Welcome to the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue Podcast! Also known as SLASR. Join an experienced search and rescue volunteer and his friend as they discuss all things related to hiking and search and rescue in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.   This week we turn west to the Berkshires and the Catskills. Welcome back to our friend Stash from Inside the Line Podcast. Stash is the guy for all things hiking related to the Catskills. He is approaching his 100th episode so we wanted to have him come back in to catch up, he has some updates to share including an ill fated Pemi Loop, we’ll talk about trail maintenance and volunteering and Stash will compare some aspects of the Whites to the Catskills. Continuing our focus of pointing west, I’ll have a hiking recap of a recent trip to Mount Greylock which will include some history and tips for planning a trip out to the berkshires. All this plus Stomp hikes the Watcher and Eaglet, What is in Mrs. Stomps backpack? We snoop in her pack while she is out of town, snow predictions for this winter, when Elk attack, are survival hiking sticks the next big thing and Mr. Beast tries to do a good thing and it goes terribly wrong.
