Some random photos of the wonders of New England
Fly fishing on the West River in Vermont: 
In the "wilderness" in Northern Maine on our own. Small moose foraging. We were only about 50' away. 
Flying to our remote site via float plane. The top of Mt. Katadin 
Camping at Cobscook Bay/Bay of Fundy just South of Lubec. The most peaceful, beautiful, and most awe inspiring campsites on the planet, bar none. 25' tide emptied the bay twice a day. 
My, my, New England has some of the most beautiful scenery in the entire country. You Mainers are really spoiled! Rome |

Very much near there. My wife and I were on a tiny "lake" just Southeast of there on a 5 day fly-fishing trip where our pilot just dropped of off and said "see ya" in 6 days. Totally on our own, no power, no phones, no nuttin except eating, sleeping, and fishing and....well......you get the idea. I love the North Woods. I've been up there numerous times under the same circumstances. There's nothing better then being totally, 100% on your own knowing that you are responsible for your own safety and circumstance.

Sorry for the hijack. change "forums" to "archive" in the URL for archived posts alright, I'll post just a couple here though. Short and sweet.

I've started taking 302 across the White Mountains sometimes, really nice like the Kancamangus.

Last year's trip up Mt Washington's Cog Railway. The weather was less than perfect and the view (once above cloud level) was quite obscured.
Fun time with my daughter just the same.

0630 last Saturday morning 40 yards from the kitchen window (sorry for the quality - murky and thru the glass). They were drinking for 3-4 minutes before a car came by and spooked them
