On Assignment? Yes!


Rumor has it that I'm "on assignment" to write a cross-country skiing and snowshoeing book for the Lake George, NY area this winter. Well, here I am on January 31st, 2008 at the Pack Demonstration Forest near Warrensburg, NY. But, I'll be in Florida on February 5th to lead a free Eco-tour for all my friends down there. Check my Events calendar on my webpage for details.

Why we write our trail guides


We took this photo a few days ago as we came off a little-known trail near Glens Falls, NY. The area we were at is closed during the winter months, but we investigated and found the man in charge of the facility. After a nice conversation he made it clear that the area is closed for everything else, but it is open for cross country skiing and snowshoeing any time there is enough snow. So this little known area will be included in our upcoming book on cross country skiing in the Lake George area. In the meantime, we've got a lot of skiing, snowshoeing and exploring to do. It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it.

Thank you for 2007!


I sincerely want to thank all of our customers, sponsors and supporters for an interesting 2007. I particularly want to thank those of you who followed the Common Man Tour on our 300 mile tour of the French and Indian War waterways. We had fun on the Hudson River, (shown in this pic on opening day, June 23rd), Lake Champlain, Lake George, (Never again) and the St. Lawrence River. If you missed any of our Blog entires, you can still go back and see them at: http://commonmantour.blogspot.com/
Okay, let's make the new year of 2008 just as much fun for all of us. Best wishes to all.
Roger
