Ok, sooooo, the Daks are lower temps than the Gunks? That what I was looking for. Or would the Daks be buggy that time of year because of recently melted snow/high moisture?

In the daks, it is either buggy, snowy, or, for two glorious weeks, an odd season called "Fall"...

Not saying you can't go as long as you're prepared, but I've never understood why people drive long distances when the area is sub-par the time of year they're going (a good example are the people that insist on taking summer vacations down to the Red for climbing from Ontario).

Bummer, good friends of our had to evacuate the house they just built because of the flooding. We thought no worries, they're not near a river, its just because their road might get washed out...
...to learn this morning their new house (with her catering business in it) took on 5 feet of water on the first floor.

We thought no worries, they're not near a river, its just because their road might get washed out... ...to learn this morning their new house (with her catering business in it) took on 5 feet of water on the first floor. You've posted photos before of Vermont flooding....what's up with that? While the rest of the east coast bitches and moans about what a let down Irene was, we got fucking nailed. I can't get to work today because the roads are ALL washed out. At one point last night, every single road in the entire state was closed except for the two interstates. We didn't get high wind, and it never was a torrential down pour, but we had about 10 hours of steady heavy rain...we got 6" of rain at our house yesterday. Now it's all working it's way down stream.

So every time you get a heavy rain, you flood. 'cause didn't you already flood once this year already?
I remember some pictures of a lake that had made its way into burlington or something.
