Is this a regular event? Does anyone attend that can talk about it?
I set a goal years ago to section hike the AT to completion... Just carrying through with my plan

Dehydration .... Perhaps he had intestinal issues, leaving him weak and dehydrated .... Like he was drinking bad water.
Lighter the pack the less irritation to the back ..... I try to keep mine under 25 lbs
Depends on your goals for the day .... If you want to log miles, then get up, pee, dress and pack, get bear bag, eat and have a cup of joe, hit the privy, hit the trail ..... If I'm only going to the...
