  1. Ordered my tent

    I have a ZPacks Duplex on the way and that should help with some of the weight issues. I also just received a down quilt that is much lighter than my other bag. I have been breaking in my by mid boots and my trail runners and doing steps while the weather is bad. Organizing my mail drops too. I leave in early May so kind of a late start but must for work. Hope to see you all on the trail.

I know we're all obsessing over gear & weight & shakedowns & [insert your general anxiety] but this is not what i am asking!

    It could be anything out of the ordinary! Do you have a ritual? Are your developing a ritual? Do you have a lucky charm? Or something

  4. Blood Mountain

    Hiked from Vogel to summit of Blood Mtn yesterday. A lot of ice on top 1/3 of mountain, especially at peak. Have now gotten in LeConte (to Icewater Springs), the Unicoi trifecta (Rocky, Tray, and then Rocky again to get back to the car), Blood a number of times, Springer a couple of times. Heading off to Cohutta this Saturday AM for a weekend hike. Excited to start counting down.
