Hope you enjoyed your visit! I don’t live there anymore (badly need to update my profile) but I had a great 10 years there!

So quick update, I spoke with the local Nantahala Ranger District, and it sounds like they will be issuing fines and citations to the organization. Obviously, they were in violation of the group size...

Weather was great Friday..... lots of rain Saturday though. I managed to finish up Saturday evening, as the rain was not showing any signs of stopping. The first guys who arrived did tell me they...

They weren’t secret at all, were very open about who they were and what they were doing.

I do have the groups information.... it was call 4musa. Apparently they take folks out for wilderness spiritual experiences or something. I did express my displeasure to who I think was the leader...

Hi Friends,

This is my first post in years, but I am a long time reader of the site. I wanted to share an experience I had this weekend while doing a three day hike and hear fellow hikers take on...

I am terribly near sighted, and have always struggled with contacts and glasses while backpacking. I used to take my contacts out 2-3 times a day to clean them. I am having LASIK surgery done next...

One of the great quotes I have heard ( not sure who said it): "you can have anything you want in life, but you can't have everything." It's all about what is most important to you!

Yeah that was pretty ridiculous. How could you not be smart enough to leave some of that junk behind? :-?

yep its a great book.

It will feel better when the toenail falls off.

There is no chin under Lone Wolf's beard. Only a third fist.

Eagle Rock loop trail in Albert Pike State Park. 27 mile loop hike, great 3 day trip.

Heart attacks suck. Get better Lone Wolf, WB wouldn't be the same without you.

I would recommend having a backup plan in place in case you don't stay on the trail as long as you anticipate you will.

Nothing better than the sound of loons in the north woods. Would have given anything to have experienced that.

Thanks for the input guys. Hurricane damage is pretty bad, especially from gustav. Hopefully all the trails will be cleared soon.

Hey Everybody,
I live in Baton Rouge, LA and as you can imagine, good hiking is somewhat hard to find around here. Don't get me wrong, there are places to go for some good dayhikes, but as far as...

Ouch, talk about an expensive hike. I bet she was smiling.

Just curious-about how many spare rounds would you take along? The times I have carried, I just have a full magazine, maybe one extra. I'm not an ultralighter, but the ammo weight does add up.

My worst experience with horses was on the Eagle Rock Loop Trail in Arkansas a couple years ago. Our second day out we got to a designated campsite (beautiful spot on the Little Missouri River), and...

You might want to try the Northface Hedgehog, comfortable, stable, and durable as hell.

Speaking as someone who was a young'n not too long ago, i'll throw my .02 in, even though I don't have kids and don't plan on it for a while. Schools fill their purpose (sometimes), but the majority...

These sound like fortune cookies.

Let it heal. If you push it, you may injure if far worse.
