I'm trying to give my friends a send off hike this year with my dear old mother. We want to leave the 5th and hike for about a week. I'm in worse shape than my 55 year old Mom, so it's going to be...
I see some people responded with the usual "yer young chap" and "katahdin doesn't allow ultralighters" and "no cussin' or I'm tellin ma". I guess what I'm trying to help with most of you, is test...
Hey man! I was just talking about you the other day. PM me sometime, tell me how life is going. Thanks for the photo, someone stole my memory card shortly after we met so I lost all mine.
BUY A FREAKING UNDERQUILT AND A REAL HAMMOCK before spending a whole LOAD of money on a sleeping bag that's too warm, but compresses under your body, and a tarp that's super-overkill.

There was one outfit near the end of the strip that was selling ramen for $1 each that they said they imported from Thailand. They came with a package with soy sauce and a packet of oil. They tasted...
I think it looks fine.

I just got off the trail and I had a great time. I'm hoping to work during the summer and go back out and catch hikers in the fall. On another note: I wanted to make sure everyone is aware that some...
One thing that finally got my pack weight down to about 12 pounds was looking at my gear and shaving pounds, not ounces. I went multipurpose with everything, and jesus willing I'm going to shaving...
