Our crew only did a few small projects and just 3 guyz tops. My Town Land trust has had only those zoom meetings, which I do not. We moved to town in the summer, in the late fall I joined the Land Trust and gave them my resume.......they gave me a trail! I only have worked on it so far. When it warms up I need to borrow a few tools from my NY crew and recruit a few locals to make a watercrossing. I'm sure these masks will be fine.

I have about $65.00 coming this year, I've been a member since 88. I need to touch and inspect my gear, so I do get plenty of stuff there. Every time I go up there I get at least one pair of socks and fuel canisters. I have in mind what I'll spend it on this time, but will have to get it by ordering it. I got my snow shoes last year, a bag for them, ordered. I did get the 450 Bear can there, as I wanted to hold it and inspect it. I got a new pair of Keen Targee IIIs, cause I aint buying shoes on…

You know, I actually did not see them feed. And of course they skate on our baths! But, Sunday up in the trees around the feeders , 5 male Robins. They would have to scratch threw 6" on snow to get the worms.

we got rain.......heavy at times

Quote from roadrunner: “Some seriously cold weather, but luckily we're not getting any of it here in Jacksonville, Fl.; it's all about the Jet Stream, I've come to realize, as long as it doesn't dip down here our weather is just fine. If it does dip down here, it's always associated with a bitter cold northwest wind. I've started seeing robins showing up here, which means that the worst of the winter is over... for this area; we'll see if that holds true for this year. I've started my warm-weath…

Quote from LIhikers: “More snow in the forecast for Thursday and Friday. Kathy and I hope to get out for a 2 nighter someplace, Sat., Sun, Mon. Hoping to need my snow shoes ” Don't tell the Covid Police.....but I'm trying to get to Vt to snow shoe this weekend myself!

ULA Western Mountaineering Therma-Rest Darn Tough Petzl Sawyer ExOfficio ” I purchased my orange Thermarest in 1986..........it has been assigned duty in the Fish Car for about 7/8 years now.

When my nephew got out, he came back with this hoop thing that sprang open.....boing!!! It was cool, it was heavy.......it was Military Grade.......................... I was in the Military....... ah, No. ...........The owner of Lightheart Gear was Air Force, and I have one of her tents, and it is pretty sweet and weighs just over 2 lbs.

I'm heading up to my cousins in Woodstock, Vt. They got plenty and my trail is covered with snow so no clean up!

Quote from max.patch: “It's been cold and windy here since Sunday but after reading what you guys are going thru I'm not gonna complain! ” Those of us complaining are all veterans of MLK weekends and many years in the Northeast..........we are just reporting the weather!
