I think you'd be much better off with a pair of water proof treated leather or synthetic hiking boots.
Muck boots have their place, but they don't provide enough support to be comfortable for a...

Have you thought about a Garmin InReach device? Or something that would let you send an SOS if you got into trouble. I got one for the Sierra's on my PCT thru hike. It was nice having the peace of...
I backed into a cactus whilst lighting a stove. My lovely wife spent 30 minutes picking thorns out of my buttocks. And that's how I came to be called Prickles.
My wife and I are planning to NoBo thru the PCT. I'm certain our original start date of April 7th isn't going to happen, but start dates are lenient this year. If we can start before April 20th we'll...
Oh geez. The PCT Class of 2020 FB group is a dumpster fire and echo chamber rolled together.
Thanks! She really is great.
I've had an MSR Pocket Rocket 2 for a year now. It's average at best in almost every way, but it works and has a decent warranty.
We're through hiking the PCT in...
Ah! This couldn't have been more perfect. I live in the Austin area. Unfortunately, my wife heavily alluded to her already getting me a 1300ml pot for my upcoming birthday. I should have spoken to...
Title says it all. I'm looking for a 1300ml titanium cooking pot. Something like a Toaks or a Snow Peak.
The wife and I have permits for April 7th out of Campo. We just might see each other in town somewhere.
Best of luck finding some dehydrated meals.
You could try other companies like Heather's Choice or Backpacker's Pantry.
Another option would be to DIY some dehydrated meals. My wife and I bought a $50 Nesco dehydrator and started making...
I've hiked the Guadalupe "Mountains" a few years ago. I can't help you plan your route since I only did several day hikes.
A good rule of thumb is one liter of water for every five miles of...
A Trail Angel on the PCT had a garden sprayer filled with water and ice. He would spray hikers with ice water. It felt great.
Leukotape or other blister care is always appreciated.
Thank you for the explanation. I appreciate you clearing up your viewpoint. I understand discussing pros and cons. I misunderstood your earlier post or the delivery of the post. It seems you weren't...
Ha! I forgot about those posts.
Sorry if my previous post was unclear. I started the post and then lost connection and had to write the post again. I originally intended to quote T.S.Kobzol, but...
@T.S. Kobzol
I think you missed the point of that post. I am speaking for StephenD here, but as I understand his meaning, he is saying the videos and the channel are SecondChance's content to do...
Nope. OP is right. Your comment was useless and provided no benefit to the discussion. Unless of course providing an analogy of the dinner choices between two people, one being a five year old...
Why does my start date have to be in May? I'd love to meet this guy.
