Our team from the Slow and Steady NH Women Hikers group — a private, closed group — did it again, in that members of their group joined our guides on another adventure; this time with more stable weather. On lead for this trip was Redline Guide Deb Dunn and according to our guests, she did great. Below you will find some content from Deb highlighting their […]
Over the winter we have been offering classes to Veterans in the Wounded Warrior Project. Due to their national reach combined with the challenges of Covid-19, these classes have all been virtual. It’s been great, but even greater was to meet some of these folks in person, at least from this region, once again. This wasn’t our first hike with them, last time we made our […]
Word of mouth is how Redline Guide and NH Justice of the Peace Mike Cherim got this particular wedding assignment — all the way down yonder in Auburn, NH. He married another couple, friends of this couple, and they liked Mike’s style, so to speak. He seemed so relaxed, confident, and happy. Positive vibes to spare. A lot of people ask Mike to marry them for […]
We are sometimes asked to do things that, for us, are outside the norm. If we feel we can deliver to our usual and now expected level of service, however, we try. For example, we’ve twice offered a convenient porter service setting up someone’s backpacking camp for them so they didn’t have to so they could better enjoy the hike. Then there was that time we […]
Essentially, the title details exactly what our guest was looking for. For those not in the know, this returning guest requested a Mt Flume (4328′) to Mt Liberty (4459′) loop hike — hitting two 4000-footers on the southern half of the Franconia Ridge. He also requested his guide from last time, namely he requested Redline Guide Pat Ferland if it was possible. It was a good […]
We often lead special group adventures, a lot of women’s-only offerings, and that was the case here. And in this case we were leading four guests on what was planned as a three-day, two-night wilderness backpack. This trip, led by Redline Guide Samantha Fairfield, ended up being just two-days, one-night, due to weather and other concerns. Sam told us they had a great time, although there […]
We just finished our Fourth Annual Trails Day and it was again a huge success. This year, under the leadership of the US Forest Service, Saco District, we preformed what was probably our heaviest workout as volunteers. Organizers and supporters for this event, besides us and the USFS, were the NH Trail Workers Group, Rockhopper Races, and Tuckerman Brewing. Redline Guides present were Mike Cherim, Ken […]
