Anyone use Potable Aqua? I just bought some from Walmart for $6.

You beat me to it. Just read it myself. At least her family can now find some peace.

My feeling exactly. She had apperantly been talking to him for some time up and down the trail, according to reports. He waited until they got back to the parking area and in the moment that she had...

I use their forum but do not subscribe. For gear reviews I go to thebackpacker.com or trailspace.com. And I contribute to the forums that are the friendliest and most helpful.

Thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends in this very difficult time.

The authorities are looking into it from what I have read.

What a drunk idiot.

REI has some that are wider in the shoulder area than most mummies.

I have the same problem in NC. The closest one is in Raleigh, 2 1/2 hours away. Too far for pickup. I wish they would put one in Greenville, big college town and only 1 hour away.

I would guess that she either has extreme seperation anxiety, which my wife had because her first husband left her for another woman, or she is very controlling.
With seperation anxiety, it has...

Wow, how many are you carrying for?

Thanks, that was the first glacier that my wife ever saw and touched. Hope to go back up there on our 10th anniversary (in 2 years).

29 lbs is heavy. I wonder if the girl comes with it. Maybe that's why it's $3800.

Thats a stupid statement. Who wears earplugs when they are hiking. When sleeping, thats different. I also wear ear plugs at night. I need complete silence when i sleep whether at home or on the trail...

Since it has been 11 years since anyone has been murdered on th AT then reasoning would say it has been a steep downward trend.

I will normally carry about 25lbs but when my wife goes then I have to carry a heavier tent, more food, and some extras that I promised her I would carry when she is able to hike again. Weight will...

I've noticed in that Virginia Pilot report that no one has been killed on the AT since 1996. Is that correct?

I hear they are now offering 20% off if you pay up front and can wait until June 08 for delivery. Not a joke. Saw this on BPL.

The problem I have found with longer bags are that there is more space to heat up on cold night especially by your feet which don't produce much heat anyway, plus you are carrying unnecessary weight.

Check out REI, they have the SD Chrysalis UL, a 1 person tent at just 3lbs, on sale for $114 and you get a 20% discount off of that if you are a member.

I should have said on the inside of the belt against your hips although not internal if that makes sense.

I just got a Nimbus Ozone for a steal on Ebay and had planned to exchange the ultralight belt for the light belt for when my wife goes with me, have to carry more weight then. My understanding of the...

Just bought a 3 lb REI tent today.

Anyone have any experience with the New Balance jacket or know what it's weight is?
