Hi,

I don't know why a source would be required in these instances when the linked pages clearly state that the stores are of the category they were written under as well as Canadian. None of the other stores listed in the article have a citation - I am unsure what the problem is. Aloofmathematicalproofs (talk) 12:32, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

My Comments on Mount Monadnock

My Previous comments on Mt Monadnock were actually based on my personal experience hiking the mountain on Thanksgiving of this year, and on previous occasions.

Monadnock is called 'one of the most climbed' mountains in the world, but the trail information is not complete. I feel that by adding information about the trail's poor quality, and reminding people that solid footwear is necessary, that information gap can be ameliorated.
