If you are looking for the best trails or locations for outdoor activities, like biking, boating, camping, hiking, fishing, or climbing, NH Outdoors is a very valuable Website. The aesthetics of the site, I will admit, definitely could use some work. When I first saw the site, I hesitated to follow the links, fearing it might be one of those trap advertisement sites. Nevertheless, I followed the links and was surprised by the great selection of information.

The First Year of Skiing in Review
by Jacob P. April 21st, 2009 | Skiing
Right now, I am just rounding up my thoughts from my first year of skiing. Quite frankly, I fell in love with skiing. I love the feeling of cold wind whipping against my coat, hearing snow crunch beneath my poles, and seeing my skis glide over powder. There is, well, nothing like it. I have a few more thoughts that I'll share below.
Here are some of what I thought were the best things. First off, I thought doing my school's ski club was awesome! There is nothing like skiing with a ton of your friends! Often we skied in groups as large

Stand Up Paddle Board

Rowing down the Charles River and looking ahead at the Mass. Avenue bridge, I saw a sight that confused me. Heading for the MIT boathouse, there was this man who appeared to be drifting across the river. He was standing straight on his legs, but I could see his arms moving. He appeared to be paddling with some sort of an oar, a very long one.
Coming closer to him, I saw that he was standing on what looked like a surfboard. It was probably one of the most interesting things I've ever seen on the Charles! It was just this

Hike Up and Ski Right on Down
by Bea April 7th, 2009 | Hiking, Skiing
Now here's something that I hope to do sometime in the near future. Are you like me, and are in search of backcountry powder? Well, there are a few mountains that offer opportunities like this, but one that I am certain about is Mt. Abram. Mt. Abram, located in Greenwood, Maine, just off Route 26 and right after Norway, is a great place to be on Wednesdays. For only $10 you can sign in for safety purposes, leave a phone number, and then hike up as far as you would like until you reach a point when you want to ski down.
