I looked around the forums, and couldn't find anything on this subject directly. Is everyone ok?

I realize in today's world, the storm system probably didn't catch anyone unawares, but you...

Don't even joke about something like that.

I disagree. He may have been ill prepared, but he's getting gear sent from home. It's probably cold weather sleeping gear.

If his biography is to be believed, he spent a considerable bit of time...

I tend to agree. On such a time sensitive goal, early low miles make it impossible from the get go. His first miles are road miles, and if he's not making 30+ per day, he's sunk.

My guess is he...

Thank you. Sincerely. Thank you.

For the record. I was completely serious and not joking in any way.

Bring it Jester. RIFF RAFF!!

See what I did there, I've been a double agent this entire time.

Well if no one else is going to say it: Ahem:

"The female of the species is more deadly than the male."

I don't know what sick, twisted, jovial, evil mind created this, but they insulted us when they did.

I'm going to drive to the Erwin/Damascus area from Texas for my annual section hike/trail days hypervacationextravaganzahullaballoo.

I was going to take I-40 this weekend, but I'm concerned with...

I met a man in Kent, CT who had hiked there from Springer, hooked up with a waitress and never left. He had been there for several years. I didn't believe him at first (yeah sure you were a thru...

I'd like to know if you ever got the Texas Best reboot. Did they really go back to the original recipe? Is it as good as...

There's a fun game called "Scare the Weekender." which usually involves fake stories about bears, or real stories about hiker trash.

Cribbage seems to be extremely popular.

I think the hike North out of Damascus is better, but in the interests of convenience, you could hike South to 19E. It would take several days. There's a hostel at 19E near the trail where you...

I guess you could start out with two large freezer bags and go from there. The real problem with protection is the general moisture and the impacts. Something as large as a Kindle has a huge screen...

That's what I was looking to hear. Oiled ones, transferred to an airtight container. For me, an airtight container means I use my mouth to suck the air out of the bag right before it's sealed...

I don't hate the earbuds. I use them. I think that is actually the more polite option. I was referring to the speakers. Ipods now comes with speakers that can be hung around the neck and blast...

Observation:
I notice a very specific word missing from the title.

Question:
Does the Bad Wizard himself make an appearance?

I love artichoke hearts in my Lipton Sides, and my Mac n Cheese. If I pull them out of the glass container in the refrigerator, and put them in a ziplock bag, (and then that bag in another, and that...

I met a guy last year at trail days who had bought it to hike with and broke it after two weeks.

I think the Kindle really supplies you with a variety, and lets you pick and choose depending on...

I hate them, with a deep and abiding passion. Last year I wanted to attack and kill the idiot who would keep them on all the time. I worry that this kind of thing is becoming more common. 5 years...

HAHAHA

Your kids are right.

My mom always put a little butter in the cream of wheat, and Brown Sugar or Honey.

I'm just hoping they put artichoke hearts in pouches. I love them in my Lipton sides.

If you DO choose to bring cans and drain the water yourself, don't do it right next to the shelters. That kind of pungent odor will almost certainly draw animals.

It's worth the money for the pouches. They're lighter, they're much easier to pack out once you're done, and they come in different flavors.

Ditto on the packet of mayonnaise tip. That and the...

One or two of those things can make a HUGE noise. If they start grunting and tearing up the vegetation, it would be extremely easy to mistake the sounds for bear activity. Not just for the...
