you my friend, are a bad ass.
yeah toss em in hiker boxes along the way, someone will def come by and grab them up and you wont be trashing up the shelters!
I just finished from amicalola to fontana dam and the early march starters should be way beyond franklin and into the smokies by now. I was hiking with a fairly good pace and had to take a zero to...
I've got a friend meeting me close to Woods Hole Shelter Friday night, so I should see you there Saturday!
hahahah aint that the truth
see I'd like to be in the high 20s as far as pack weight..I'll live with what I've got I guess.
Meh, I'll probably end up mailing some stuff home in the beginning anyhow!
hmm..that is an excellent point.
I'm trying not to mail myself any food but if it comes down to that I guess I could. I was trying to just resupply at the towns as I go along
On the last trip I went on, I underpacked food-wise..so this time I probably overpacked, which is quite alright with me.
When I get to the smokies I'm gonna have to figure out how I should...
truer words were never spoken. It's obvious that im bringing items i could live without (i.e. ipod, book to read, pillow, etc). but i can justify each as much as I can food!
I'm trying to look at the things ive packed but I essentially WANT all of them. Im interested to see what i choose to get rid of along the way
It is with food. I'll be bringing along two water bottles. I've got a water bottle holder on my pack so im not too worried about that added weight as im used to hiking with a platypus bladder which...
I just weighed in at 34 lbs. and I'd like to eliminate things I know I wont need..but I want most things I have in there.
Heaviest items are food..and well, i can easily get rid of those into my...
I was looking to get into the 28-35 lb marker? Is that legit?
Gah! I guess this will be quite the experience then! I don't think I can deal with waiting any longer!:sun
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you...
while cares will drop off like...
I dig this one:
"There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as...
had to delay leaving for dahlonega until tomorrow. Wont be on the trail til the 4th now..I'm hoping some of this will melt by then
Me too! I'm happy but really sad at the same time.
I guess I might have to delay my leave for a few days. CRAP
I'm planning to start mine tuesday...
was driving down to dahlonega to scope everything out tomorrow.
is this a bad idea?
Im leaving to head down to dahlonega from charlotte nc tomorrow. I hope this weather doesnt delay my trip!
get well LW
Those are all good points. I feel like I will begin to get my trail legs then decide on the best strategy.
I'm just tired of trying to plan and am ready to get out there!
20-25 miles a day? Were you riding a bike?;)
March 3rd for me! See you guys out there!
