Nifty little brown hiker signs keep you pointed in the right direction. And its not reall a right “turn” per se……rather the road takes a bend (which I actually think is left, not right.) The trailhead is right after you cross a wooden bridge.

And Michael, I think the other would protest quite a bit if all I wore was a smile! 😆 😆

Finding enough motivated individuals to cover even some of the 48 peaks is apparently tough enough….how can you expect to find 770 individuals, some who would have to whck through some of the nastiest stuff in all the mountains for hours on end, to fly a flag that most likely will not penetrate the tree canopy, all so they can come out looking like a bear attack victim?

McDonalds started as a family food chain. They grew within their confines of burgers. They did not branch out into sushi, Chinese food, pizza and fried chicken. Flags on the 48 means the 48.

Need I say more?

As for expanding to the 115 and the 770 3’k s, MtnMagic your more than welcome to organize it. 48 is tough enough.

Call me naive, but if it is expanded to the 115’s 770 3’ks and so on, can it no longer be considered “Flags on the 48!” Expanding the scope of the FOT48 hike to have people fly other flags other than Old Glory, and dedicating peaks to certain people is one thing. But as far as Im concerned flying American Flags from every nook and cranny of the White Mountains would turn this more into a grandstanding publicity stunt than what it was intended for….a memorial hike. JMHO

I cant actually vote either since 2 answers fit for me….I learned it from you guys on Hike-nh, so that would be Hike-nh/friends.

Awesome……so who signed up to fly the flag on the moon?

You may already know this, but there *ARE* flags on the moon! And no, I can’t see them in the Astroscan (small, portable telescope). Just call me the ‘peeping Tom’ 😆

Yeah, but they cheated…..they didnt hike up there 😆 :flag:

Just a note… New Hampshire hiked to Owls Head this weekend… IN THE RAIN! I rest my case. :angry:

Jen made an astute observation….The only time I have hiked WITHOUT her I had BEAUTIFULLY clear skies, sun and warm weather. She wonders if perhaps SHE is the cursed one 😆 😉

PLEASE DO!!!!! Right about now Im at my wits end….I sure could use some luck.

And maybe I could moon Owl’s Head for being such a little bugger to Bill, Jen and I this past weekend. Hey, at the very least Sherpa John gets a show 😮 😆 😆
