Just putting out feelers at this point, but sometime in either July or August I’m going to be taking a Saturday trip up to New Hampshire to climb Mount Monadnock. It’s not a serious climb with ropes and tackle and such, but it is a pretty decent walking climb and does have a few good challenges (if I recall correctly: it’s been about 10 years since I’ve been there.)
So, anyone else interested in making this a Mini-Dopefest?
You might be able to twist my arm into that. I’ve never climbed Monadnock, but I often climb 4,000-footers farther north.
Despite living here in New England for almost 14 years now, I’ve never hiked Monadnock, and have been looking for an excuse. Unfortunately, we have guests this weekend, so I can’t. Sorry. Maybe another time – I’d be interested in meeting (and in getting hold of a copy of Der Fuhrer’s Face".)
What weekend, Cal? He said either July or August.
I love hiking/rock climbing and all that. Too bad NH is so far away. It’s okay though. I’ll go to Jay Cooke on the day that you guys do this and I’ll be with you in spirit. We’d be rock climbing together, just in different places. Maybe I can get some MN Dopers to head up there with me?
Here I was all excited!
For the record, I’m making the Long’s Peak expedition around the second week of August 
It’s a beautiful area!
Sorry about that. I read the post too fast and thought you meant THIS weekend.
I’d love to go – as I said, I’ve been looking for an excuse.
