Week 15 (2022) in Review

The whole video compilation thing seems to be sticking. Inasmuch, another one has been created and features Redline Guides Ryan McGuire, Dominic Torro (x2), Will Murphy, and Mike Cherim all doing their thing. Specifically mountaineering, backcountry skiing (x2), alpine ice climbing, and a “tourist tour” hiking/walking exploration. Check it all out in the following video. Thank you for adventuring with Redline Guiding.

The Spring Mix

Does “Spring Mix describe a bagged salad? Well, yes, but here in the Mt Washington Valley the Spring Mix best describes the myriad adventures and educational opportunities that present themselves at this time of year. What follows is a short video re-cap of some of the cool stuff we did over the past few days. Activities include a Basic Mountaineering Skills course (educational program) led by […]

Two With Snow

From afar, when there’s snow, two New Hampshire mountain ranges stand out. Mt Washington and the Presidential Range and the famed Franconia Ridge. Where shades of frozen gray and green bearing slashes and scars dominate the winteresque landscape, these two ridges remain bright and white, glinting in the sun. Above it all — our precious alpine areas, a resource to be protected. Over the past few […]

Same Day Rock and Ice

New Hampshire offers a large number of cool things to do at any given time of year. Let’s face it, the state is an outdoor-lover’s paradise. And during a brief period, most notably in the spring, this large number increases as the demarcation line between the seasons gets a little fuzzy. The lingering winter activities vie for our attention as much as the spring things do. […]

Clinging Onto Winter

We aren’t ones to give up on a season easily. Especially winter in New Hampshire. What the heck happened? Nature’s been holding out. So we won’t give up quite yet, but we’d encourage you all to get after it, too, while you can. Thanks to some snow, we got a chance to enjoy another week of Nordic and alpine skiing and there’s still some ice to […]

Weekend in Motion

While some arms did swing ice tools under the guidance of Redline Guide Pat Ferland this past weekend, it was the legs of hikers that created the most warmth. First at bat was Redline Guide Mike Maciel as he showed one gentleman his beloved Franconia Ridge. Next up was Redline Guide Phoebe Seltzer showing one many-time returning guest a delightful hike to Mt Parker during a […]

Another Weekend Report

Still trying this new method of wading through and presenting some of the week’s media, we’ve produced another video of the fun times folks had this past week. 4000-footers in this video include a hike of Whiteface and Passaconaway for a returning guest and her two daughters, this trip led by Redline Guide Ken Hodges. Then another hike with a mother and her very young son, […]

Trail 9 of 11

We can barely keep up with all that our Redline Guides do. Between the trips and adventures they lead, the training they put themselves through, and all that they do on their days off recreating, it’s sometimes a little mind blowing and always impressive, at the very least. This post marks yet another accomplishment. This time it’s Redline Guide Arlette Laan… a.k.a. Apple Pie or just […]

Epitome of Who We Are

This one episode of Windows to the Wild epitomizes who we are — it exposes our core. This will make our third appearance on Windows to the Wild (see footnote), a staple of the New Hampshire Public Broadcasting Station (NHPBS), hosted by the beloved Willem Lange. And here it is, without further ado: Windows to the Wild: Sectional Hiker – Season 17, Episode 4 » This […]

More Weekend Fun

Some folks sit at home, layered up against the cold, and losing that battle without cranking the furnace costing them a fortune. Meanwhile, other folks are running around outside, staying active, sporting a light shirt or thin jacket as their only defense again a life-robbing cold. How is this even possible? The sit-at-home folks do wonder. It completely defies logic. They repeat it back. “Let me […]

We Hiked. We Skied. We Climbed.

Summer into fall is our busiest season, but winter is not far behind as there are so many awesome things to do for those willing to get out there and suffer. Actually, we kid about that last part: the suffering. Not to say there isn’t some discomfort in winter, there is on some days, but once it’s understood how to minimize it, barring the very coldest […]

Mt Jackson in Wintah?

February — at least the one in the video below and images above — is barely visible. It’s almost too nice. Back when we were kids February meant business. It was cold, windy, snowing, and uphill both ways. Ayuh, it was. On this trip led by Redline Guide Mike Maciel, winter had evidently visited for a little bit but hadn’t really lingered. Sure, there were signs […]
