About the Author

Lafe Low is a lifelong New Englander. He spends nearly all his free time outside skiing, hiking, skiing, camping, skiing, kayaking, skiing... you get the picture. He has nearly reached his goal of having his garage look like an REI or EMS basement sale. He has worked as a writer and editor for decades, launching his own magazine, Explore New England, in 1995. After that, he went on to be the editor of Outdoor Adventure. Most of his career has been with various technology and business publications. The tech stuff pays the bills; the outdoor stuff feeds the soul. He is also the author of Best Tent Camping: New England (fourth edition) and Best Hikes of the Appalachian Trail: New England. Helen Weatherall is a writer, sculptor, and environmentalist who prefers to spend her time outdoors. Having explored wildlands from Mount Washington to Montana, the Amazon to Sri Lanka, and much in between, Weatherall now lives in Ipswich, Massachusetts, with her husband, cat, and terrier.
