Good idea Sly, when the people were talking about the resupply problems, thats when I thought of the Hike INN.

Get Jeff and Nancy at the Hike INN to shuttle you to the Road to Nowhere and hike the Lakeshore Trail along the lake. I believe its about 45 miles long and a great hike. It ends up at the Dam.

I has come to my attention of another side of this story. It appears that you got the OLD Model ( As a Closeout BTW ) of the HH Hammock with the OLD version of velcro that wasnt full length. And that...

Actually thats what I told TD to do, not that is what Tom has done. It was she that proposed that idea not me. Go read Tom's Feedback page and I think he explains it well enough on his own. Go see...

I agree these ideas have been around for years, however the question at hand is who has a PATENT on these ideas. If TH does have a Patent on these ideas, then they are his and his alone. Im sure that...

Jeff, SGT Rock uses a Gearskin and I have seen how he packs his up close and its a nice outfit. One good feature for thruhikers is the fact that as your load is reduced in size and weight, the...
