Saturday’s Hike (TR): Burnt Knob, Windham HP, Acra Point

July 12, 2010

It was a decent weekend overall.  Below is the trip report for Saturday’s hike; you can go to the ADKHP forum to view it directly (via this linq).  Here’s a linq to my facebook portrait gallery with some pics from the day (I still can’t get the f*ckers to show up here).  And here’s the [...]

Meh

July 6, 2010

So I’m still in a funk.  At least, I think I am.  Maybe I’m just exhausted from the weekend and today’s heat.  I got into my car at 17:30 today and the temperature gauge said 109.  The car was, however, sitting in full sun in the parking lot all day, and it quickly cooled to [...]

2164

May 21, 2010

So it’s half past midnight and I’m still up.  I really should be in bed by now.  This has been a short, hard week.  Not hard like “oh my god, I don’t think I can do this” – there’s just been a lot of work involved.  I haven’t done much outside of waking up and [...]

SoloJoe’s Mammoth Range Traverse

May 17, 2010

Ok, so work is wicked busy and I’m exhausted.  I need to take my ass to bed.  I’ve been meaning to put together a post about SoloJoe’s traverse of the Great Range in the Adirondacks this past Thursday, but just haven’t done so.  Joe called me before he headed out, but I didn’t get a [...]

Ego Check

May 6, 2010

Today I spent a little bit of time checking on my ego.  My head can get blown up pretty quickly if I’m not careful.  Egomania has caused me a lot of problems in the past (in retrospect – it’s not something I really noticed at the time), and I’ve expended a lot of effort trying [...]

Good Times, Bad Times

April 27, 2010

They’re all good times.  Life is good, dear reader – even when things ain’t what I’d like them to be.  My scratched cornea from that hike a couple of months ago somehow got re-opened this past weekend.  I took the day off from work on Monday and went in around 4PM on Tuesday.  It was [...]

Gone for the Weekend

April 23, 2010

Well, this is the last you’ll hear from me for a few days, dear reader.  I’m headed up to the Adirondacks this weekend for some peakbagging with my buddy SoloJoe.  He’s actually been up there since Wednesday; I think he’s bagged four peaks so far.  The plan is for us to bag six peaks total [...]
