i'm planning a 4-day loop in desolation wilderness. i hiked the first 8 miles of it as an out-and-back last year around this time, and i really want to go back.

they have lifetime warranties on their stuff, i think? maybe you could send it in and get it fixed

i did take a look at their warranty area- i didn't realize that they repaired the stuff in-house. but yeah, if you send it to them, they will fix it.

This looks like a great day! Need to find someplace for next weekend when my friend visits. Based on my experience kayaking with her last summer and my knowledge of her cardio machine endurance at the gym, it should be not too hard. Maybe we will just find a nice place to explore rather than hike? Eh.

from young hill (the hike was really short; i think i confused it with another one in my fast/lazy planning):

"urban hiking" this sounds so funny.i'm gonna do this today. i like the idea of being able to take the bus to a park/trail.
― tehresa, Saturday, 11 July 2009 20:17 (fourteen years ago) link
still lollin' at gab's comments upthread: "those don't really do much for me"
was thinking about hiking. rox did you hike in CT?
― harbl, Saturday, 11 July 2009 20:24 (fourteen years ago) link
also whatever gabbneb says there is good hiking in new york state. who cares if it's not like the best anyone has ever seen ever. there's a lot of interesting stuff and weird little towns to drive through on the way, and it smells good up there
― harbl, Saturday, 11 July 2009 20:26 (fourteen years ago) link
that trail he mentioned before - breakneck ridge - is supposed to be good. my friend who lived in fishkill used to go do it after work all the time. hudson valley is v v pretty.
― tehresa, Saturday, 11 July 2009 20:31 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah i haven't done anything "downstate" (or is it upstate? depends where you are) but the adirondacks is nice. i bet hudson valley is great too, just has less elevation. my grandparents live in CT so we used to drive through the berkshires and western CT a lot and it looks fun, there are a lot of streams with beaver dams too
― harbl, Saturday, 11 July 2009 20:34 (fourteen years ago) link
i haven't been to the dacks but i could see them from parts of the green mountains in VT and they are fucking gorgeous, gabb is retarded and i hate him
