.”

“I'll be out stomping around tonight... Moon rises at 9:43 local time (99% full). You lycanthopes had a big time last night, eh?”

“How 'bout BPing in Florida! I think I'm gonna head down to Jonathan Dickenson for an overnight test run of my homemade tarptent this weekend. Maybe it'll rain a little and maybe I'll stay dry if it does.

Maybe I'll even finally get to see a damn gator!”

“I'm doing the Devils Path Dayhike in the Catskills this saturday!!!! 26 miles 9000 feet of up and 9000 feet of down and seven 3500' peaks of pure pain!”

“Yes indeedy.

That would be ME... backpacking... :-)”

“We are car camping, and hiking if it isn't too hot. Payson is predicted for 97, which pretty much wilts me.”

“National Trails Day - planning on working on the Bald Mtn Tr. blowdowns in St. Mary's Winderness”

“no dang it...it's going to be raining all weekend here and I have to work..”

“Going to try over 6000' gain/loss over a 13 mile hike. Going to hike up Mt Colvin, over to Blake Peak, back over Colvin, over to Nippletop, over to Dial Mountain, back over Nippletop, and back to camp.”

“Going to open up with a bangin' 4 peaks this weekend (or at least that is the plan).

Cliff on Saturday (plus the 10-mile hike into base camp), and Marcy, Skylight, and Gray Peak on Sunday (plus the 10-mile hike out of base camp). BOO-YA!

How's that for an inaugural ADK-46 trip?”

“Going with a local forum group to do a slot canyon near Sedona. Hope we don't get flushed.”

“Mt Whitney via the Mountaineer's Route.”

“going to try to do a local hike in the So Cal Mountains on Sunday.”

“Somewhere near Luzern, Switzerland. Last time we did 17km, almost straight up and down. This time we might do something a little more mellow.

Oh yeah, I moved, by the way, so take me off the CA list and add me to the Basel, Switzerland list.”

“Then hopefully all this crap will make sense.






hehehehehehe”

“Bongo! I'm coming to Switzerland!! I'll be arriving in Luzern on August 24th and leaving early on the 26th! You're in Basel now? Well, if you happen to be in Luzern at that time, let me know. I think I owe you a beer after ND shellacked Stanford last year....


Oh, BTW, yes, I'm going hiking this weekend. Leaving here at noon heading to Desolation w/BowlderSon.”

“Bridgestone/Firestone this weekend with Father Goose.”
