Amazing Art Trails from around the World.

The great thing about disagreements on a trail is, I dont have to police them. I just pick up my pace and keep a blissful distance between us.

Something magical happens: can you really take kids on a 630-mile hike

Nutmeg's nap, Beaver Pond, White Memorial Foundation, Morris, Connecticut. August 1, 2023, 3:25 PM. Hiking with my brother Mike. His girl Nutmeg, still going strong at 13, finds a shady spot for a nap.

40 years ago today: The climb up Pleasant Pond Mountain from the shelter was the worst section of trail I had hiked in a while, but nothing could bring me down today. I just plugged on up and took the side trail to the open summit and a sort of roaming 360-degree view.

40 years ago today: From the bank, it all looked so peaceful. Golden sun-drops swirled innocently over foam-flecked blue and soft breezes stirred the pines. The initial fifteen or twenty yards to the gravel bar was almost anticlimactic. The current was strong, but the water was barely ankle-deep.

Shredded clouds, New Britain Reservoir, Wolcott, Connecticut. July 6, 2018, 7:27 PM. It's a bit breezy at ground level, but higher in the atmosphere winds are shredding these clouds apart.

40 years ago today: A quarter-mile side trail connects Pierce Pond Lean-to with Carrying Place Camps, a privately-run operation offering meals and lodging in rustic cabins to hunters, fishermen and hikers. Note: In northern New England terminology, A cabin is called a camp. Thus, the name means Carrying Place Cabins.

40 years ago today: The AT followed the Arnold Trail for almost two miles. It crossed a flat, very boggy area surrounding the inlet stream for Middle Carry Pond but stayed well to the north and out of sight of the pond itself.

Something I would never have done in the Houston area:

I've marked some I want to get out and try to . I even got some of the Xero Shoes Scrambler Mids on the way to facilitate it. ()

It's been decades since I did any , but I'd love to get into it here.

Northbound on the Etobicoke Creek Trail, just before the ascent to the airport. The frost has clearly hit the ivy vines, and fall is on it's way.

I took these today. Love these trails where the branches overhang. So peaceful.

40 years ago today: The Appalachian Trail climbed a very steep half-mile to the summit of the South Horn, one of a pair of open, rocky crags rising above the north shore of the pond (as you might guess, the other is called North Horn). Angry winds were shrieking past South Horns summit, and the haze was intensifying.

40 years ago today: After the P.O., I stopped at the Stratton Diner for what could very well be my final two cheeseburgers on the Appalachian Trail, some french fries, a coke, and some ice cream. My thumb was out as I walked the outskirts of the village. A few cars passed, but none stopped.

Hiked up to a ridge today and enjoyed fantastic views of two mountain ranges and a valley between! One of the in this pic is one that I rode to in a previous trip by horseback. So many great memories here!

40 years ago today: I really wanted to hike the thirteen tough miles over four major summits today and make it to the Post Office in Stratton before it closed this evening. I made a special effort to reach Maine 27 early, in case I needed to wait a long time for a ride.

40 years ago today: The flat ground around the ponds was nevertheless evil walking: a mess of tangled tree roots and piles of jagged boulders thrusting up through the soggy, dark earth at all angles. Everything was slick and damp and treacherous I never could break into an actual stride.

40 years ago today: The grades moderated along the crest, and most of the final mile to the summit was a series of gradually-ascending terraces. Dark, soggy tundra was interspersed with ledges of naked rock dabbed with lichen. Masses of ground-hugging plants spread out like thick shag carpets while scrub spruce shivered in the gale above them.

40 years ago today: The Appalachian Trail continued northeastward, crossing a bunch of small knobs along a low ridge and skirting a few sphagnum bogs resembling lonely moors.

Wishing you a pleasant week.

40 years ago today: The thirteen miles of Appalachian Trail between Routes 17 and 4 wound through a landscape of bogs, lakes and low ridges. It was the easiest terrain the trail had traversed since Vermont, despite a few short climbs as steep and treacherous as any of the longer climbs in Maine.
