    Mt. Monadnock: 11/14/04

    This was a trip that was originally supposed to take place on Saturday. But a snow storm dumped about 6 inches of the white stuff in my neck of the woods (North Reading, MA) as well as points south -- and neither me nor Poison Ivy could get out of our driveways until the plows came. So ... we...

    Air Line/Upper Bruin/Valley Way

    All the trails in this area were quite wet and muddy. Since I've never been in this part of the prezzies, I'm not sure if that's the norm. I'd be curious to hear from others if it is. I'd originally planned on doing an overnighter in the Wild River Trail area. But when my hiking buddy and I...
