Pretty sure they swept folks out in 2103. Easy to do. (I arrived immediately following the shutdown, and was present at GSMNP when it opened.) I'd like to know what you are basing this info on...
Who is Governor Mark Sanford?
I left Maine in 2013 (after doing sections missed in 12) and hitched to Front Royal with every intention of Hiking SOBO through Shenandoah. (I aquablazed NOBO that spring) I just happened to hit the...
Okay, wow. Thanks for this very timely and apropos information. It is indeed an interesting fact that a hiker can in fact be held RESPONSIBLE for ignoring INFORMATION and be billed. I'm not...
While these would make nice GIFTS for youngsters going on day hikes or maybe weekend trips, they are not worth money because they are not worth carrying. IMHO - not interested in a debate, thank you....
FINALLY! A film for the aversive conditioning of would-be-hikers! A film which does not depict the trail as paved with Snicker Bars under an archway of rainbows, where hugs, hookups, and hiker-feeds...
Yeah, I'm going out to fly a kite in a thunder storm to rediscover electricity. If it's good enough for Ben Franklin it's good enough for...
Well, at least it's related to hiking.
Even funnier story! Four Pines Hostel - Joe Mitchell's place in the fall of 2014. (Seriously, one of if not the best hostels out there - Standing Bear, Uncle Johnnie's, 4 Pines) Joe is good enough to...
Asked and answered like 48 hrs. ago.37777 No you don't.
I think you missed the connection. There's a lot of material to cover - the quiz is after lunch. Thanks for the tip. I get you don't get it. Study hard and stay in school.
1. True, however - we're having a dialogue about it now aren't we?
2. True, and that's my point. I don't like to policed at all as I am an at times onerous libertine hiking hippie. (1973) Look at...
I'm surprised liquid long johns didn't make the cut!
Yes. Thank you. Agreed.
I think that the next five years, like the last five, will be a defining and pivotal time for the big three trails. Especially the AT, but the PCT, and then the CDT in that...
Uh, oh sorry - was I sleeping? I generally don't. Um, yes. I don't rehearse though - I find it takes away from the spontaneous authenticity of my pithy repartee.
I'm on a five year mission to uh,...
Yup. There was a little more to it. Like a Cape Cod Yankee with a Boston brogue trying to charm a southern belle in a trailer park bar room in Cocke Co. TN - the "moonshine capitol of the universe"...
Well, if you knew anything about a fight sonny you'd know that sooner or later there's always someone tougher, or at least more sober than you. If you can't take a beating now and then, then you...
Sir, yes sir.
Correct. It is unfair to assume he was the only hiker hiking in the Whites that day. He is, as a point of fact, the only one who died of exposure there however. And, while not the...
Yup. Me and your old pal Curtis Owen got roaring drunk at Buddies Bar Room, which is in the back end of a trailer park, doing shots of Jameson and I stayed behind. He'd agreed to take me against...
Well, I'm kinda baffled here so somebody help this big dummy out. Please.
This is a list of 10 hiking essentials for a winter day hike only? I've got a sexy light little set up now and at around...
You know I'd have to say I'd put the emphasis on sleeping bag here. (Is that #10?) Maybe I'm missing it, on what is otherwise a really good list. Weighed against a FAK the bag is I think way more...
+1 Agree one hundred percent.

I missed where the folks on this and other threads went out hiking unprepared in the face of common sense, the most basic hiking...
