The link is at the top right. "Day Hiking in Rutland County Vermont" Basically, since it is a Facebook group, anyone can post if they want to go on a hike. Usually someone will respond. To date there is 122 members but some are not local. There are a handful of regular hikers that will attend these scheduled hikes. Personally, I have met a few great folk through this group who are avid hikers. I had thought of opening a Meet Up group but Facebook is free and for the 20% of members that do hike I don't think its really worth paying for...well at least not now. There is also thought of turning this group into a non-profit organization. I will see what the stats are at the end of it's first year and see if it's got enough umph to create it. <br /><br />Yes it was warm enough to swim but there really wasn't anyplace to go swimming other than the pond. The river that the falls are on is ice cold.Jobiwanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06984015296992192065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150756942039395261.post-31184185947531612172011-07-13T17:27:14.008-04:002011-07-13T17:27:14.008-04:00Hey Jobiwan, choice day-hike!

Our little point-and-shoots have held up great, and they have the new mirrorless dlsr (dmc-g3) now that are small like point-and-shoots that might interest you. I'm not sure any of them are considered rugged though. <br /><br />Let us know when you find what's best for you!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884980083452512259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150756942039395261.post-89467184187218473532011-06-30T11:35:32.251-04:002011-06-30T11:35:32.251-04:00Our camera =( I really loved that Kodak.

Three years of use on the trail for a point and shoot is actually pretty good though. For heavy travel, I use a Canon Rebel Digital SLR that I've had for almost 5 years. It takes fantastic pictures but I do have be a lot more careful and it adds a lot of weight to my pack.<br /><br />I recently tested and wrote a review on Panasonic's new GPS enabled point and shoot.<br /><br />http://mytraverse.blogspot.com/2011/05/trail-testing-gps-enabled-panasonic-dmc.html <br /><br />This particular camera was far from being ruggedized for trail abuse, but the GPS category is definitely one that you'll want to look at if you're in the market for a new camera.<br /><br />Keep taking those pictures my friend and I will look forward to your future posts!Trail Guyhttp://mytraverse.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150756942039395261.post-41461605741289287492011-06-29T10:31:56.656-04:002011-06-29T10:31:56.656-04:00Sorry for your loss! :-)
We completely understand...Sorry for your loss! :-)<br />We completely understand the sentiment! We panicked a few weeks back after a trip to the zoo. Halfway through we realized that neither of us had the camera. We spent a lot of time on the zoo's playground that morning with our daughter, and assumed we lost it there. We returned, looked everywhere, asked the info desk...nothing. I'm serious about panicking. We have a 16-month old, and I'm not ashamed to say that we take A LOT of pictures of her in A LOT of places. We ordered a new one within an hour of returning home. Fortunately the zoo called the next day to tell us the cleaning crew had found it that night. We were really relived at finding the camera, and being able to cancel our order for the replacement!Family Wildshttp://familywilds.comnoreply@blogger.com
