I was in error in my last post: The OP does not get $10.00 when a new member joins through his link, rather the OP gets a $10.00 credit once the new member buys something.
Here is the link to the affiliate program. You are right about disclosure. It is one thing if I visit a person's website and click a link to a store and they receive a kick-back (I have the same...
Foot Levelers
They lasted the entire trail, but were in bad shape by the end. They were two years old when I started. These are the best insoles I have ever had. I got mine through a...
When I went thru in the Smokies I changed up my itinerary from my permit after the first night due to a storm. In fact every time I have hiked in the Smokies I have ended up with a slightly...

I have a 2005 (or 6) Gregory G-pack that has served me well for many years. I have used this on many miles of trails including an AT NOBO. This thing has seen abuse since day one and has weathered...
If you want any trail that connects to the AT to be the AT for your hike it will be. Hike your hike and make it what you want. There is no reason to impose your desires on everyone else...
