As I may be there. I start on the 10th and would be a good pace to put me there at that time.
jk though. Im sure there will be plenty of people.
Thanks in advance and...
Why not use your cooking pot??
It should rest flush with the bottom of the stream and not raise up like your nalgene.
Just an idea that wouldn't add any weight..

Only a camera for me.
Non of that other nonsense!

Ill chime in here since not mentioned..
Tuna fish and hot sauce if available. If not, tuna will do just fine.
Its amazing. And a personal fav!
Happy eats :)

I just got some five fingers as well. I love them so much too that I was considerin ditchin boots too.
I wont end up going this way of course, because it is just silly. So they will be my camp...

I was planning on bringing my nike livestrongs on my hike, but they are very heavy..
I almost gave into crocs, but I will go w vibrim five fingers as well. ...

Thanks for the quick responses guys!
Yes, Sorry, I didnt include my Misc. items, I figured I would post the essentials and leave out the little nick nacks.
But here they are:
Duct tape, small...
Gah!
So I thought I did everything that I could to reduce pack weight and get my pack under or right at 40lbs. But after packing, I am already over that weight.
Let me run you thru real quick...

I know im going to make it, and that just brightens up my day :)

Thanks for all the advice. I got this pack from santa and have already done some miles in it. Haven't leaded it up to capacity yet, only about half capacity. I will have more time to mess around w it...

Im trying to save gear weight but will also be conscious about the food and water that I carry as well.
5 liters max capacity. But will proly only hike w 3 or 4. Food weight is...
Bandanna wipe down is the best bet I think.
Good to rotate clothes too. Rinse socks and shirts, and simply hang them out, or on your pack as you hike.
No need to take drastic measures to "clean"...
Im excited as well!!
plan on being done w work on the 1st of March, and then flying down a week later or so.
And I second the cheap flights. $75 one way ticket. Nice. But those silly additional...

or if you simply cannot sleep..why not break camp, and get...

Thanks again!

What is the best way going about hanging up a bear bag on a thru hike??
Is it even necessary?
Will any old bag (compression bag or so) work? Or would a bear canister be advised??
I know bears...
