11 hours ago I had the privilege of meeting JR Harris ( @jrinthewilderness ) when he gave a presentation to our local ADK chapter the other night. JR was and remains a native New Yorker and outdoorsman, now with over 50 years of international trekking experience. JR doesn’t just backpack to some destination; he is a keen observer of the people, places, animals and plants he encounters along the way and his stories are riveting. His trips are often long and solo and he shares his joys and lessons learned (some the hard way) in his talks and through writing in his book,
2 days ago One more autumn view over Heart Lake. The mountains already had a coating of snow.
2 days ago Winter is coming on fast in the mountains. This was the first time on snowshoes for these groups. Great fun, smooth trails, and no bugs. Some areas are already snowshoe-able.

Some people make a point of pride about not wearing snowshoes and they willingly go off postholing in deep snow. Maybe they wouldn’t if they understood that can ruin the experience
3 days ago We enjoyed this fantastic view of Bray and the Irish Sea from the summit of Great Sugar Loaf in the northeast of County Wicklow. Although part of the Wicklow Mountains, Sugar Loaf stands alone and has 360 views from it's summit. The conical shape and steep slopes composed of light colored quartzite make it stand out from it's surroundings. The route we took from the north (starting near the Kilmacanogue GAA) was less than 4 miles round trip but did include about 1300 feet of elevation gain. An even shorter route with half as much elevation gain approaches from the
5 days ago Guides day off. I took a very nice walk with my wife yesterday. I travel a lot but there is so much beauty within walking distance!
5 days ago On Boot Spur with good friends after a night at the hut. It's a beautiful trail and a fun alternative route back to Pinkham Notch It was hot that weekend, even up over 5000 feet.
