And detailed information on the update. I saw the generic information on my phone but looking for more specific information. Thanks,

These debates happens all the time with everyone giving their opinion. Just do either and don't sweat it.

I have the one person rainbow which can be set up free standing using trekking poles but I have never felt the need. Love the tent and will be bringing with me on the AT for at least a month. I...

So far I've decided to skip them. Might add cheap flip flops in hot weather and may add something more substantial up north with the large river crossings. Crocs seem to be the go to but are heavy....

I hate bag liners. They twist and make it difficult to reach/use your zipper. Sleep clothes will typically be lighter and more versatile.

Several bacteria cause diarrhea and I have had a severe case on the trail so I carry a few pills like Imodium. Two days from a trail head is too far when you have diarrhea and dehydrating fast. I...

Their site claims 1.4 oz. If it is really .85 oz I'll have to cut holes in my food bag. Sure is hell not carrying the .4 oz.

I think I've owned about 10 packs and 10 tents that I have used and progressed through over the years. I've owned several Dana Packs over the years including a Terraplane. The one I still have but...

I only use side entry shelters now. I often cook right outside the door in the morning so I can drink my coffee in bed. A lot more work with a front entry.

Something to think about is how accessible stuff is in your food bag. Tall and narrow bags may cause you to dump everything out to find what you are looking for. I have an old basic silnylon stuff...

Get the AT weather app, it seems quite good. Plan your overnight stops at lower elevations if the temps get too low.

You are going to need a office scale or kitchen scale that weighs to at least to 1/10 of an ounce. Many also weigh in grams which is ideal. I buy mine on Amazon for about $15 max. A luggage scale is...
