EMS minus -20 DOWN WINTER sleeping bag

$275 plus US shipping only. PayPal only.

This is serious cold weather winter sleeping bag

Measures (all measured from the outside):
— At shoulders: 28” wide x 10” tall
— At feet: 18” wide x 8” tall
— From feet to neck collar: 68”
— Thickness of down: about 3”
— Color: Orange

Clean and always stored loose.

Used for several trips but still in good shape with good loft. Definitely worth the price.

I'm not doing the winter overnight stuff in the near or distant future so it’s time to move it along.

It has plenty of life in it AND it’s about a 1/3 the cost of a comparable new bag

Very warm bag

West Mill Brook/ Dix Trail

Has anyone been there recently? I was curious about the road condition between the Northway and the gate. Passable? Blowdown or deep ruts? I walked in from Rt 9 in the spring but was hoping to shave off a couple of miles this time.

Meadows Lane

Earlier that usual, Meadows Lane is closed for the winter. Adds a mile to the Marcy Dam Truck Trail. Hadn't seen this noted elsewhere, so thought I'd add this detail.

Best Maps

I have had the Adirondack Nat Geo maps for about 12 years, since I really started getting into backpacking. Its really all I've ever known as far as maps go.

Occasionally when in high use areas like the High Peaks, I will meet people who have other maps that are perhaps less colorful and illustrated, yet seem more detailed and suited for the more experienced hiker.

My question is... what are the best maps out there in the opinion of the many experienced hikers on this forum? Are there those that are more suited for the novice versus the more experienced backpacker?

Coreys Road (Winter) Status?

Evening...

I know the gate at Coreys Road is SOMETIMES closed but other times open during the winter.

What's the determining factor? If any? Weather seems obvious but is that it? I've heard it's open / closed every other year? Any truth?

Please share your intel.

Thanks!

Ha-De-Ron-Dah Wilderness Question

I'm wondering where the hills are that have views. Per a Jun. 11, 2020 column in Lake Placid News... "If you are interested in short bushwhacking adventures there are some nice open summits like Coal Mountain, Quarry Mountain, Cross Mountain, 6-Mile Mountain and the cliffs over Lost Lake." No map I've yet found names prominences other than Bare Mt. and Moose River Mt. How do I find Coal, Quarry, Cross and 6-mile? (Have not yet connected to the LPN columnist.) Thanks.
