I also read that the hiker should move off trail on the downhill side; because a spooked horse is easier to control uphill than down.

Oh, and Nick Nolte could have played the backpack.

I like it. Nice lightweight idea for those who want the extra information.

Based on what I read regarding Geraldine Laragy, may have been helpful.

Why was this closed? All the moderator had to do was call us down here in Georgia and say "All I need is 16 votes? Can't you find 16 votes somewhere?"

I think Robert Redford should have been cast as Cheryl

Is the outfitter on the other end of town near Dot's (or where Dot's was) still open too?

I remember long ago Jack Nicklaus said that golfers wore them all the time on cold windy days during the early part of the season.

But this was before silk base layers were available

One of my all time favorites. And author is a great guy, as others have said

I like the salt and soda idea and will give that a try next time out

Then I owe you the apology - my error.

On a couple of trips that involved flight, I have gone to REI and they will give you a box from a backpack. I put the pack, poles, and canisters in the box and UPS it to the location.

Uh, I didn't say I spit in on the ground.

I have nasty morning taste, so I do use a small amount of paste. I go off trail in the morning, dig a small cathole, and rinse and spit in the hole. I spit the rinse on the brush and that cleans it...

I'd like to take a kid on a good out-and-back overnight hike --- just one night shakedown/starter with a cool place to camp. Would prefer GA, and was looking for recommendations. My thoughts so...

They are a 4 star on Charity Navigator - highest possible rating.

77 cents of every dollar goes to program (the stuff they should be doing).

I'd also shoot your brother if he tries to bite my leg

Yep, and that's why the pepper spray is always on my waist belt. Sucks because the owner, not the dog, is at fault.

Go for it! As a very wise man has said "It's only walking"

Well, the early tone has sure changed over the past few days. I tried to read the good Dr.s comment but it didn't come up. Maybe he deleted it.
