*sigh* Wisdom teeth are being extracted next week. Looks like I get zero days in May, ouch! Still plenty of weekends in June but the round trip hike just keeps getting longer and longer with less snow to ski.

June will be a big temptation for me this year, never did it. Where do you normally go, Tux?

By June, the only normal options are generally the East Snowfields or Tuckerman Ravine. Though reports this year indicate East Snowfield season is either going to be really short or non-existent. Some more adventurous and hardly souls have been known to tramp across the Northern Presis for small patches of snow :lol: but I am not even that adventurous ;)

Yeah I'm in for Monday to ski with Austin and possibly Sunday. Can anyone give me the low down and contact info for that Hiker's Paradise place in Gorham?

c'mon mark, google is your friend :p

last time i was there, rates were still less than $20 a bunk but that was a few years ago.

You underestimate the extent of my apathy. I'm so lazy, I actually did not want to move my mouse 1000 pixels up and to the right and click in the Google tool bar to investigate. Amazing isn't it? I should do shows or something.

With proper precaution of scanning the trail, and with ample supply of meds, it could be the most enjoyable hike up you've ever done Steve! Something to get the endorphins going is the best way to relieve the minor aching during recovery....:cool: I had all four out at once, a great Doc...only minor aches...had a pt parking-guard job at the time...a lot of walking did the trick Bigtime!
just a thought....:-D,

Hey...I hope someone's been getting some sun for more than an hour at a time around the NE!...

...otha' Steve (in Maine)
