  • Alaska Here I Come

    By Bill Sunday 26 June 2003 – 7:39:03: Well here it is two days to go before I take off. Julie called today and I think we are all set. I have a feeling this will be great. We plan to take a charter to an old mine and visit Valdez. I have taken tomorrow…

  • New Photos

    The latest photos are now ready for viewing in the digital photography area. These pictures include the hell hike – Blake and Colvin. The hike was 12 1/2 hours long and included 18 miles. Looking back, we took the wrong trail and ended up doing all the mountains in the ridge leading up to Blake…

  • Dehydration

    Recently I went hiking and thought that I could extend my hike without water. The effects were very bad and I am lucky to have that behind me. I should know the dangers as I have raced mountain bikes for ten plus years. Once and a while we must remind ourselves the basics. Below is…

  • Update

    I now have a new site and all the news will be there!

  • New Site

    I am trying out this site and soon it will become my main website administrator. My site will be totally interactive. Sign up and get used to the design. I am doing this because I hope to never write any HTML code again. Now I can spend more time hiking. I have just changed the…

  • Hike in the ADKs this Weekend

    This morning I am trying to still get caught up from last weekends hiking trip. I am trying to slip in a little picture processing time before work. After that I must unpack and clean the car. Then the house. Tomorrow I get ready and pack for this weekend. I think I will hike in…

  • Abraham Mountain Climb

    Ok it seems as though the site is back up. I am back from my trip to Vermont and it was great. I hiked Abrahm on Saturday and Sunday I meet up with my best friend Paul for a jaunt up Camel Back. It was awesome. Pics to come soon. Getting rest now. Goodnight.

  • Site Down!

    My web host provider has fudged up the data bases and their whole site is down….Check out my site later.

  • Tonight is the pro bike race in New Haven

    Welp, looks like Couchacaraga got the best of me (seriously, who names these places?!). Time to reroute this weekend adventure! Since tonight’s epic pro bike race in New Haven is calling my name, I’m sticking around to capture the action with my trusty camera. Gotta say, seeing those pros battle it out is pure adrenaline…

  • Peak Bagging

    Last weekend I went to Vermont for some peak bagging. I started out at Ascutney and then went on to Stratton. I spent the night in the car and attacked Killington Peak. All week I have been nursing a real sore ankle. I injured it three weeks ago and my new boots were responsible for…

  • Slight Focus Problem

    My camera is now ok with a slight front focus problem. No problem, I like f11 anyway. I post just a few of last weekends adventure. Come back tomorrow evening for some more. Goodnight.

  • Back From Hiking Trip

    Just hobbled back from a hiking adventure, feeling like a two-legged pack of sore muscles. My trusty Vasque boots finally decided they’d seen enough summits, so I treated myself to a new pair – gotta keep the feet happy! Spent the weekend in Massachusetts, summiting two mountains, and then snuck into the Catskills for a…

  • Got That Tee Shirt

    So picture this: I’ve finally wrangled my latest batch of photos into submission, and let me tell you, they’re fire. Like, next-level fire. Last weekend, I conquered the mighty Escarpment Trail, summited North Point in the glorious Catskills, and even threw in a “been there, done that” stop at the ever-popular Katterskill Falls. It was…

  • What to do?

    I am on the verge of desaster. Yesterday it rained so hard all day I was forced to do nothing and stay inside (sleeping). This morning I woke up late and must make a decision beore it is to late. Go to a mountain bike race and take no pictures or go to the Escarpment…

  • Town Meeting

    Good morning. I am at work early so that I can go to Town Meeting. This is a thing were we all go out to breakfast. The special is Corned Beef Hash topped with Eggs and surrounded by Homefries. MMMMMMMMM. Posted some new photos last night except I am having trouble getting sharp pictures. I…

  • Hiking and Biking

    Hello Everyone, Hope your week’s going well! Last weekend, I ventured out for hikes in the Hudson Highlands and the Catskills – you can see the memories in my photos. This weekend, I’m heading back to the Catskills to explore some waterfalls and tackle more mountains. There’s even a chance I might join a mountain…

  • Thank You Mother Earth!

    Since yesterday was the first day that it got above 70 degrees, I just want to come on and give thanks. I am thankful for the weather yesterday and i will not take such days for granted. I ran and walked in the woods. Also drove around with the windows rolled down. I am very…
