As a wannabe thru hiker in 2014 after I finish college I want to start putting gear together. So I don't have to buy it all at once(college kid budget!!) and was looking for ideas of stuff to bring! Other than the basics. I've been on a few overnight trips but nothing longer than a weekend(. 3 day big creek loop in the smokies the day after Christmas. Can you say cold!!!). But anyways. Any help would be much thanks!
