I’m sticking with my “needs attention” rational. Between Vegans, The Stop Oil crowd and the let an illegal sleep on your couch advocates, I’m convinced of a juge mental health crisis in America!
Hence you don’t use the word “vegan” in your pseudonym. Eating close to dirt is a good idea. Having your food preferences define a political agenda and using it to “convert” others by being in their...
I can hear carrots screaming.
Something has to die for something to live, whether it’s composed plants for fertilizer or whacking an elk in the shoulder with a bullet.
Veganism is basically salad...
Ditch the bird and use some petroleum derived products.
often, blizzards result in snow deeper than boot welts. Thankfully the winds blew all the snow away overnight. It’s odd that it didn’t create snow drifts though?
If you’re willing to sleep in a wet sleeping bag, wear wet clothes, forgo the oven bag or compactor bag. Water finds a way regardless of marketing hype.
If they’re not working, I’m wondering how they can enforce the closure.
I wonder what the Border Patrol is planning to do.
Looks like you survive a Blizzard, that pack big enough for 10 jars of peanut butter?
EPIC, EPIC, EPIC…..got her over 100#s, Sweet
More pack pictures…..more pack pictures….more pack pictures
Since your mother asked about your ideas, I’ll assume she has no experience. Hence the suggestions for wood, alcohol, kerosene or white gas is very, very, very, very bad advice. Keep it low...
Well, if you still want a Colorado Plateau experience, Golden bear is on mark with Canyonlands NP. The Needles area is wonderful, Salt Creek, hundreds of ancient Indian relics, reliable water source....
Cottonwood CG is difficult to get reservations, not many sites. South Kaibab trail has much better vistas and less traffic, except for mules. Bright Angel trail is littered with tourist in penny...
EPIC, EPIC, EPIC…another trip to the Citico & Slickrock Wilderness. My goodness it must feel like your own backyard by now. You finally found a way to get your pack weight over 100#’s. Who would have...
You boys should get a room, lol!
Whelp, I’m totally onboard with HYOH. I merely responded to the taunt of ULers not being able to carry heavy loads. Honestly if you want to make your pack as heavy as possible, go for it. I just...
Never tried to distinguish myself as a real hiker, merely commented on the UL eat your heart out post. Trail maintenance is great and fully supported, good use of time.
To each his own, I responded to the “eat your hearts out UL’ers” comment. From my view point, there’s 40-45#’s of extra stuff.
Lots of pack pictures, LNT issues, and hyperbole, but if it’s ...
[QUOTE=Tipi Walter;2291775]Most UL hikers carry minimal weight because they resupply often and don't want to carry 20+ days of food at one time. Your quote "It's really more like homeless squatting...
Nope, it’s must be complicated for you
Most UL hikers carry minimal weight on purpose. They thoughtfully eliminate non-essential items, find items that serve multiple functions and carefully plan trips to maximize their enjoyment. ...
Why in the world would an ULer want to eat their hearts out, I don’t get it!
Well, IMO you have the doers and you have talkers. You did it, your way and that’s great. Those with legitimate criticism, those who have done it, can say their piece
Those who haven’t done it or...
So with you Zamberlans and your 90# pack you’re doing 5 mile days, nice. Then I would assume your 18-20 day trips, get you total mileage of 80 to 100 miles? Impressive considering the number of creek...
LOL, I’m pretty sure there are lots of active duty solders that wish you were right about being the only one to hike in them!
