Had to go to the ground with my tarp set up as a tent. Had a bad storm the night I was there but kept dry

I am currently making the AT and wouldn't be able to do it if I did not get a oral device from my dentist who wasn't sure if it would even work because I had pretty severe sleep apnea. I have been on...

On the AT with my Tilley hat

If you find something let me know. I'm also a bigger guy hoping to lose more weight on this hike. I have a wind breaker by starter that I will probably take, it's 13 ounces but so far it's the...

I gave had sleep apena for many years and have been using a cpap for a long time. If I don't use it I really can feel the difference. I've been using the appliance for over a week and have felt very...

I believe it's a TAP. Its been wonderful, have been using it all week with no problems and have gotten a restful night sleep each night. It does get some getting used to it. It's also easily...

I just got my Arc Haul Zip and will be using a liner for extra protection when I know rain may be or is expected. It's nice to be able to grab something easily with out digging into the whole pack. ...

That was by original reason for moving to a hammock. After testing a Hammock out on a weekend overnight I was hooked. With my new dental mouthpiece and my Hammock I'm pretty confident I can leave...

I have the transcend, a little under a pound, and can get about 15-16 hours on a charge. I have a spare battery but that's an extra 1.5 lbs. (wasn't planning on taking) I wasn't as concerned with...

I start my flip-flop hike in 19 days and my biggest concern about this trip was my severe sleep apnea. I was, and still may take my portable CPAP machine which is good for about 2 1/2 to 3 nights but...

I joke with my friends that after I bought everything, got new gear, keep adding gear, changing gear, I could've gone on a six month cruise.

I had the same concerns, I know zpack has pretty good instructions on how to measure and will exchange it if you need to change sizes. I was on the border between a medium and large. Ended up...

Sounds good, I would only suggest doing the NoBo first so you don't run into time constraints getting to Maine. This way you can truly take your time

I was at the ATC last May 13th after finishing a few days going into HF. No pic [emoji4]

A friend wants to get me a Tilley hat for my hike but I'm not sure how practical they are four the AT. I usually wear a wicking baseball type of hat. Has anybody had any experience wearing one.

Got my WB guide yesterday. I most likely will be relying on AWOL and Guthooks guides but the WB does have a few tidbits that the others don't and I can use it as a reference also. Took it to work...

For me it's really not battery usage but more comfort of reading. My daughter gave me her Kindle to try at 7 ounces. It's a paperwhite. I'm going to play around with it for a few weeks and then...

I will have guthook and awol on the phone plus paper sections as I go. The kindle would most likely be strictly books and occasionally awol. I will be using the iPhone for photos videos and notes...

I'm toying with the idea of bringing a paperwhite Kindle with me. I was planning on using my iphone7 plus but I'm not crazy about reading on it. Also the Kindle battery will last a lot longer and...

Just got a pair of zeros and only have used them in the house but seems very comfortable. I do not like flip-flops or something with the toe separator. Have always used crocs before but was looking...

I have the zpack hip pouch and my iPhone 7plus fits in it with no problem no stress. My backpack came with one and I liked it so much I ordered another.

I usually always wear hiking briefs. The other day I decided to do a fairly easy 5 mile hike with pack, well forgot to change and I had bad chaffing. I'm heading out for a hike this morning and I...

I have the wookie underquilt coming soon, my question is packing it, I'm thinking of leaving it attached to the BB hammock and stuffing both in a dry sack. Or should I keep them separate? I'm...

Had it last summer with a heel spur, I stopped hiking for about 2 1/2 months. Have not had any problems since. I did take my time getting into regular hiking again.
