Have you firm plans yet? I'm 64 years old and did some hiking on the trail last year in VA. Might be interested in joining you for a few weeks. I too have a car available. Live in NJ. Let me know.

Kermitt, let me know what your plans are. I'm flexible anytime after Labor Day through mid-October.

Kermitt,

Have you made plans to hike in October? Looking for a partner? I'm the same age and hike pretty much the same # of miles daily.

I'm looking for someone to hike with in the northeast (anywhere between Harper's Ferry and CT) for around a week during mid-to-late Sept or early Oct.
I'm 64, live in NJ, and have a little...

I have tried the MREs with dehydrated ramen meals I prepared at home, and they work fine. Light weight and easy to use. No muss, no fuss - and they are light to carry. One per meal so best if you're...

Who are the Myakka Mules? I live in Sarasota in the winter...just getting into AT hiking. Where will you be hiking to use the Trail Journals? Do you hike down south in the winter?

I might be interested in doing the LT north to south in Sept., starting around the 19th. I'm 64 and would also be willing to do 12-15 miles a day. Tell me more about your plans.

Yes, the forum pages are very slow to load.

When are you going? Are you going by yourself?

Hi Chris,

That's a shame. Oct. 10th would be too late of a start for me. Good luck. Enjoy the hiking. If anything changes let me know.

I would feel comfortable doing 10-12 miles per day, although I can do more. The most I've done is 18 miles, which was on the last day of a 3 day section hike in southern VA - only 'cause I had to in...

I might be interested in joining you. I'm free late Sept to mid-Oct but not late Oct. I can take as much time as needed. Let me know more about your plans.

Hi Redhat,

I have a ULA CDT, which I purchased last month and have used only for three days of hiking. Needless to say, it is in "mint" condition. I purchased it thinking that I would be doing a...

I have a Rainbow, and I would definitely not suggest fitting two people in it. Look at the specs again. It is a one-person tent.

I have tried making Mac & Cheese FBC style with Kraft Mac & Cheese, and it doesn't seem to turn out right - too watery. Does anyone have any suggestions how to do it? Also, what brand is most popular?

Jim, have you solidified your plans yet for your hike this summer? I might like to join you for a portion of it. I'm 63 with some hiking experience. I live in Cherry Hill, NJ, not far from Upper...

I just section hiked Dickey Gap to Damascus with my AT&T iPhone and got 0 reception on the trail and 0 reception in Damascus and the surrounding area. The iPhone does, by the way, have a free...

Whole Foods has a sharp cheddar called Seaside English Cheddar (http://www.thebestlife.com/food_nutrition.php?st=&fid=123743) that has an unrefrigerated shelf life of several weeks. They also carry a...

I'm going to section hike from Dickey Gap to Damascus in VA the week after Trail Days and want to know if I need to bear bag my food. I see some hikers keep their food in their tents, while others...

Mike, are you planning to do some section hiking this spring or early summer?

I just purchased the Rainbow, haven't taken it out of the box yet but hope to get to it soon. I'd like to know what you think of it.

Would you be interested in hiking the NJ part of the AT? Or perhaps 3 days to do the Batona Trail in southern NJ? I am free week days or weekends. I'm the elder 63 year old guy.

Hi! I'm thinking about taking the May 2nd course, too, and I live in Cherry Hill. I see you love in PA. What kind of transportation plans have you made?

Anyone up for a day hike this coming Saturday (4/16) or one day next week?

Carbo, did you get started yet?
