This is my first post on this website. I used to post all the time at BPer, but forgot my password and now can't seem to get back on.
Just so you all take me seriously, here is a partial list of what I have done over the years: AT(twice)-1992/2001, PCT(CA)-1996, CDT(NM, southern CO-1997), 600 miles of Ice Age Trail, Long Trail-1991/2005, 88 of NE 100 highest, 13 of ADK 46ers, 39 of CO 14ers, 121 of CO 13ers, Ozark Highlands Trail-2004, 36 of AZ 66 highest peaks, 20 state highpoints and much more.
Anyways, this is my question: Assuming you have $30,000 saved up(possible a whole lot more) and all you wanted to do was backpacking/hiking as much as possible for as long a time as possible, and assuming you have all the necessary gear(and enough knowledge), allowing yourself to do trails here in the US as well as Europe, Canada and Australia..............
How long could you make the above amount last?
What do you think would be a average spent per month?
