"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
The BRP is best in the off season, during the middle of the week. Peak season on weekends you get bike riders followed by Floridiots who won't pass them.
I've done many parts of the App trail, from the Presidential range in NH, sections near Damascus, VA, and most recently Roan mountain. I sold my Osprey pack last year because I only intend to day hike from now on.
I have a Osprey day pack, & a bigger one, but I never use it...
I would really love to do that Presidential range as well... Very fascinating how the windiest place on earth is NH....lol
I hear yea, we avoid going weekend as the trails are full of tourist.. Go during the week we have the entire place to our selves most of the time..
I am going this holiday weekend though as a friend that has been sick, it will be her first time out in months & her first opportunity to lead..
We are going to a place called Machado post piles & it isn't even on the forestry maps so hardly anyone will be there..

Looks like rather recent volcanic activity. The Rockies are so much different than the Appalachians, because the Apps are the oldest mountains on earth. Your looking at geology that is 100's of thousands of years old, while I'm looking at millions of years old.
Here's me on the Prez. range, a very long time ago.

LOL. I used to do a lot of soil analysis for building foundations and I did a job for a new home, the owner was a small church preacher. Very nice guy, was very interested in my approach. I told him that when I look at a new excavation, I always look for Saprolite. That is soil that looks exactly like the parent rock that it has weathered from. When you find it, you know that the only way that it got there was that "God put it there millions of years ago", it is therefore "residual", and therefore anything below it will always increase in stability. Thus there is no possibility that man placed it (fill), or nature deposited it by wind or water (alluvial).
His response was similar to yours.
I explained to him that Jesus often spoke in parables to explain complex issues to simple minded men like us. I then asked him, why wouldn't God use parables in the early books to explain how he created the earth, its plants and creatures? His eyes opened wide and he didn't know what to say. I think I may have enlightened him.
