In WV we have Pepperoni Rolls. It's a bread roll stuffed with pepperoni and sometimes cheese. If you don't have them in your area google the recipe. You can use frozen bread dough, or frozen dinner...

Look at the network of trails in the Spruce Knob and Dolly Sods areas of West Virginia. You can put together some loops in those areas.

In the Spruce Knob area you can pick a trailhead along Gandy...

Reminds me of something that happened years ago. It was a goof-off weekend. We were camped on the back side of North Fork Mountain in WV. In the morning as we broke camp lots of traffic passed by. I...

Then convince them to donate money to fight it.

Peanut butter and tomato sandwiches for me.

Try it on for fit. When I bought my Osprey Atmos a few years ago I also tried a Gregory. Back then the fits were very different. The Osprey fit perfect and the Gregory did not fit at all.

Had a black bear bump into the side of the tent once.

When I want to write something inappropriate I simply post "[Censored]".

The overlook on top of Seneca Rock hangs over the cliff. You can watch the ravens fly nearby, but they are still over the valley. Also if you get on top the cliff on North Fork Mountain Trail you...

Read the OP again. He said he was paying for his own hike and not asking for help to do it. He was just asking for opinions on GFM's.

My opinion: It's your money. Do what you want with it. Just...

PA gun deer season usually starts the Monday after Thanksgiving.

Always figured if Sasquatch's were real someone has one in the freezer somewhere.

I went to a tarp and net tent setup a few years ago. The first night I spent in it I asked myself why I didn't do this years ago. YAMA Mountain Gear makes some nice gear, but if you shop around you...

Dark chocolate pairs well with scotch or bourbon. Give it a try.

Now you've piqued my interest and I have to try hiking with a poncho. It won't draw nearly the weird looks I get dayhiking with an umbrella.

I have a YMG shaped tarp and net tent. The ridgeline of the net tent attaches to D-rings on the inside of the tarp. Not sure if your tarp will have the D-rings for the ridgeline. Like Dogwood said,...

Thanks for sharing. I enjoy seeing gear people make themselves.

I last saw the processed beers bouncing off leaves in front of me.

Tie pieces of flagging tape to clothes pins. Keep them handy for when you leave the trail and head into the woods. Clip them to branches on your way in to flag the way back out. Pick them up on the...

Empty your bladder well before going to bed. Your body uses energy to keep the urine in your bladder warm, making you overall colder.

Around the house I use rubber snakes to keep away birds and critters away from the house. I haven't tried this when hiking, but putting one outside your tent, beside your pack, or in a shelter may...

Thanks for sharing.

Another issue I see with having a tarptent and a tarp is setup. Most tarptents require 2 hiking poles and the tarp requires 2 hiking poles, unless you purchase separate tentpoles for one.

This sounds too good to be true.

I'm in.

When the best shoes you own are hiking boots.
