When I click on the Trip Reports link in the right-hand frame on the BPL home page:

COMMUNITY INDEX
Forums | Reader Reviews
Trip Reports
People | Places
Podcasts | Expeditions

It takes me to this URL:

http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/display_forum.html?id=rTqUWtUG:70.112.0.71?forum=32

Which displays the following message:

The specified forum no longer exists or never existed.

My browser is Safari on an iMac.

Hi Mina,

I also have an iMac running Safari, and I have no problems accessing the Trip Reports section.

Apart from that, I can't offer you any other advice. Sorry.

Andy.

Well, prompted by your replies, I tried it several times from Safari and from Firefox. At first it seemed like Firefox was working and Safari wasn't. But then later it came up properly from Safari once. And then after that once it failed to come up from Firefox. So, go figure. Computers! At least now I know that the links might work differently at different times. (Do computers contradict the old saying that insanity is trying the same thing over and expecting different results?)
