Another great MM Production! Looks like a great time was had and you met some very interesting new friends to boot.
i'm curious how your cameras handled the temps and if you did anything special...
looks like a great trip Yooz. i really enjoy your videos. the OLP is indeed a very special place; been there several times myself. i'm especially fond of that spot where Yellow Dog and Rock Run...
Ah the memories. i was in the Pemi last Sep for 2 nights. my last night/day was the same as yours. what a place.
your trip was quite a bit more ambitious than mine though. i went farther up...
another quality Medicine Man production! thanks for sharing this, your videos are always candy for the eyes. looked like a great time.
In the ongoing effort to lower pack weight, I decided to try my hand at a quilt. About a year ago I stumbled on a pdf file of a summer quilt with sewn-thru baffles that looked easy enough. It helps...
sorry i'm so late to this thread. sounds like you are in good hands out there in Pitt. good luck to you Mr. Keith, you are in my prayers.
ish
I'm in.
Happy Birthday Dutch. You don't look a day over 80.
LMAO
now that's a great story, i love it!
Another epic MAHHA! Had a wonderful time (albeit shortened) with the ever expanding MAHHA family. it's always good to see the familiar faces again and to meet new faces for some familiar names here...
sounds like the same concept. butane fuel source. the knife blade is about 1/4" wide by 1" long and maybe 1/32" thick. sound familiar?
i'll probably get one because the price isn't bad and it...
Hey team,
Anybody ever tried a 'Bernzomatic' torch with hot knife blade on rip-stop, syl-nylon, M90, or other synthetics? I saw one today at home depot and it really got me to thinking about just...

have a great time out there Rich. if the weather holds out like you say it should be spectacular.
Great trip and great report Dutch. Looks to me like you're probably planning excuses to get back over there already. Thanks for the pics report and vids.

Sometime in September or October I'm kinda sorta planning on trying the "Weekend+: Pemigewasset Wilderness Loop" described here:

Lazy River Road,
did you noticed any difference the cat cuts made in the quality of life between the two cuben tarps you used?
i'm getting ready to assemble a Sgt. Rock tarp and can't decide to...

interesting, very interesting.
liked the music a LOT. could you give us a list of the songs/artists?
Like GLP said, good times had by all and as always it's good to see old familiar faces once again. Oh yeah i finally got to see a picture of the green Les Paul. A truly beautiful instrument.
see you guys there. i'm gonna bring a mess 'o beans.
ditto on Rain Man's experience with OWF seconds. mine had two dark threads running along the edge that didn't impact the usability of the fabric at all. oh yeah, and it is BLAZE orange.
WOW! looking at the pics i see a LOT of new faces. that's just terrific for the community, i love it. Wish i could have made this one, but there will be others. maybe i'll give this January...
hey Super, wanna trade?

i used to keep mine on the ground handy till last summer at the first (i think) NEHHA hang at Grout Pond VT. i got up for a nature call and slipped my Teva's on and promptly killed two slugs. ...

Great trip report SBD. i was up two weeks ago and spent about two hours in the dark taking every dirt road garmin suggested to dead ends before i finally made it into Masten around 11pm. hiked to...

how does it work in the field?
thanks
just a quick comment on the first two pictures:
you need to calm down; you're never gonna last at that pace.
looks like you two had a great time, i can hardly wait for similar times with my...

Nice video. Great job on the whole thing 2Q & ZQ. Each one of these leaves me anxious for the next. That's a good thing.
Awwesome! Thanks, I thought that i'd probably missed a thread on this.
So Traildays is only a few weeks away and this year marks 25 years they've been doing it. I wasn't going to go after last year but now that it's close I'm thinking about going again.
Anybody else...
Syb,
I'll take a name tag.
thanks

got mine today, nothing extra in my box.
thanks opie!
the interlude music is 'Ice Dance' by Paul Reeves. i first heard it in a video some guy in Denmark did to accompany test footage he shot with a new camera. Reeves does a lot of stuff that sounds...
Good job. Really nice looking work. What were the dimensions of the rip-stop before you started sewing?
somebody remind me again, why do we use amsteel?

here's Opie's you tube instructions on doing a locked brummel using just one end of the rope:

you should find his other how-to's there also.
Cranky & Syb,
that's a great idea, i might just make a cozy for my ownself. As far as FBC is concerned, i guess i should at least show one even though i never use one myself.
2Questions has asked me to do a Freezer Bag Cooking(FBC) demo for this. I guess it will be around lunch time on Saturday and my presentation will be decidedly non-professional. I'll bring a few...
Mt Rogers is definitely on my bucket list.
Welcome to my first trip report. I went for an overnight to the Pocahontas Campsite on the AT in Berks county PA on Thursday 3/31. Rain was in the forecast for Thursday night developing into snow...
So lemme get this straight. You have dynaglide running the whole circumference of the hammock? The sides just have channels sewn in them to contain the dynaglide that continues to become the...
i have my toggles tethered to the whoopie sling with a length of light line. this serves two purposes. one, i haven't lost any toggles since and two i can pull the loop out if i inadvertently pull...
I used amsteel for my suspension (7/64) but would like to try dynaglide just for fun. I just switched my tarp tieouts to some line i found at a Cabelas here. it looks like it might be close to...
i have a pair of Black Diamond two piece poles with 'flip-lock' that when collapsed are very close to 36". so close that for me they ARE 36".
they might be the Traverse model.
I literally just got back from the antique shop down the block with this little nugget. I think I got terrific deal because I've seen them on ebay for much more than I paid. My problem now is I...
