Hi Everyone,
I will be getting on a plane to Georgia from my home state of Maine to attempt a late start thru-hike in a few weeks. While going over the last of my gear I started to get worried about my pack on a flight to Georgia. I realize that my backpack will be packed too tight to be searched and repacked by airline workers, and I also know that due to the amount of bottles and metal in it, it will get searched for sure.
I am wondering if anyone has a solution to this problem. I had thought that packing my bag loosely inside a large box might be a good idea.
Thanks for your help,
