Emmons is the worst of the bunch, and you might as well get it out of the way. After you do Seward, you could descend down the Ward Brook herd path, but it's in horrible shape. Best to go back to the split and down Calkins again.<br /><br />Neil's guidance on the forum (and others)is quite accurate. I think they all agree.<br /><br />Thanks for reading, and good luck!Telemarkmikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14244934063930648765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029293787639958559.post-35467492332022065462012-08-27T07:52:36.214-04:002012-08-27T07:52:36.214-04:00thank you for the excellent info. myself and 3 ot...thank you for the excellent info. myself and 3 others are going to try to tackle D-E-S in a couple of weeks. Couple of ?'s if you don't mind...<br />Sounds like you took the Calkins Brook up/back. Almost looks like the 3 peaks form a T shape with the C-B hp (from your gps screenshot). You went from D to E, then back to D and then over to S? From S, do you need to go back to D to catch-up with the hp?<br />Was it just personal preference, or any reason you choose D to E 1st vs. D to S 1st? <br />We're getting older, may want to knock out the more difficult 1st, from what I have read S may be somewhat more difficult than E.<br /><br />Thanks again, excellent report!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029293787639958559.post-84295957101834315092012-08-07T18:42:07.878-04:002012-08-07T18:42:07.878-04:00I'm glad you are finding my TR's to be hel...I'm glad you are finding my TR's to be helpful.

She'll hike Nippletop this weekend, leaving Gray and Skylight - like you - to finish on later this month.
