[edit] Build and Installation Instructions
Building the Bootloader, Kernel and Android File System
The final Release RC tag from L25x manifest for the source should be used. Perform a clean build of u-boot, x-loader, kernel and the android file system. Instructions on how to build can also be obtained from Android Wiki
Pre-built binaries from this release can be obtained from Package. Please follow the below instructions to modify the file system to make it work.
DSP binaries package
Pull in the DSP binaries and install them following the instructions in the readme.txt in the package. Features supported can be referred at OpenMAX page
IMPORTANT: First you need to rename/move a couple of libraries to make them work. The libraries are in /system/lib:
- libOMX.TI.AMR.decode.so
- libOMX.TI.AMR.encode.so
Rename them to something else (e.g. libOMX.TI.AMR.decode.so.bak and libOMX.TI.AMR.encode.so.bak). By default, AMR libraries have been already renamed in available pre-compiled binaries RLS25.INC2.5 Package.
If you are booting from NAND then once you have booted your filesystem, on your terminal type the following:
cd /system/lib mv libOMX.TI.AMR.decode.so libOMX.TI.AMR.decode.so.bak mv libOMX.TI.AMR.encode.so libOMX.TI.AMR.encode.so.bak
then reboot.
Connectivity package
Connectivity package can be obtained from Wilink package. For instructions to build and test, refer to Wilink wiki
Graphics package
To access the graphics package - following steps are required
- Send an email to 'email@example.com' requesting access to the OMAP – Mobile Gaming extranet
- You will get an e-mail as a response to your request. Follow instructions in the e-mail to register at TI extranet site
- Go to OMAP Gaming website - https://www-a.ti.com/extranet/cm/product/wtbugaming/wtbuext/general/homepage.shtml and log in with your newly created credentials
- Download the file named: OMAP36xx_Android_SGX_SDK_zoom3_20100506.zip referred as OpenGL®ES Graphics Android SDK for OMAP3630 Zoom3 Development platform Supports OpenGLES v1.1 OpenGLES 2.0 and OpenVG 1.1 on the web-page. Please note you will need to accept the licensing terms before downloading the package.
- Copy to Linux PC, after unzipping the package you should get Linux installer with the file name OMAP36xx_Android_SGX_SDK_zoom3-126.96.36.19966.bin
- You may need to give execute permission with below command $ chmod +x OMAP36xx_Android_SGX_SDK_zoom3-220.127.116.1166.bin
- Now run this installer $ ./OMAP36xx_Android_SGX_SDK_zoom3-18.104.22.16866.bin
- Read the license terms and accept them to install the graphics SDK on to your system. After successful installation you will get a directory with name OMAP36xx_GFX_Android_SDK in a given path. Refer the readme.txt file in this package for using the SDK.
[edit] Booting with zoom2 (OMAP 3430):
RLS25.INC2.5rc2 release is supported by Zoom2 (OMAP 3430). Pre-compiled binaries are already available:
Rename the files above by removing '_zoom2' (e.g. uImage_zoom2 to uImage) and boot as usual using the following bootargs:
nand unlock nand ecc hw nand erase setenv bootargs console=ttyS3,115200n8 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootdelay=1 mem=256M init=/init setenv videoout=omap24xxvout omap_vout.video1_numbuffers=6 omap_vout.vid1_static_vrfb_alloc=y omapfb.vram="0:4M" setenv bootcmd 'mmcinit 0; fatload mmc 0 0x81c00000 uImage; bootm 0x81c00000' saveenv boot
If you want to create your own build for zoom2; then consider the following updates to the build procedure.
Note that even when you do not need to re-compile the Android File System; if you plan to test Wifi you will need to clone (if it is not yet available in your environment) at least this particular project using the specified version within the manifest and re-compile as instructed below.
cd $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot make distclean make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap3430zoom2_config make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- cp $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot/tools/mkimage ~/bin/
cd $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/x-loader make distclean make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap3430zoom2_config make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- ift
Before the kernel compilation, you will need to download the RLS25.INC2.5rc2 patches for zoom2.
cd <path_to_kernel> git apply 0001-Page-flipping-frame-buffer-issue-FIXED.patch git apply 0001-Including-FM-during-kernel-modules-compilation-for-3.patch make CROSS_COMPILE=<path to compiler>/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- distclean make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- zoom2_defconfig make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- uImage
Kernel modules
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- modules cd $MYDROID/../myfs_25.INC2.5 cp -prf <path_to_kernel>/drivers/misc/ti-st/*.ko .
cd $MYDROID/system/wlan/ti/wilink_6_1/platforms/os/linux export ARCH=arm export HOST_PLATFORM=zoom2 export KERNEL_DIR=<path_to_kernel> export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- make cd $MYDROID/system/wlan/ti/wilink_6_2/platforms/os/linux make
Now you should have available:
- tiwlan_drv.ko
- tiwlan.ini
- tiap_drv.ko
- tiwlan_ap.ini
Copy these into your myfs folder. If you downloaded the pre-compiled binaries then by default is named as myfs_25.INC2.5.
cp $MYDROID/system/wlan/ti/wilink_6_1/config/tiwlan.ini $MYDROID/../myfs_25.INC2.5/system/etc/wifi cp $MYDROID/system/wlan/ti/wilink_6_1/platforms/os/linux/tiwlan_drv.ko $MYDROID/../myfs_25.INC2.5/system/etc/wifi cp $MYDROID/system/wlan/ti/wilink_6_2/platforms/os/linux/tiap_drv.ko $MYDROID/../myfs_25.INC2.5/system/etc/wifi/softap cp $MYDROID/system/wlan/ti/wilink_6_2/config/tiwlan_ap.ini $MYDROID/../myfs_25.INC2.5/system/etc/wifi/softap
Unless stated otherwise, ensure you have allocated firmware.bin included in Wilink package in the usual place ($MYDROID/../myfs_25.INC2.5/system/etc/wifi).

- SmartReflex is an adaptive voltage scaling technology, in which the supply voltage can be adapted to the silicon performance either from the static sense (e.g. adapted to the manufacturing process of a given device) or the dynamic sense (e.g. adapted to the temperature induced current performance of the device). This allows dynamically adapting the VDD1 & VDD2 voltages to the silicon characteristics and temperature to minimize active power consumption. It can operate under manual or automatic mode to suit PM SW needs. Though it is recommended to run the system at specified voltage & frequency as per selected OPP, the optimal voltage for a given frequency varies with the manufacturing process of the device and temperature. Thus, the optimal voltage for a given frequency is different for every silicon chip based on its silicon characteristics (hot vs. cold samples) and current temperature.
Note: SmartReflex does tuning around the recommended OPP voltage and never changes the OPP
To enable/disable SmartReflexН for VDD1 & VDD2, use the following commands, respectively:
# echo –n <value> > /sys/power/sr_vdd1_autocomp
The value <value> can be
0 – To disable
1 – To enable
# echo –n <value> > /sys/power/sr_vdd2_autocomp
The value <value> can be
0 – To disable
1 – To enable
[edit] Limitations/Known Issues
- Currently we support only MPEG4 video encoding. To test it open the camera (or camcorder) app. Once it is open, press <F1>. Select "Settings" from the menu. Once this menu loads, choose "Select Video Quality" and "Select Video Encoder" and set them to DVD-Video NTSC and MPEG4 respectively. See Test Execution Instructions
Random white screen issue
This is a known issue which happens due to change in GPIO pin muxing in beta and production boards. Reading the gpio_94 to determine production vs pilot units has shown not to be a reliable method. Now we will check the silicon version of the zoom2 unit based on the following:
If Silicon rev is ES3.1 or greater => Zoom2 Production Units. If Silicon rev is ES3.0 or lesser => Zoom2 Pilot Units
With this information we can determine the gpio value required for the lcd reset:
Zoom2 Production Unit => LCD panel reset gpio = 96
Zoom2 Pilot Unit => LCD panel reset gpio = 55
Refer to the commit ID 571770a16d95a0eaae9740ee0c58246700b345c7 for a fix.

Students trade traditional spring break for a week of service as Habitat for Humanity volunteers in Battle Creek, Mich.
March 19, 2010
DEARBORN / March 19, 2010---A dozen University of Michigan-Dearborn students spent their spring break becoming power tools pros while making a meaningful impact in the region as part of an Alternative Spring Break project earlier this month.
Rather than head for a warm and sunny vacation destination, the students traveled to Battle Creek, Mich. for a week of service as Habitat for Humanity volunteers, where they learned the art of drywall while refurbishing the interior walls of homes.
The students who participated are Sakne Abass, Haydar Ali, Sarah Alsaden, Stacy Boone, Marzia M Chowdhury, Manall Farhat, Jennifer Forrester, Hamzah Latif, Stephanie Nguyen, Sarah Qarana, Ashim Wadehra and Alexandra Walowicz.
I learned so much about the intense process of building a home and the amazing commitment the people of the project expressed, said Nguyen, a sophomore studying biology at UM-Dearborn.
Although UM-Dearborn has participated in the United Way for Southeastern Michigans Alternative Spring Break in the past, including hosting its Detroit volunteers in the campuss Fieldhouse last year, students in this years program had a more bare bones experience. They paid their own travel expenses and cooked their own meals, giving them confidence in the kitchen as well as on the construction site.
As a commuter campus, our students dont get the opportunity to live away from home, said Evan Finley, an AmeriCorps VISTA at UM-Dearborn who accompanied the students to Battle Creek as an advisor. Thats one of the reasons why this was such a great experience for them. It broadens their horizons and offers them experiences they normally wouldnt get. At first, some of the students were apprehensive about using power tools but by the end of the week, they were pros.
In addition, the students got a chance to see that other communities outside of Detroit are affected by the economys downturn. Its a different community but they are still dealing with the same issues as the Detroit area, Finley said.
Helping a community during an economic hardship and learning new skills are the top reasons why students chose to trade in their swim suits for tool belts this spring.
The most important thing I got out of this program was the satisfaction of helping build a great house that a family will be able to live in some day, said Forrester, a junior who is studying earth science while earning a secondary education teaching certificate at UM-Dearborn. It was great to see how different the house looked as we were leaving on the last day compared to the first day when we first got there.
Walowicz, a history sophomore at UM-Dearborn, agreed and noted that the most memorable moment of the trip was just seeing the finished product of our labor and how it would one day become part of someone's home.
The students also bonded with each other, making lasting friendships and connections in the community.
Even though there were people with different backgrounds, we all got together and worked toward one goal and that was to help someone in building a house, said Farhat, a junior studying human resources management and supply chain management at UM-Dearborn.
For Walowicz, the relationships enhanced the weeklong experience. I feel like I learned a lot from our site managers and also from the other people on the trip. We became a mini-family for that week and our compatibility as a group made everything fun, even the hard work!

Batch Control
Batch control, available in plastic and multicolor from 20 prints or more, lets you optimize your unit price by dedicating a print tray to your personal production run. Control every aspect, including number, orientation and even the layer thickness to find the mix of budget, quality and finish that best suits your needs.
Hollowing your model and adding holes for recovery reduces the material used, and consequently your unit price. This feature will hollow out the interior of your model where possible and let you choose where to place holes so that we can recover a proportion of the material.
Make the most of our review tools to get the best 3D print possible. Don't worry, these options don't edit your model in any way.
Cutaway View
Cutaway View gives you an x-ray view of your design so you can see it from all angles, inside and out before printing.
Solidity Check
Different materials are fragile at different thicknesses (also known as the material's solidity threshold). Sculpteo's automatic solidity check let's you review any potential problem areas before printing. If it's green, you should be good to go, if it's not, you should try a different scale or material.
The material you chose has a solidity threshold of around mm.

KENKEN for your Mobile
Fun, addicting, yet educational. The KenKen iOS and Android apps are perfect for the whole family!
KENKEN in the Classroom
Calling all educators! Join our FREE program to use KenKen puzzles with your students.
Follow the Leaderboard
Join the leaderboard by subscribing with us! Solve puzzles without using any hints.
Rules For Playing KenKen®
The numbers you use in a KenKen puzzle depend on the size of the grid you choose. A 3 x 3 grid (3 squares across, 3 squares down) means you use the numbers 1, 2, and 3. In a 4 x 4 grid, use numbers 1 to 4. A 5x5 grid requires you use the numbers 1 to 5, and so on.
The numbers in each heavily outlined set of squares, called cages, must combine (in any order) to produce the target number in the top corner using the mathematic operation indicated (+, -, ×, ÷).
Here's how you play:
- Use each number only once per row, once per column.
- Cages with just one square should be filled in with the target number in the top corner.
- A number can be repeated within a cage as long as it is not in the same row or column.
- To start, click on any square. A "number ring" appears with that grid's possible numbers. These numbers will also show up on the left side above the grid as the "Notes" box.
- Ready to fill a number in that square? Just click the one you want in the number ring. It will then appear in the middle of the square.
- Narrowed it down to a couple of numbers but still not totally sure? Click the numbers you want from the Notes box. They'll show up smaller in the square.
Hints: Also in the candidates bar are , :
- Clicking will place all possible Notes in the square.
- Clicking will get rid of all the Notes in the square.
- If you'd like to repeat a note (notes) in another square, simply drag the number from the original square to the new one. Click here to see the video of how it works.
- When you've ruled out one of your notes, click on it again in the Notes box. The number will disappear from the square.
- When you fill in a number in a square (by selecting from the number ring), any notes in that square will disappear.
- Changed your mind about a number? In the number ring, click the red eraser icon to clear the square.
- To hide the number ring, click the red "X."
- How to Use the Keyboard: You can enter numbers and notes by using the keyboard. Once you've selected a square, you can press shift and a number key to enter (or delete) that number as a note. Or, to just enter a number in a square, press that number on the keyboard (no shift). To delete a number or note, press C.

Androgyny never smelt so good
Va-va violet oil nestles next to chamomile and oakmoss to coax out your inner Ladyboy. Some say it smells a little like banana, while others pick up the deeper, earthy notes. LUSH perfumer Mark says "The banana it's some kind of joke. The finished scent on the skin is sophisticated and contemporary in my opinion". Ours too! If Ladyboy could talk, it would shout 'variety is the spice of life!'
- Designed for bare skin: Lady Boy smells best when sprayed directly onto your body.
- From down South: The sexy scent was inspired by Brazilian beaches and their uninhibited inhabitants.
- Main notes: Banana, seaweed, violet, chamomile, labdanum and oakmoss.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Alpine SWR-10D4 by John Pollard What's a component sub and why would I want one? A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back. Maximum bass output Alpine's Type-R subwoofers will bring big bass to just about any vehicle. The SWR-10D4 10" sub features a cone made from Kevlar® treated pulp — the same material used to make bulletproof vests — and its durable HAMR Santoprene™ surround allows for huge amounts of excursion. This sub was built for bassheads that want the best of both worlds: accurate response and otherworldly thump. Bring on the power The SWR-10D4 can handle an astounding 1000 watts of RMS power, so be sure to choose a suitable amplifier as these bass monsters definitely want lots of power. Its dual oversized 4-ohm voice coils offer the wiring flexibility you'll appreciate as your system changes and grows, so you can always pull maximum power from your amp. It works well in sealed and ported enclosures so you can choose what kind of bass you want to hear and feel. Note: If you are wiring this DVC sub for lower impedance, make sure that your amp is compatible. To drive this single subwoofer, we recommend a mono amplifier rated between 750 and 1500 watts RMS at 2 ohms.

Features Enclosure Compatibility Features Kevlar Reinforced Pulp Cone: This Alpine Type-R subwoofer has a two-piece structural parabolic Kevlar reinforced pulp cone. Kevlar adds strength and tear resistance to the woofer cone while maintaining the benefits of a pulp cone design. There is also an oversized inverted poly-mica dust cap, which increases rigidity and virtually eliminates cone distortion at extreme volume levels. HAMRS: The woofer features a High Amplitude Multi Roll Surround (HAMRS), made of Santoprene, that allows a large linear excursion and greater SPL. The HAMRS design allows extreme excursions without sacrificing valuable cone area. Progressive Spider: The progressive Conex spider has reinforced layer tinsel leads to ensure reliable and consistent control of the tinsel leads and eliminate any mechanical noise or interference often seen in high excursion cone designs. Compound Radius Curve Pole Geometry: Alpine's Patented Compound Radius Curve pole geometry ensures a symmetrical magnetic field, while optimizing flux density to reduce distortion and further improve power handling and output. Oversized Voice Coil: The oversized (65mm), high-temperature, 4-layer dual voice coils offer increased power handling to 1000W RMS / 3000W Peak. Dual Voice Coils: For system flexibility, the woofer has two 4-ohm voice coils. When the voice coils are wired in parallel, the woofer presents a 2-ohm load. When the voice coils are wired in series, the woofer presents an 8-ohm load. Spring Terminals: The spring post terminals are all located on one side of the woofer. The terminals will accept bare wire up to 8 gauge, pin connectors, or banana plugs. Jumpers: Included with the woofer are two voice coil terminal jumpers. These jumpers allow you to easily wire the voice coils in parallel (for a 2-ohm load) or series (for an 8-ohm load). Enclosure Compatibility Sealed Box Volume: The recommended sealed box volume ranges from 0.48 cubic feet to 0.93 cubic feet, with 0.58 cubic feet being the ideal size. Ported Box Volume: The recommended ported box volume ranges from 0.83 cubic feet to 1.38 cubic feet. The ideal size is 1.1 cubic feet, using a slot port measuring 10" (W) x 1" (H) x 20" (L).

Sweet sub. I have this powered by a kicker 1200.1. I don't understand how anyone can have a louder system without completely destroying their car. Anything more and id have to get a heavy duty alternator or something. Its in a bass bunker sealed box. This sub is wider than most subs its size because alpine puts a bit more effort into its looks. Had to jigsaw a bit of room out of the box but everything works great. Has the power to shake the car when needed but adds just the right amount of tight boom when its wanted. Will only be buying this sub ever if the one I have ever blows up. Been wanting one for about 5 years now and its everything I expected and more. Pros: High quality construction Loud Small enough to devote space to other things besides bass Looks cool Makes even the worst songs good Makes the commute amusing Cons: Get an amp that can power it fully its worth the extra bucks.

Written By John, Ruckersville, VA on Tuesday, April 08, 2014 Have 1 of these mounted in my '13 Silverado ext cab under my rear seat, in a custom .65 cu ft sealed enclosure running off an Alpine PDXM6, this thing bangs.

Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 5 out of 5 Clean Written By Jodyd, Louisiana on Tuesday, October 22, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Right away unboxing I noticed the build quality. Huge magnet, strong cone, beefed up rubber surround. I have it in a ported box 36hz., 1.25cu.ft., and an alpine xpower-55 (550w rms). I can tell the sub could take a lot more power but with that amp you can't go wrong. Very clean sound. If I adjust the bass a little I can make some stuff shake in the truck but I'd rather sq. I have the sub in a 2012 f150 super crew. It definitely sounds very good even in a super crew. Pros: Mounting depth is awesome very versatile, plays good even with half the rms power Cons: Can't think of one 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

In a sealed bassworks box with 500 watts rms together. Not enough power according to specs but no way they'd handle more. Worth the money but definitely not for anyone who wants a clear system.

Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value 1 out of 5 Very Disapointed Written By Zac, Provo,UT on Sunday, September 16, 2012 I loved this sub because it gave such clear bass and hit hard, i had it paired with my alpine 500 watt amp and after only 4 months the subwoofer stopped working one day for no apparent reason, i took the sub out of the box to find that the spider had come apart from the voice coil, very disappointing when you spend this much on a sub and it burns out within a few months of use.

Lonnie Kauk
Lonnie Kauk is a mountain man in the truest sense. When's he's not charging the Tahoe backcountry on his snowboard, he's on the hunt for pro-level rockclimbing challenges in California's climbing mecca of Yosemite Valley, the place Lonnie has called home since childhood. And the mountains of this region are literally in his blood—he's a direct descendant of Chief Tenaya, the Last Great Chief and Ahwahneechee tribe leader when Yosemite was discovered in 1850. This heritage is a source of pride and power for Lonnie, and he continues to give back to the Native community through a variety of outreach efforts. Through nonstop shredding in the massive parks of Mammoth, across the Eastern Sierras and around the world, Lonnie has evolved into one of the most focused and capable backcountry jumpers in snowboarding. For the past several years he's produced progressive film segments with Standard Films and a variety of other video projects. As one of the sport's most fearless when it comes to big flights, Lonnie is among the rare few willing and able to confidently step to 100-foot-plus jumps. It's made him an annual standout at Snowboarder Magazine's SuperPark and a highlight in videos like Standard's TB20, where he goes absolutely huge without ever sacrificing style.

Hopefully, no one misses my usual sentimental, philosophical TR. Because this one is neither of the two. This was a week all about labor, grunting, sweat, scrapes, bruises, blazing, bars, blood, blisters (someone else's), and brushing. So here goes, a nontraditional TR for me. Five days, five pics.
Day 1 found Klutzy Kat and I hoofing it up Liberty Spring Trail to the Flume Slide Trail. It was a warm day, but nothing too exceptional. We had two goals. One, this was a Patrol Trip for me, identifying needs for trail hardening and erosion. FST doesn't have a ton of bars, but over the years it has developed a few mucky, muddy, wet spots that were not there prior. So, these were duly noted and will be submitted to the AMC in the event they are deemed too much for a lone Adopter to handle. Plus, sometimes special rock hardening techniques are needed.
In any event, the pic for the day reveals a true need, blazing. The entire trail needs it, this is due to the fact that it also needs to be brushed out. Klutzy Kat and I did necessity brushing so blazes can be seen in the future, while primary blazing will be handled by the Adopter, so here you can see her putting up a blaze on a crucial corner for winter hikers where the trail turns off the old logging road grade and begins to climb the shoulder of Liberty. Our long-term goal was to reach the oft complained about 5th brook crossing for winter hikers, but alas, we only made it as far as the 3rd crossing for the day, but we would be back.
Day 2 was part work, part play. I did a Patrol early in the day. Then we bounced, weaved, and hooked our way down Mt Clinton Rd to meet an old childhood friend of mine, who incidentally, is also one of my brother's sister's-in-law (got that?) C is presently working on her 48 and her 2 daughters came along as well. It was a beautiful day for the Big E and we headed up Edmands Trail with great weather. Her daughters don't hike much, though one enjoys it much more than the other. We were all talking and laughing, remembering old hikes, thinking about future ones, and were totally distracted. I took the lead above treeline and was so lost in conversation, not paying attention, that instead of breaking right and heading up to Eisenhower, I shanked left and we headed towards Franklin and Monroe. I turned around at one point as big, white puffers were hiding and exposing features, only to see the big cairn atop E prevalent behind us. Gosh dang it, the girls are going to kill me. To their credit, not a single complaint, we all filed back, lunched atop Eienshower, and enjoyed a mellow trip down.
Day 3 was a bit more humid and hot. I trunged up Lonesome Lake Trail listening to everyone talk about swimming at the Lake. What an awesome idea I thought to myself, somehow I have to shave some time off the day and buy out a few minutes to do so myself. But the clock was ticking as we were due at my brother's for dinner with our entire (yet small) family. The goal for today was a Patrol & Scout, for on Thursday we were meeting a new Adopter who took on the upperhalf of the Lonesome Lake Trail this year. I have hiked this trail many times and encountered few. Not so today, for I bumped into 7 hikers throughout the trek. But I outlined my task by making mental notes on the way up, and more precise on the way down. I reached Coppermine Junction in an hour and ten minutes, not too bad I thought to myself, at least not for lugging all the tools on the way as well. The trail was in need of some brushing, which I did on the way down, and some new bars that we could install the next day, blazing would need to be done too, as some former trees used for blazing had fallen victim to storms over the years. But the main conclusion for the day was this. If you are doing Cannon, go this route. Its pretty, has a great section of boreal forest after the steep levels out, and it is sooooooooo much better than the badly eroded, neglected Kinsman Ridge Trail approach from the Tram lot or the equally dire Hi-Cannon approach, which is also in sore need of erosion control. I also learned if you want to go swimming at the Lake, give yourself ample time, for as sweaty, gross, dirty, and smelly as I was, I ran out of time to do so. I did meet a very nice, new NH State Park Ranger who was on her way up to the Hut to discuss some of the interpretive programs the State offers for visitors. She was super cool, and a recent transfer from the West Coast. We had some nice discussions about the "East Coast, White Mountain NH" way of doing things.
Ah, Day 4, we kicked some butt today. L is the new Adopter for the upper section of Lonesome Lake Trail, and requested a little extra guidance for her trail's specific needs after the Skills Session. We were glad to help. We bashed it but good. We cleaned out all old bars, installed new ones, and cleaned up outflow ditches as well. All this to control erosion and water flow from hitting and soaking the flats just before the bog bridges. When it came to building new wood waterbars there was a cornucopia of windfall spruce all over the place, it was a blast, and my Oxschenkopf axe was singing in the still, humid, moist air. We lunched at Coppermine Junction just in time to have a large group of not prepared hikers come bustling down to us asking where the Lake was. We told them they still had a mile to go, and seeing how they had no fluids or food, street sneakers had ridden up on the Tram, the wisest course may be (up to their discretion, of course) to return to the top of the Tram. They asked about going out all the way to the Lafayette Campground, then hoofing it back up the Bike Path. We calculated the mileage for them, and they seemed a bit overwhelmed. In addition, an adult member had turned up a bit lame with bad blisters, so there I was johnny- on- the- spot with my First Aid training and equipment and helped him out. Leaving them to come to a concensus (the kids wanted to push on, the adults not so much) they decided to turn back to the Tram, and thanking us for the advice, they went back. I want to say that L is a real workhorse. She has many commitments, not only her job, but also with NH Audobon and the SPNH, and here she was bustin' hump with us. What an inspiration, and she is a great volunteer to have on board in the Franconia South Region. On the way down we brushed and blazed some more, and finally L had to leave, already staying beyond her backin' out time. Klutzy Kat and I blazed until we ran out of paint, a mere 9 blazes from completion, then headed out ourselves, opting to take the Dodge Cut-Off & Hi-Cannon route out. As a note, the 2nd bridge on Lonesome Lake is scheduled to be replaced in the next 2 weeks, yes, that's the teetering, leaning one. And extra special kudos to the Croo that installed the new bridge at the trailhead. It specifically outlines the trail corridor, helping to ease erosion due to a multitude of herd paths along the brook bank.
And finally, Day 5, or as we called it: Flume Slide Redux. A few comments on this trail. It has been described as "seldom used". I would like to say I do not believe this is the case any longer. I have seen an ever growing number of hikers, of all abilities, over the years, and the same was true this visit. And I know what everyone is gonna say, "that trail needs a good brushing!", and of course, that is correct, it does. Allow me to say that some circumstances prevented the Adopter from getting on the trail last year, and this year those circumstances have eased, so it is my hope that soon this will be rectified. But for us working it this week, we wanted to help ease the confusion for summer and winter hikers, especially at all the brook crossings, so blazing was our priority. The last brook crossing was the one that needed it most, especially for the winter hikers. Though there was a faded blue blaze on a rock on the opposite bank, (which you can make out in the pic, it just can't fade fast enough for me) this would be no help to a winter hiker, and we don't blaze on rocks anyway. Throw in the fact that there were not too many prevalent trees (actually, try NONE) on the opposite bank, this would require more measures. So with loppers and my trusty new tool of the year, my Stihl PS 60, I went to work. As a result, there is a more defined trail corridor as well as a nice up-and-high blue blaze on a birch, that is, and will be, readily seen. The fruitage of this day's labors, therefore, are best exemplified by Pic #5, the above referenced brook crossing, new and improved, or at least I think so. We didn't get all the way to the base of the Slide (our goal) but we sure came close.
In conclusion, what a great week. Klutzy Kat is a blazing machine, and if you think OCD is a hinderance, well apply it to blazing and you will come to a different conclusion. I can't think of a better way to spend a week, with great people, the best mountains in the world, and the driving force of doing something, not because you have to, or get paid to, but for the sheer joy of wanting to.
And if anybody wants to hop on board, I have only one section of trail in the Region to be adopted, the stretch of Lonesome Lake from the Lafayette Campground up to Lonesome Lake. We would be glad to count you among our own.
Happy & safe trails!
Fisher & Klutzy Kat

Over the next month, beginning on Wednesday, about 18 T-45 'Goshawk' trainer jets from the Navy Training Air Wing 2 based in Kingsville, Texas, will visit off and on between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., the Navy announced Friday. They'll temporarily operate out of Naval Air Facility El Centro.

Palm Springs International Airport will be used for refueling, so residents can expect to hear and see about three jets a day, the Navy said in its email announcement to The Desert Sun.
About a year ago, the Department of Defense, in response to some local residents' complaint of excessive noise from jets taking off and landing from the Palm Springs airport, began cutting back on on military jet stopovers in the desert.
The Desert Sun asked readers what they thought about the temporary return of the jets.
Here are a few of those responses:
I live in the northern part of Palm Springs and have experienced the noise from the Navy jets. I love them! Their training flights give me a sense of security and pride in our country. Yes, they were ear splitting but they are an incredible testimony to our country. Bring on the T45s.

This is great news. Along with the overall growth trends throughout the valley from cultural, sports, and business activities, the Navy aviators should be saluted. These guys are protecting our freedoms and any minimal and momentary discomfort to residents, who of course moved in long after the airport was established, is a very small price to pay to help the flying proficiencies of these great Americans. Frankly, they should be welcomed by city and airport officials.

We should be welcoming OUR navy jets into the Palm Springs airport. Some people have complained about the noise yet want to have the best military in the world as long as it doesn't infringe on their life style. They should think about the life styles that our men and woman in the military (and their families ). Hearing and and seeing our jets makes me proud. Instead of complaining the next time you hear a military jet just say thank you and be grateful that you live in the USA.

Training Air Wing 2 is responsible for providing the fleet with newly winged Navy and Marine Corps aviators. The Air Wing consists of approximately 250 student naval aviators, 75 instructor pilots, 80 civilian personnel, and 100 T-45A and T-45C "Goshawk" aircraft.
