Awesome pics! My back aches just looking at all of those heavy packs!

Is there still good camping spots at Spanish Oak Gap?

Worst case there is always Fart Baseball to keep one entertained.

I had a dog take a bite out of my shorts while trail running one day. Let's just say I'm glad I wasn't going commando that day...or maybe other park users were glad!

Welp, decided to go to Florida with the family instead! Not sure how that happened.

I'm planning a 2.5 day section from Unicoi Gap to Deep Gap (32 miles) this weekend (2/12-2/14). I know the weather has been cold and wet down in the mountains, so trying to get some local intel on...

I decided to amputate my hands. Problem solved.

Why do you need to bury cats? You like killing pets?

I will go on a limb and say that no one else has my trail name. Alien Snorer.

We are off to Red River Gorge in KY instead. Thanks for the feedback and intel!

Winter boots + microspikes...do you think that will be enough, or should we be thinking snowshoes?

My hiking buddy and I are planning a Friday to Sunday from Harpers Ferry to Pen Mar. Sounds like a nice snow storm is coming through tonight into tomorrow. We are planning to drive down tomorrow,...

I prefer bourbon.

And then Naproxen or Vitamin I the next morning.

Yeah, that's a lot of rocks.

I want my flying car first. Then, we can tackle drinkable hiking beer.

Sorry, I meant head north from Brown Gap! max patch may be onto something...

We are also considering starting at Brown Gap and heading south. More reasonable mileage and elevation gain/loss.

I enjoy this kind of hike. May sound silly, but to each their own.

I've section hiked on the AT 8-10 times in the past, including 25-mile days. I run trails 20-25 miles per week and participate in trail racing, orienteering and adventure racing.

I'm not saying...
