Really? You can't find more productive ways of shedding half a pound out of your pack than that? Give us something sensible to consider that we can all really use. 👎
For anyone researching Owl's Head, I want to mention the Black Pond Bushwhack as the way to go. The pond itself was the highlight of the hike when I did it during foliage season. Great view of the Bonds. Bushwhack is a misnomer...it's an easy to follow herd path and with any GPS device it's a breeze.
I agree, Black Pond Herd Path is a preferred route. I also suggest going down the Brutus Bushwhack (herd path). It's much easier to go down than the slide, though you don't get the views. It branches off at a large boulder (VW Beetle size) that you'll see on the way up, and comes in right near the last brook crossing.
Being from Quincy this video drove me nuts lol you were on BUCKS HILL!! Had me screaming in my car. Just finished the out and back in 90 degrees. Trust me this trail can kick your ass more than some of the NH 48 lol
l think l was 8 or so when my family and l hiked lmp Face. 60 years ago. At the top l found out that my older brother, who hung back, was afraid of heights. l ventured much closer to the edge. l must have been a tireless billy goat back then. When l revisited the Webster Cliff Trail [White Mtns] sometime since 2000 l was shocked at how relentlessly steep the trail was. All's l noticed whenever we went up Webster Cliff was the the clouds were MC Escher dramatic and the cliff-top view was spectacular. Way back when! Nice, nostalgic vid. Thanks!
I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time and I can't find the answer. On the one hand, I keep reading/hearing that the cartridge should not be exposed to high temperatures. On the other hand, the burner (especially the one screwed onto the cartridge) heats up to very high temperatures and is in direct contact with the cartridge. The problem especially concerns small burners from China, such as the BSR3000. I always have concerns and fear in the back of my mind. Please explain.
Mine started to glow red and bend/melt with a pot of water in a Stanley pot. Wasnt even on high. Did buy on Amazon but it seems like the real thing... Was next to water and it may have been windy blowing the flame into the arm. At least thats what I think happened.
i got the Etek city super cheap one from amazon used it a few times no issues yet, though mine only has to last as long as the fuel can as it is part of an emergency bug out bag i hope to never need. i still break it out and use it to maintain the skill of cooking that way a few times a month. primary stove is a multi-fuel stove though it wont boil water fast like these little rocket butane stoves.
