  3. CDT Thru in Boots like Danner Mtn Lights or Salomons

    What you mean is, Trail Runner are not made for you.
    My conclusion is that runners are a God-send for me. My Altras are the best fitting shoe to fit my wide feet.

    As lazylightning said, I too like to start at dawn, but I put up with the webs until I meet a hiker going the opposite direction. We congratulate each other for both of us clearing the trail.

    This is true. The stretch in North Carolina north of the Smokys is such a place. I swear, the lowest branches are a hundred feet up.

    Odd that you’re starting on July 8th. That’s the day in 2017 I encountered a sleet storm on top of Mount Success.

    Yes, in Maine you want an insulated jacket.

    When I passed through in 2015 the garage was nearly full. I could have stayed but it’s a very large garage with a lot of cots and old sofas jammed close together. It looked to be somewhat chaotic. ...

    Ive had a couple of Packas over the years and can tell you nothing ventilates as well as a Packa, even a poncho because the Packa unzips from the front. If you lower the zipper half way or so the air...
  13. Is the AT "the longest hiking-only footpath in the world" as ATC claims?

    Personally, I think a little road walking is a welcome break from the constant woods. The North Road walk isn’t all that far.

    Well I think we should discuss whether or not to keep the loose shoelace ends in the shoe or let them hang out.

    That’s sad to hear. What a great and friendly place to stop on the trail.

    I loved their outdoor shower with a bucket of river water, then propane heated to scalding hot if you chose.

  17. Whats the oldest piece of gear/clothes you still use?

    Well, like OwenM above, I just remembered that I still have my official Cub Scout pocket knife. It’s been in my top chest drawer all these years.

    Assuming the old sign hasn’t been moved, the long axis of the old sign is parallel with the trail, and located on the left side of the trail heading south.

    Best Place to Stay in Fort Montgomery?

    The cabins run by the Bear Mountain Lodge are much more reasonable, though I can’t remember what I paid. They are a short walk from the main inn.

    If you stay here, you’ll still have access to...

    What’s going on with HMG?

    When making a serious derogatory charge such as this, I think it wise to specify exactly who HMG is, and not leave it just as initials.

    We are speaking of HyperlightMountainGear?
