A mobile podcast "live" from the summit of Lafayette on May 9 2009 - TAKE 2! Although the day started great by the time we got to Lafayette it was socked in and windy which affected the SummitCast. ON the other hand, I may need to tweak my technology to make sure I get a good signal. Any suggestions? Shoot me an email.
By the end of the day, we were in torrential rain! But it was great to be out with new (and old) friends!
Crunch time -- prep time -- training time -- and more...
As I sit here on what I am sure will be the warmest day of December 2008, I
think its about time to plan for Presidential Traverse 2009 (and more).
I have sorely missed hiking this fall and know I will miss it more this
winter. Why you ask? Firefighter training. Each
Thursday (evening) and Sunday (all day) from October 2008 - May 2009! Its
a BIG commitment as it means not just knowledge but skill. The
schedule means I will need to postpone the annual Presidential Traverse until
August 1. (Not enough prep time). So here is the plan -- I hope you join
me hiking around the White Mountains. Not a hiker but a paddler, join us
for a trip on the Allagash Wilderness Waterway!

Wilderness Waterway, Saturday, September 05, 2009 -
Monday, September 14 2009 (includes travel days on each side of the paddle).
Its been a great year and I want to thank everyone who
helped me be a success by coming on a hike with me.
