Part of the "Croo" in the White Mountains of New Hampshire; Fancy Threads for Hikers in Korea

You want diversity? We got diversity on the hiking blog today. These two stories are worlds apart. Or at least half-a-world.

First, an item on what it's like to be a member of the working "croo" in one of those wonderful huts you'll find in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The huts are a lifeline for hikers along the Appalachian Trail, and they're also a welcome spot for day and overnight hikers in those rugged mountains.

Not sure what to make of this next one. It seems many hikers in Korea are a bit overly concerned about how they look when they're hiking. Don't know about you, but I generally don't try to make a fashion statement when I'm on the trail.

Never been hiking in Korea. Maybe I need to add it to the list.

Our list next year includes Switzerland, Virginia, Vegas and Vemont. Visit our website and come join us:

See you on the trails.
