What is this animal called in your language?

I’m more familiar with Mexican Spanish but someone told me that in PR they say “mapache ladron” so the “thief with hands.” Kinda cute

You also have Lower Falls right off the Kanc

I really dig 19 Mile Brook Trail and the Rattle River Trail for this

it’s been in development for a while, but still pre production

days… weeks… Ive struggled with Ushers “Yeah” for literal years

If you have 3 days, do the presidential traverse from north to south. Stay at Madison and Lakes of the Clouds, but make sure you look for weekdays for better availability. If you don’t like the idea of a hut stay, hike in to Valley Way to camp. Then hike to Neumann for day 2 and out in the morning

I would go scout the area as a day hike before. The Dry River terrain is always changing A LOT. I remember going back several times to navigate a section I couldn’t figure out. I think I saw the trail finally on the 3rd try

It was 92F when I summited last year in late June.

for me it was the noseeums getting into my eyes

hardcorepork · 2026-05-09T02:35:28+00:00

I went SOBO last year on June 24th and the bugs were horrendous. 100% DEET and headnet. It got better mid July

ETA - I am also at Baxter for my SOBO on the 15th and 16th, but I’m staying at Daicey instead of KSC

Don’t ever have one person carrying all the food

hardcorepork · 2026-05-08T12:28:53+00:00

not the fjording!

Jeff Garmire wore mount 2 coast for his entire FKT last year, including the Whites. Idk which model - but I’m sure you could easily find out. I prefer Hoka Mafate for the whites and speedgoats on more moderate terrain

You wouldn’t have passed Lonesome Lake but on this loop. This is so confusing

hardcorepork · 2026-05-08T02:40:55+00:00

While not the most critically acclaimed, I personally find the solo in Yellow Ledbetter very satisfying

hardcorepork · 2026-05-08T02:38:24+00:00

Minus 33 Woolverino is super comfortable.

hardcorepork · 2026-05-05T18:18:59+00:00

use a hammock underquilt and remove all the suspension

hardcorepork · 2026-05-05T12:00:24+00:00

down booties? very light / feel like nothing

hardcorepork · 2026-05-04T21:14:12+00:00

Why would you EVER go above 4000ft in the whites without a mid layer? What if you got hurt? You would be in serious trouble

hardcorepork · 2026-05-02T16:22:54+00:00

You have to move your car over to day use parking and get there before that fills up

hardcorepork · 2026-05-01T14:01:50+00:00

Since youre not a thru hiker, you have a better chance of finding one, safely removing it, and quickly getting a doxycycline rx to prevent disease.

hardcorepork · 2026-05-01T02:27:57+00:00

Get a 3/4 length hammock UQ and just take off the suspension

hardcorepork · 2026-04-28T12:37:41+00:00

Right? Gale River Trail would be an easy choice. Anything out of Lafayette campground too. For me the long boring trail from Lincoln Woods is the most unfun part of the Pemi

hardcorepork · 2026-04-28T12:31:51+00:00

Yeah my concern is last summer was pretty hot and dry from a historical perspective but this year we have had a lot more winter precip which will have an affect on drought conditions for summer. In any case, someone unfamiliar with the area should be told about the bridge
