I know I've mentioned this before, but here I go again.....I'd like to do some fairly easy hiking during hunting season, but don't want to do the 4,000' right now. I live in southern NH and would like to get out there to do "something". A little afraid of being in the "wrong place" during...

Everyone up here in the NE must be pretty sick of this rainy summer, I know I am.....haven't done a whole lot of anything because of that or some darn injury. Still nursing a shoulder injury from a fall I took skiing a year and a half ago and then last weekend I strained my lower back muscles...

Anyone have an idea of the conditions for just hiking up to the bowl for the coming weekend? We wanted to go last weekend, but because of the rain we opted not too.....now we just want to hike up to watch people, although I'll be a little jealous of not skiing myself, I just don't think I could...

Okay, here's my delima: I wrenched my shoulder pretty good(or bad, whichever way you want to look at it) on New Years Day. Haven't skied since. Been to PT 2X, more to come. The PT said she "didn't think" it was the rotator cuff, but I have bruised the socket that the shoulder sets in pretty...

Okay, I'm sure this has been asked before, but here I go. We just got back from a weekend hiking trip and we both have Northface gore tex pants and LL Bean gore tex jackets. I have washed these before. But what I'm wondering is how often do you suppose you should wash them? What do you use to...
