• About me: : Easy-going, laid-back outdoorsy Taurus here - always looking for new outdoorsy buddies to share new places and experiences with. Lets go! "If you never have, you should. These things are fun and fun is good." -Dr Seuss
• Favorite Places: : Oh Gosh, where do I begin? How about I try to do this by theme? There are many more places than I can mention here, but here goes: Campsite: Giant Ledge, Catskill Mtns, NY. Quite possibly the best view of all legal backcountry campsites in the Northeast, not too difficult to get to, yet still remote Swimming Hole: Rock Run, Endless Mtns, PA. Pennsylvania's Endless Mountains are a lot nicer and far more remote than most people think. Perhaps the Northeast's best kept secret - lots of excellent places to go for a dip. Hiking Trail: North Fork Mtn, WV Wilburn Ridge, Mt Rogers, VA and the Presidential Traverse, White Mtns, NH. Can't decide the non-stop views on all three of these will leave you dragging your jaw several miles behind from sheer awe. Water: Isle Royale NP, MI. Moose, lakes, harbors, and one of the most peaceful places I've ever been to in my life. Also worth mentioning: Allagash Waterway, ME - there's nothing else on the east coast like it. Nothing. Beach: Gunnison Beach, Sandy Hook, NJ. Yeah its a bit of a departure from the remote settings above, but its nearby, and has nice views of a different kind. Car Camping: Acadia NP, ME. Forest, mountains, beach. Must I say more? Just can't seem to keep away from Maine - it really is like the promised land. All-out Wilderness: Nabesna Slope, Mt Jarvis, Wrangell-St Elias National Park, Alaska. Half a day's drive on the highway northeast of Anchorage, it really is like nothing in the lower 48. The Last Frontier. Honorable Mentions: Devils Path, Catskill Mtns, NY Adirondack Park, NY Loyalsock Trail, PA Black Forest Trail, PA Cranberry Wilderness, WV Dolly Sods Wilderness, WV
• Outdoor Experience: : Avid backpacker, hiker, camper, skier - have all kinds of gear for those and always looking to improve it - total REI junkie in the making :) I'm open to trying just about anything else. If it's outdoors, I'm probably interested enough to at least listen and then we can take it from there :) "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than the ones you did. So throw off bowline. Cast away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain
