That's how much I weighed when I was your age! Same height too. Now, the height's the same but the weight.... Anyways, like the others said, don't worry about the weight loss or gain. Make sure you...

Well, it's been a little over 2 years since I through hiked. When I came back home and opened the door to my house, I looked at all of the stuff that I had and realized that I was perfectly happy...

Anyone know what happened to Vegemite? Did he finish? Anyone know his email address? Thanks

SNP was the easiest stretch of trail on my through hike. You can also cut back on the amount of food you carry if you plan on stopping at the waysides. As stated earlier, just be sure that they'll be...

I like the Carver's gap to 19E also. The hike to Overmountain shelter is 5.6 miles. Great view from the shelter/camping area. The hike from there will take you over Little Hump mountain then Hump...

I met him in Hiawassee when Morning Glory gave him a ride back to the trail. Great guy. Condolences to his family and friends.

Mistie - I'd love to hike with you but I'm starting on March 21st. Planning on 12 mile per day average, building up to more if the legs can handle it. Goal is to minimize town stops to save $ on...

I had more discussions with doctors on this topic. In my previous post, I stated that I carried Epi-pens and Benadryl. Based on the discussion with them, I'm going to change the Benadryl to a liquid...

Sweet. I think I'm going to get one.

Hiked from Springer to Hot Springs as 3 different section hikes for a total about 270 miles. Also have hike a couple of other sections as well. All together, about 300 miles. The longer section hikes...

I've had dealings with people who either want to join in and influence the situation or simply want to help according to what they think ought to be done. It seems to always end up being a disaster....

This will be a good time in my life for me to do this. Looking forward to it.

Thanks to all for the hard work. The shelter looks very nice.

I got the quick disconnect for my Camelbak so I can remove the bit valve, connect my water filter and pump directly into the bladder through the tube without having to take the bladder out of my...

Did a hike last fall into Fontana but from Franklin. It was awesome to end at the dam and the shower was very nice. I live within 20min of Erwin where I hope to finish. Davenport is the bailout spot...

Leaving on the 20th of this month. Less than 3 weeks, can't wait :D or knowing that I've got to get everything ready and the time's quickly approaching :eek:. This is the only time that I can go this...

I'm planning a section hike starting at Fontana and finishing at Davenport or maybe going to Erwin if things work out. Starting 8/20 around 11AM. Anyone willing to join me on all or part?

Ditto on what BobTheBuilder says about Roan. It's a beast but you do get to learn a bit of East TN history with a visit to the old hotel site on the top of Roan. Another option would be to start at...

I planning a section hike starting at Fontana and finishing at Davenport maybe to Erwin if things work out. Starting 8/20 around noon.

What's the distance along Tellico Rd from NC 28 to the trail crossing?

I carry a couple of epipens and benadryl when on the trail. Didn't have allergies to wasp/bee/yellow jacket stinks until about a year ago. Before then, I've been stung many times without any...
