Hi Friends,
I am looking for a ride back to my car at Springer from Damascus. I have been section hiking this year and have reached my end point... I will help with gas and the driving if needed:)...

Thanks!
Does anyone have Mr. Ludwig's address by chance? I forgot to get it before I left Unionville. I owe him a picture. If you could send it to me as a PM that would probably be best. Thanks

I wish I would have known how freaking addicted one could become with a hiking trail. :) Who'da thought?
I got rid of the stuff sack that came with the bag originally... and got a sea to summit dry bag (an air evac which I had never heard of.) It worked great. My bag was able to be kept dry even while...
Great advice from the gals! As for your shower question... you can pretty much find a shower in every town. Hostels usually offer a shower for a price if you choose not to stay. If you are planning a...
I bought a Mountain Hardwear *15 Phantom... and I LOVED IT. I used it through out the south in very chilly temps down to 12*, I think and it was awesome! Also used it again in NH and ME, and although...
for my hike I usually bought cold cereal, each week I would switch up the kind to eliminate getting tired or it. Also bring some powdered milk and whalah a great fast breakfast. I usually had...

was planning on it... now it looks as though it will be closer to the 12th:) Good luck!
also if you bring along an extra bag they make excellent bag covers overnight.. thus keeping your stuff and bag dry. ALSO if it is rainy or snowy in a shelter you can put the bottom of your sleeping...
I love both my pink chacos and my pink crocs very much. Heck I wear both of them with socks in below 0* temps. When it comes to hiking I love my crocs as my "camp" shoe.. and depending on the trail...
i hear ya love the packers. the pack didn't deserve to win that one, that is for sure. But yay NY... good luck. now I can go back to thinking about the trail...;)
I had an experience somewhat similar to Amazonwomans recently. Although normally very supportive my father started talking about me not hiking or getting me a hand gun. I am very much opossed to...
All sorts of goodies including my MH Phantom 15 Bag... whoo whoo! :D
Sometimes on previous hikes I get that two minutes of "why am I here," but then it goes away and I have an amazing time... playing in the woods has been my job for several years.
I plan on taking...

So I really love photography and taking pictures... so my dilemma is this... I have a really amazing digital slr.. but it weighs a ton... is it wise to part with it and go to a sad point and shoot?...
What about Maidens Cliff in Camden Hills State park. It's not too hard and the view will be wonderful this time of year. This is also connected to Mount Battie so you can make it a longer hike if you...
