So Rain Man....Guess that wasn't a bear growling that everyone heard during the night?? ;)

It's great to seal things in quart and pint jars....both wide-mouth and regular. The adapter should come with the unit. This isn't hiking related but you wanted uses around the house.

That's great Moose....but 2 weeks after my surgery I was still in rehab! Must be the age difference. Getting old SUCKS! :confused:

This doesn't apply to gaiters but thought I'd share it. I have a pair of Wyoming Wear socks that the seam let go. Call them and they replaced them free..no questions asked..even changed the size....

I tried the Mexican (a free-bee in the store) and it was GREAT. Don't know the cost or how it compares to making your own. Anyone made a comparison?

Great posts everyone!

Just wondering. How is it hot and how does it mix with hot water? Never tried it. Actually....never heard of it! Where do you get it?

Come on guys......your overlooking one WEEEE fact! Yes..he did screw up a few things...........but could YOU ""BREAK"" your own arm then CUT THE DAMN THING OFF??????? I'm not sure I could....but then...

Simva....I think it's safe to say "I've been there..done that"! Although my experence didn't turn out as I wished it had..I feel it was God's wish that I continued on the path I was on. You can feel...

Coaster....my mom works at DollyWood so's can get you in anytime. I'm also a COSTER freak. If-n you get to TN or want to meet I SOOOOOOO want to do the coasters at Cedar Point....or Kings...

This has been a hectic spring for me. I've tried several times to get to Clingman's or Newfound to feed/meet some of the '03 GAME'rs. This sunday I have free....will there be any hikers at Newfound?...

I ALWAYS carry a paperback to read on the trail. 200 pages..hummm......that's just a book REVIEW!! :) About 2 inches worth of book is just right..weight is a little more than your "no skid".......and...

There is another Thread under this Forum (also called Stuff Sack")..check it out. I think you'll find it useful. :)

This question isn't about the approach trail but I think it might be relevant. Wabbit seems to be asking..to me..do you need to hike the approach trail to be considered a "thru-hiker".
My...

Sparky....when I make chili I use turkey and some times add chicken. I cook boneless breast and tear it into small pieces with my fingers while it's still warm. Chicken works like turkey..only...
