My Favorite Links

Mountain-Hiking: This link was submitted by Mountain-Hiking is a great blog that summarize trips to peaks in the Catskills, Taconics and Adirondacks. The site is very clean and well thought out. The author includes trails that do not lead to high peaks but are interesting and rewarding. The trails have a great mix of verbal and pictorial description. You will also find information on equipment and other interesting topics.

AnyPlaceAmerica: This link was submitted by AnyPlaceAmerica for their website. I don't normally list website promoted by the website but this one seems to be a good one. This website categorizes topo maps, points of interest and places to visit by first breaking them down into water, land and manmade. Points on interest within each of these categories are further broken down into type like forest, woods, summits and valley. Within each of these types the points of interest are grouped by state.

This link was submitted by Rider University. It has a lot of useful information on how to prepare for the disasters that would never happen to you while hiking and camping.

This link was submitted by Dan Ray. His "SurvivalDan" website has good information including some great videos on fire starting.

This link was submitted by Chris Cole. His camping guide has plenty of good information especially for people who have not done very much camping. While you are on his site, check out the rest of the information on kayaking, hunting and fishing.
