Aaah, very clever of you!

Maybe we'll pack a picnic on our next visit and offer him a sandwich. :D

Gee, those guys have been in the woods so long they're evolving into plants!!

Pretty sure there's lots of competition for that distinction! Haha!

Triffid
The triffid is a fictional tall, mobile, carnivorous plant species, created by John Wyndham in his 1951 novel The Day of the Triffids, which has since been adapted for film and television....

On the other hand, the rear view of the hiker shows muscular boney legs, and a narrow waistline, typical of a male.

True, the hair is a bit longer than the average male's. But of course, the AT attracts a wide range of people.
And these days, it could be offensive to assign a gender to someone. Everyone who...

Yep, it's me. And the Facebook post has over 300 responses! WB has a piddly few. I guess everybody wanted to be outdoors on a beautiful Sunday, not hanging out here. :rolleyes:

that was supposed to be a big grin!
what happened to the emojis??

:d ........

In some respects, I would agree. But pack size seems a little too ... normal.

A quick google image search suggests you're right. So not a holly, I guess.




What? No comment on the emaciated hiker????

Found this guy on a hike yesterday afternoon.
Wondered if anybody knows him.


We judged him to be an AT hiker by his apparel and general appearance,
although he was off-trail at the time....

My husband is somewhat duck-footed. We successfully completed the trail over a ten year period. This is not a topic he and I have ever discussed, and I don't know if any of his aches and pains are...

A factor not mentioned much so far (except by TNhiker) is that some riders are mere tourists, not experienced equestrians. They may have zero idea of how to control a horse and zero idea of how a...

About 15 years ago we left East Tennessee headed to Arkansas. It was evening, my husband was driving as I napped. I opened my eyes and saw a double-digit mile marker. Interstate 40 goes east-west...

Andre the Giant??? LOL

If I'm walking off-trail to use the bathroom, I guess I'd better be paying attention!

And that's kinda what my question is about. When I intentionally leave the...

Not so poetic as the leaves and breeze themselves!

I wonder how animals navigate in the woods without getting lost. Many have pretty small territories. For example, I read that chipmunks rarely venture more than 1/3 of a mile from their homes. I...

The pepper spray worked really well! Too bad the dogs were aggressive. :(

It always fascinates me that people can be WB members for years, 9+ years in this case, and only have 2 posts. Amazing!

I'm glad Daisy was forewarned and had means to protect herself. I've been...

Not every hiker is as ambitious as Gambit! Yes, sometimes we've had to cut a hike short, but it's been rare. I remember once being out in a January all-day rain, and it was kinda miserable, so we...

I haven't thru-hiked, but my husband and I have completed the trails in sections over 10 years. Strongly agree that transportation budget is too low. Suggest that you spend a little time on various...

I'll have to look that up. I read Call of the Wild and White Fang at least twice as a youth. Never ran across A Piece of Steak.

I will keep that in mind. Maybe I'll share it with a few family members, then send it on.
Thanks for the suggestion.
