Woohoo go Lonewolf! I hate when people just blatently abuse hostels like that!

I cant believe anyone thinks his resupply is expensive.... its not a dollar general sure, but its cheaper than most places down this area!

The small canister with my pocket rocket last me about 2 weeks of boiling water 2x daily. Just sayin

A lot of prescription benefits providers have whats called a "vacation supply override" that will let you get your refills early. Usually this means that you should obtain a 90 DS and ask for the...

If u need to filter, i'd go with the platypus gravity works. Filters faster than a pump, and waaaayyyy less likely to break. (No moving parts)

Hey if anyone wants to donate yo my hike, let me know! Free money is the best money. Oh and im not hiking for any charity, but i'll still gladly take yr money. $10 per mile anyone?

Heck yea! I have the super spiral down hugger #1 and the U.L down jacket. Best purchases ive made!

Noooooooooooo!

I had one last year. It crapped out in the smokies. Everyone else I know had theirs break by franklin. Go with a gravity filter. Steri pens suck

I leave it right side up and roll myself around. I also use a silk liner, makes it easier

Wore my mountain hardwear kilt last year. Will be wearing it this year. My gf even made me a rain kilt. Can't beat the freedom of the kilt!

Don't worry about it. You're not going to die from starvation on the trail. Or go hyponatremic. (Too little salt) if you eat normal hiker fare you will be fine. Worrying will make you come up with...

Maps? Why do you need maps? Don't be silly, maps aren't worth the weight. Go with either Awol's AT guide (I find this one amazing) OR with the Thruhiker companion. You don't need anything else. Save...

I'm gonna have to go ahead and say it is DOABLE... but u won't want to do it. Those are big miles for a section hike in that area. You're gonna wanna keep yr mileage below 20. I would say, just try...

Flat rate boxes. I do agree that freeze dried stuff may get boring, that's why we spaced our freeze dried meals out in our mailings. We also included our other hiker favs such as lipton noodles,...

I dont suggest either. I carried the an Aether last year, and though my pack was from 2006, it was closer to 7 lbs pack only. Why carry such a heavy pack if your only planning on carrying 35 lbs? go...

*Montbell not marmot! Whoops. Lol

Marmot UL Super spiral down hunger #0 (0 degree) or #1 (15 degree) the regular size is super roomy but still packs down to about the size of a football. My gf has the #0 and a golite Quest and it...

Should clear this up- GF is carrying a small first aid kit for herself. I haven't run into a single problem that a liberal rinsing with water and some duct tape won't fix. Gravity filter works...

Ah poop, I knew I spelled duct tape wrong, the library computer logged me out when I tried to make a comment to fix that! Speaking of poop, I fogot to list my TP and personal care items. They include...

Well, I kinda wanna know what ya'll think of my 2012 Thruhike gearlist. So feel free to strip it down or build it up!

Backpack: Osprey Exos 58
Inside/ on the pack:
Sea to Summit UL pack...

Depends on how you do it. Me and my GF are doing mail drops this time and thats running about $1400. Plus we're budgeting about $1600 for what we spend along the way (food, lodging, campsite/ shelter...

Are you using this for a thru-hike? Or just on the AT in general? I used to have an external, however I made the switch to internal frames because they are lighter and store your gear better....

I have an osprey exos 58. Its around 2 pounds (might be lighter) ran me $200 but it is wonderfully comfortable and super dooper spacious.

I have a Montbell U.L super spiral down hugger 15 degree. Its a bit pricey, but its usable year round and weighs around 2 pounds and is SUPER roomy. My advice, splurge on your sleeping bag, it can...
