Depends on the size of the dog. My 20# one does well sleeping in the hammock with me. I suggest you try it in the backyard first.

If you want to visit Springer I would suggest maybe Springer to Woody Gap. Its about 20 miles, besides Springer the first 4 miles to Three Forks will fly by since its very easy hiking, and you could...

And thats why bears get a bad reputation.

I'm really not sure why they gated it on the East side the ranger did say they closed some due to storm damage over the last few years. We tried every single gravel road/path anything we could find...

The Road to Addis Gap is basicly non-existant. I went looking for it in May this year and on the East side I am assuming it was one of the gated roads, even the Forest Ranger we asked didnt know...

Another option that I took was just go out an buy a cheap nylon hammock (byer traveler works well, $20 and only weighs 8-10 oz) if your a weekender and know when you won't want/need the bug netting....

Rouen, I have never noticed it sliding forward on my dog. She has never had sores from it either so I'm going to say that in the chance it does it is minimal. Might just be the difference in the...

I use a Kelty chuckwagon for mine, but she is a small dog (20#) and it was by far the best fit on her. Not that there are many options in that size anyway.

Best advice I can give you is take your dog out for a couple of test runs. Start out with a night trip and build up to about a week, Just watch for signs of fatigue. Every dog is different, I have...

One more thing you need to consider when hiking with your period, carry a seperate bag you can hang your used items in since you'll be packing them out. As gross as it seems the smell can attract...

You are correct on that, however you picked a topic that nobody can resist.(Me being one of them)

I hope it doesn't come down to no dogs allowed on the AT. I think its about time they start enforcing leash laws...

Dirtnap, I can see you did some things right, some wrong. 1) you should always have your ID on you 2) every adult knows their social security # you should have instead told them you werent...
