[cdt-l] is site up?

[Ken Powers]

Hi Linda,

I cannot get on the website. It looks like backcountry.net isn't being 
recognized as an internet domain. But I am getting a few emails. I 
subscribed and had the server send me the postings as email.

We just got back from a different adventure. We biked from home (SF East 
Bay) to Circleville, Utah. Biking was a new experience and will not replace 
hiking. We found we didn't like being confined to paved roads. And we didn't 
like the jarring associated with the 10 miles of dirt roads we traversed. We 
also found that taking pictures was much more difficult - stop the bike, get 
the camera, take a picture, put the camera back, start peddling again. 
Consequently we have fewer pictures. But it was an interesting adventure 
climbing the sierra. We crossed the PCT at Sonora Pass and there was still 
lots of snow at the pass.

The good news is that we got thru Area 51 without any alien intervention!

Hope the lists get back to normal soon for all us armchair hikers.

Ken

I'm confused.

How are people posting/getting on to CDT -l? I keep getting this message
when I try: The connection was refused when trying to contact
mailman.backcountry.net.

Is there a new way url?

Thanks.

Hey all,
      Update from a friends place in Wise River. I made it to Chief Josef
pass after starting at Chief Mountain June 4. The passes were a pain in the
butt and I hurt myself a wee bit coming south to Marias Pass, but other than
that, everything's going fine. There was still a good bit of snow above 6000
feet but good crampons took care of it. The Bob Marshall was a bit mucky but
as beautiful as ever.  I can't wait to hit Yellowstone despite the hoards of
mosquitoes that will be there and in the Wind Rivers. Ah well.

Any northbounders coming up on a place we can stop and have a chat? I'd
absolutely love some company, there's been almost no backcountry trafic that
I've seen, probably due to the incesant rain.

Good luck and happy trails to all,
