I hate getting in this discussion, but this still doesn't sit with me. An adult who just walked from Harpers Ferry, with other experiences....gets turned around, sets up camp and just sits there and waits to die. In 26 days she didn't walk around her perimeter during the day to check out the area?

Walking with Goodie this weekend.......Jug End Road to Rt.20 Trail head. Army Ant and significant other will be one day behind us, but they are taking the week and walking to Vt. Violet couldn't get the days off so she can't get here after all.

Quote from LIhikers: “I noticed your crew has a 4 legged mascot, nice! And the pup didn't look stressed at all ” That would be Dillon, Erics dog. He is a good boy......loves to play 'fetch'. I joke that working each day feels like a 15 mile hike......well Dillon runs about 30 each day!

Quote from Astro: “Quote from CoachLou: “youtube.com/watch?v=kioGUSjuo9g ” Sounds sort of like Goodfellas does trail maintenance. ” Luckily you have spent a few days with Andy and I so you can somewhat understand the Dialect..........don't think it will work once you get into Mass.......totally different!

Less than a month to my road trip to Roan Mtn. Have my room, 10K all set to shuttle me. Some walks planned to get in good shape....fish car maintenance scheduled. I'm good to go....getting a little excited about it!

Nice link Kev!

I have no pics of this past weekends work. I was the quarry guy. I hooked the lines to the rocks, and ran a belay, when we moved boulders. So my gadget was in my pack! On the south side of the AT/ Palisades Parkway crossing, after the trail heads north from Brien shelter it climbs Black Mountain, with a lovely view of Bear Mtn. to the ESE. The Tappen Zee to the SSE, and NYC to the south. As you climb down to nobo it goes down a steep gullied stretch. By fall, the first 100 ft down will get a fac…

Really Scott....excellent thread. I was in the Bear Mtn. book store Sunday morning....almost bought that 'Army' issue edible plant book!

Quote from LIhikers: “I want to give kudos to the NY/NJ Trail Conference because of the good job they do in recognizing volunteers. I used to do trail work for another organization and I never heard a thing from them. It was discouraging. The NY/NJTC does a good job through e-mail contact, both from the club and from my supervisor, and occasionally a tee shirt or patch shows up in the mail at our house. Thanks NYNJTC! ” I will second that! I work all over the lower Hudson. This organization is w…

Quote from Astro: “Quote from CoachLou: “Today was to be a training day.....it is still raining here in the Nutmeg state. Which is just as well. Friday, my office was a pigstye, so I did the big field day! I sprayed a cleaner on the floor and went and got a bucket and swab.

Today was to be a training day.....it is still raining here in the Nutmeg state. Which is just as well. Friday, my office was a pigstye, so I did the big field day! I sprayed a cleaner on the floor and went and got a bucket and swab. Somehow I stepped on the wet tile and turned my ankle and down I went. No swelling, no Black& blue....but stiff and sore. It is best I rest it....if it was nice out I'd be out getting some miles in and making it worse and it will never heal by the end of June!

Quote from Wise Old Owl: “Quote from CoachLou: “I found the Ultrathon a few years ago for fly fishing. Doesn't make things melt! I also broke down and bought a new pair of zip offs. I have to dip them by Memorial day walk with Goody! ” Haven't really heard from Goody in a long while how is he doing? ” I will find out Memorial Day weekend! He lives in Waterbury, totally out of my way to anywhere, and I've been doing so much trail work, it is tough to hook up.

Quote from Astro: “Quote from Trebor: “Baltimore Jack passed away early this morning ” Sorry to hear that. Glad I had the chance to meet him. Only regret he was not willing to take a picture at the time. Despite the rough exterior he had some charm. Was quick to say how more difficult section hiking the AT was compared to thru-hiking. Had a reputation for being extremely intelligent and it came across in our conversation. ” Totally agree
