Tax rates are not at an all time low, it is mind boggling that you think that. Add in all the fees (which are taxes under a different name) then add in all the regulations and you get a Govt that...

I am pretty sure Socrates is behind this.
1. Govt agency says it has a shortfall. Solution: Tax citizens.
2. Govt agency doesn't look at how save costs by downsizing positions such as "transgender park experience specialist" <-- yes I am...
No. I mean wolves. And in Maine, apparently moose. The wolves ate up all the food supply of the cougar (oops Yellowstone ecologists). Time to thin the herd. We tried organizing a drum circle to...
Nice post attraildreamer.
I spent some months in New Zealand hiking the TA and all I did was bring cash to exchange upon landing ($800 US) then I just used my debit card at the various...
I look forward to the day when smart phones can truly double as GPS units. I've been very frustrated with my old Garmin Colorado 400 -- it's not easy to use, it takes forever to boot up, and using a...
Can you hunt moose in Maine? Sounds like a few seasons are in order. Demand for classes on how to hunt wolves here in Montana sky-rocketed recently. Dang over-sized rats are out of control!
What's juvenile is talking about off-setting costs without first cutting costs. This is a money grab. Then someone will claim that the new Govt jobs created to enforce and process this fee (jobs and...
An incomplete list of "things that will hurt feet"
1. Pavement
2. Heavy backpack (that weigfhts goes straight down to your dogs)
3. The wrong shoes
4. Lack of use for years prior to use (gotta...
I recommend either buying on site here, or buying items in advance from a US store and picking them up or shipping the items to somewhere like a hostel at the start of the trail, etc.
Not sure of...
I enjoyed Pyroman's journal, always fun to read good journals. Just ignore the resident troll above who craves attention yet uses a name trying to suggest otherwise :p
Someone needs attention. Again.
Anyways, thanks go to the OP, I was looking for more journals to read, I remember reading some of his stuff before.
I imagine you'd need something larger than an ipad else you'd sleep horribly. Those things would only cover your bum or head depending on how you plan to sleep on it.
I dunno, ask my sherpa.
Excellent write-up and thank you for doing it, too bad some folks had to chime and critique your donations. They are like people who ask your opinion and get upset if your opinion is not what they...
Plenty of good options here...pretty much just buy of more of what you normally buy, outside of those things you normally cook. And remember, it's possile to eat instant mashed potaties cold--they...
Not many Montanans hike the CDT for day hikes and such. There are so many other places to hike, closer to the population centers (as such they are here) and so many others thing do (rafting, etc).

I use a Mountain Laurel Design Burn. Love it. Its not in your list and smaller than what you want, but thumbs up for MLD.
Are you saying that theft is ok, or not important, if it's just a little?
I thought the following was well known:
1. Rainman is indeed the kind of guy catered to by the AMC-like systems in New England, which is perfectly fine, just don't cross the Mississippi with that...
Agreed.
And there is no relationship between ultra light and hostel use. The only correlation there is made in the mind of a guy who stubbornly carries 50 lbs + of gear while claiming anything...
Hey thanks, that's a neat site.
Today's hike post poned due to insomnia and sleep at 3 AM ugh! Headed there tomorrow.

Look for Columbus, MT, it's along I-90, the track down the roads to the South...
Yes, roll up the sleeves (most long sleeve hiking shirts have loops/buttons on upper arms. Vented backs and sides, unbutton the shirt as needed on hot days (unless you're female of course). And...
Leg and arm warmers?
Call me old fashioned, but, pants and a long sleeve shirt.
