If you were a...- The questioner chooses who answers, then that person gets to ask the next question of whoever she...

Just an update - it's a little tricky to get to the right thread for the membership application. Here's a direct link to the forum thread about membership where you can download and print out the...

The Sheltowee Trace Association is up and running. Our goal is to promote the use and maintenance of Kentucky's Long Trail. Become a founding member before the end of the year (it'd be a great...

I use the Diva, too, and love it...mostly. The first couple of days are so heavy that I have to use a pad backup and cleaning up is really messy. It's the same no matter what I use, so I stick with...

I'll be there - I left an RSVP on sheltowee.com

Just got back from a week in the Smokies. Afternoon thunderstorms every day, along with straight line winds one day that scared the **** out of us. No drought problem this year. Only spent a few...

Mountain laurel, rhododendron, and azalea are blooming in the Smokies! Felt like I was a bride following the flower girl on parts of the Sugarland Mountain Trail.

We like to bet on how far into the show it'll be before we either see his bare a** or he whips it out. He does it EVERY episode - I think he's a closet flasher.

My first trip included: jeans and cotton shirts; plastic poncho so thin you could almost see through it; no shelter except the poncho I expected to be able to use as a tarp; a rectangular bag that...

There was a front page article in our little local paper last week - Berea, KY officially has bears again. One ran out into the road near the Pinnacles (for those of you who know where that is). ...

I've been hiking solo since I was 18. I also have spent years hiking with just me and my kids. In all that time I've only had one situation where I felt uncomfortable because of another hiker. I...

I collect crap everywhere I go - postcards, brochures, maps, magnets, bumper stickers, patches.... I have a plastic bin full of of this stuff. I'm sure I'd send off for the 2000 miler patch, simply...

So many trails...so little time

We had one of those, too, but I lost it in the divorce:) Went to replace it a few years ago, but not only couldn't I find one, the 20 year olds at the outfitter didn't even know what I was talking...

It's been so long since I've hiked without kids, I don't even know what my preferred hiking rhythm is anymore. And I have no idea how long it would take to set up/break down camp if it was just my...

In my mind, my two oldest kids (15 & 17 right now) and I will be on the trail in 2010. But, there are a lot of "it depends on..." attached to that. I'm fairly certain at least one of us will be. ...

Please stay on topic.

The midwife for my middle child recommended castor oil. An hour later I was in labor. Worked for my third baby, too. According to the midwife, you have to be really close (like 24 hrs away) from...

Sorry I can't help - I'll be out of town. You could also try posting here:

I'm pretty sure I saw it at the Kroger in Richmond. If I remember right I didn't buy any because they had tuna and salmon packets on sale for $.99 that day. I don't shop there every week, but I'll...

My daughter has a stuffed animal that's been on every trip since she was little. She takes a picture of it every day at a different spot.

Go for it!!! Your daughter has more backpacking experience than many folks who attempt a thru.

My 15 yo daughter and 16 yo son started talking about a thru a couple of years ago. We're...

I picked up several pairs of men's swim trunks on clearance last fall - $5 each. I cut out the liners on all of them and turned 2 into skirts. Really comfy and dry fast. And the big flowery...

Thanks for the link! Great site!

How about a list of all the AT books/videos?
