On July 4, 2005, the RMC released a substantially
upgraded 8th edition of its classic mountain guide book, Randolph
Paths: Guide to the Northern Presidentials and the Crescent Range.
This new edition of Randolph Paths, which was first published
in 1917, is much more than just another update. The new guide
features entirely new trail descriptions, gathered by a team
of a dozen RMC volunteers.
The 2005 Randolph Valley and Northern Peaks
Trail Map is included, in a back cover pocket.
The 2005 Randolph Valley and Northern Peaks
Trail Map is printed on heavyweight Tyvek and includes the RMC's
new trails. The reverse side of the map features an artistic
and useful new addition-four, large scale illustrations of panoramas
from RMC trails, complete with peak identification.
Guide to the Cultural and
Natural History of the Four Soldiers Path
The RMC's new Four Soldiers Path winds
its way north through Randolph Community Forest, onto the Kilkenny
section of the White Mountain National Forest, and ends at the
wild and rugged Pond of Safety. The club's interpretive guide
provides interested hikers with a fascinating tour of the cultural,
historic and natural history to the lands traversed by the path.
The old Crag Camp was torn down, and then
burned, in the spring of 1993, to make way for the new building.
In this unique collection of stories, tales and anecdotes, RMC
members and other hikers recall their own personal memories that
helped make the old Crag such a special place.
