<h1>4,000 Footers Peakbagger's FAQ</h1>
</div> <!-- header div -->
<div id="main">
<p>I have attempted to answer the most common questions that appear
on the bulletin boards that deal with hiking and peakbagging in
Northern New England (Maine, new Hampshire and Vermont). If you
have suggestions for further questions please post them on the
site's <a href="http://www.voy.com/76694/">Peakbagging
Forum</a>.</p>
<p><b>Unless mentioned explicitly, information here applies to the
normal hiking season, which extends roughly from Memorial Day to
Columbus Day. Conditions in winter, and in the potentially equally
dangerous late fall and early spring, are very different and
require a completely different approach.</b> Late spring is
<a href="http://www.greenmountainclub.org/page.php?id=60">Mud
Season</a>, when there is a mixture of mud at lower elevations and
melting snow at higher elevations, it leads to unpleasant hiking
and to damaging erosion of trails.</p>
