My experience with European hostels is that they provided all the linens, but it would make sense to bring a bag just in case. All the hostels (in Germany/Austria/Netherlands/Belgium) I went to were...

When in the morning does the AT Lodge normally get people to KSC?

I'm in the same position bud. I have to catch a bus for a bachelor party/wedding by august. I'm starting my SOBO June 20th. I'll be catching a greyhound in Hanover, NH july 30-31. Don't know which...

Hopefully I'll be celebrating my birthday at a brewpup in caratunk :)

Using the AT guide I planned for 9 nights from Katahdin to Monson, so that's how much food I'm packing for, minus a lunch that I plan getting from White House landing. The longest day I have planned...

Don't give up Tree Nerd! I know the feeling. This past year for me hasn't been the happiest. I've been stuck in a university and town that I hate for the better part of a decade, though this past...

I went to Philmont twice as a scout in 2002 and 2004. The memories I have from those treks are some of the best I have from my scouting experience. I remember both times my crews did 100+ mile hikes....

I got a 9-tray Excalibur brand dehydrator a couple years ago and it's the bee's knee's. I think most people on this forum would swear by it also. It's a little pricey though (I got mine as a gift). ...

I've been checking their site on occasion for the past 6 months just to see what the progress was on when they were coming out with the beer. As a home-brewer myself, this is pretty exciting. It's...

What that guy said. For me, prevention/cleanliness is key. People have mentioned baby wipes for thighs but I think they're more useful for after a #2. After using some TP, do a once over with a baby...

SOBO
June, 20th

Been planning this for a few years now and I'm excited to walk home into autumn!

I'm pretty nervous too. I have plenty of hiking experience and I'm well practiced in "leave no trace" and ultralight methods (all learned in scouts). I've been planning this SOBO thru for the past 3...

Would it be reasonable to say that 3000 dollars would be enough to do a SOBO hike? Considering that SOBO is seen as a less social more back country experience it would be cheaper?

give more than you take.

just bumpin

Hey! I'm looking to purchase a ULA Camino for my upcoming SOBO thru. I've heard plenty of great thing about ULA, particularly about the Circuit and the Catalyst. I've heard next to nothing about the...

Hi,
