Chris is a hiker, trail runner and photographer who will share some stories of his recent hikes in and around the Whites. I’m going to ask him to highlight some areas of Western NH that we don’t often talk about. Stomp gives his tips on Self Rescue - when should you and when should you not. Also sitting in with us is one half of the popular PUDs Podcast - Nick Sidla. Nick is going to add his perspective on a variety of topics including - NH trails get overrun with poorly behaving tourists during leaf season and it is all Stomps fault, plus snow has arrived on the higher summits this week, Moose safety tips, Space and Alien news, Safety courses in Avalanche and Snowmobiles, some history segments - Stomp looks back at the case of a Dartmouth Student who went missing on an outing club hike in 2019, I’ll share an AMC snowshoe trip itinerary from February of 1908 and we will review a trip report to the site of the Old Man on Cannon from the Summer of 1908. Plus Stomp hikes Lafayette, and we will cover recent search and rescue news.   This weeks Higher Summit Forecast   Donations + Guests Go Fund Me - Peter Gibney About Chris Chris Instagram PUDS Podcast   Donations to Hurricane Helene Care of: Stacey Manney 942 Yorktown Dr,  Charleston SC 29412   Topics Stomp the smoker Happy 8th Anniversary to Redline Guiding Artist Bluff is overrun with leaf peepers Snow on Mount Washington Hurricane Helene Donations Welcome back Nick Sidla from PUDs Podcast Moose encounters, dead horses, Yosemite Death Space Rockets and Alien Radio Signals Cold weather classes History Segments - Dartmouth Rescue - Trip reports from 1908 One Direction, Dad Jokes, Coffee, Beer, Recent Hikes, Notable listener hikes Guest of the Week - Chris Gothberg Stomp’s guidance on balancing self rescue with calling for help Recent Search and Rescue on Mount Lafayette Show Notes Apple Podcast link for 5 star reviews SLASR Merchandise SLASR LinkTree Redline Guiding Artist Bluff - Safety concerns raised as peak foliage draws crowds in NH, officials report several rescues Friends clean up litter left behind by tourists Legislative changes? 2 more storms to keep an eye on Notable Moose of the week?  Tips for safe moose encounters A moratorium on blowing up dead horses.  Yosemite hiker crushed by tree Congrats to Elon Breakthrough Listening Project Wind Chill calculator Eastern Snow & Avalanche Workshop Snomo safety courses are back.
