    Default What did you get for Christmas.

    Anyone get any interesting hiking/trail related presents for the holidays? I got a Garmin eTrex without even asking for one. While its not super necessary for the AT, its seems like a fun little thing to keep track of where I am and where I have been. I might also try my hand at geocaching.

    I got a new camera from my girlfriend. A Fuji fine pix xp 50. Weather proof and a great point and shoot for hiking.

    A day of hiking without rain, and without (too much) pain. My wife shuttled me to 19E-Bear Branch Christmas morning, and picked me up at Carvers Gap (near Roan Mtn). Good views off of Hump Mountain, but then the clouds rolled in.
