Which do you prefer to do in the field repairs with Duck (duct) or Gorilla Tape?

Doesn't dark chocolate have a high melting point? And you could pretend that you are eating healthy.

Marty1983's suggestion of the Neoair is a good one. I have slept on a shelter floor at -10°F and was just fine. I understand they also have a winter one, better R rating abut also heavier.

Just thought it was a funny sight, nothing more.

I'm still in the dreaming phase for a possible 2014 Thru and I was just wondering how folks resupply their cash while on trail?
Thanks

The 2010 Thru-Hikers Handbook indicates that there is the possibility of camping at a lean-to on NPS land off the Blue Mtn Lakes Rd in PA. They say that it is no longer maintained. Does anyone know...

Thanks to all. This is reall going to make the going much easier.

Thanks Emerald but I have been to all the conventional places. I'm looking for first hand information. Kind of out of the box thinking.
Thanks Again

I friend and I are going to section between Duncannon PA and Wind Gap PA this May. We have 10 days for the trip. The shelters look to be oddly spaced, some being about 19 miles appart. Does anyone...

I am planning well in advance for a section hike I hope to do this coming May. I am hoping to hike between Front Royal, VA and Duncannon, PA or Duncannon, PA and High Point, NJ. I have about 11 days...

Don't under estimate the Moose Mountain area. It is beautiful. The trails are well used and therefore packed out very well. I packed Smarts mountain last weekend and have a 10 mile loop from my house...

I'm usually up fairly early and on trail as soon as it is light enough to see. I don't spend much time with a cooked breakfast but just a bar and maybe peanut butter. In about 5 hours I will stop at...

I am looking for a place to leave my car near the Bear Mountain Bridge for about a week. Does anyone know what the parking is like in this area?
Thanks

Thanks Sasquatch, Tin Man for the advice/offers. I think I'm going to go with a third option.

Wystiria, sounds like a good paln if you can count on doing a given number of miles per day. I guess planning less in this case would be better.

So you are saying that if I get a shuttle on Sunday the 10th of May to a point about 75 miles south and walk back it would be a better choice. I am fairly flexable.

Tin Man, Sunday 17th would also work.
Thanks

Thanks Tin Man for your reply. I plan on leaving my car on CT 55 in Gaylordsville CT and walking south for about 6 days, that would be Shuttle back to my car on Saturday 16 May. I figure about 75...
