Agreed, didn't even reported my 2011 thru hike, recognition wasn't even an issue.
Remember it's a non establishment policy or well have solar lights & showers at every shelter, plus fees for staying there.
Is that Columbian coffee from South Carolina or perhaps its from British Columbia?
It's a bit uncertain which is best as I don't see it, I only see Colombian coffee to chose from.
I say ignore the weather forecast as it won't help you pack for the trip. Take the necessary gear knowing that the weather won't have any extremes. You'll need rain gear, and a sleeping bag...

March is a terrible / great time to start. It just depends on your experience / disposition / outlook / and weather conditions. It could be much better or worst if you leave later. For every one...
I've found that these types of weight loss tools are overly complicated for a thru-hiker. The the thru-hiker will lose weight no matter what his/her food intake. The question is how to minimize the...
It states that it was update 12/17/20. Perhaps it's a work of fiction.
It seems she walked out and it was described as she was rescued. She called the Rangers on her device. Ok, I accept that she fell and perhaps she did injure herself, but was the call necessary? Was...
"With the cooperation of the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Department, the Zoo agreed to provide a home for the two grizzly bears, Kachina and Kiona." I don't know their status, also I thought...
Though it's a common mistake it's just wrong. It's correct to say there's no grizzlies in Yosemite but you shouldn't say there's no grizzlies in California. One could correct the statement by saying,...
Back in 2011 during my AT Thru-Hike I remember some 100°+ days. One day I was commenting on my 10+ mile and someone else said it was over 100°, that's why we didn't accomplished any big miles....
It's not a hiker from the description of the clothing.
Years ago when they still had wire on the shelters I was at Mt. LeConte shelter area. A two or three bears came around and a Japanese hike was talking pictures with a camera that had a flash that...
It's a simple decision that has been answered by the hikers over the years: Trail Runners
Yes, you'll find a few that argue for boots, but the vast majority don't buy into boots. I went into...
30 years ago I could make one last for a summer worth of weekend hiking, possibly about 5 to 6 weekends. They were ok during the summer in the Smokies but I'd bring my sleeping bag during the rest of...
SOBO here we come!
Apparently it doesn't show as my first post, just a minor error in interpreting my post.
Remember, everything isn't as it appears. Not sure why it shows this as my first post, but I don't really care, much less care to correct the issue.
It's not my first post, but perhaps that's not important to someone as yourself that seems to know everything. The thing about HYOH is that no one knows everything so your opinion is merely an...
The truth is that no one knows what the correct choice is. If you stay you could be infected and the same is true if you go someone could infect you and you may infect another. Where you'll seek care...
During my 2011 thru-hike a bear thought she check out my backpack as I was resting on a road crossing. When I saw her an stood up she turned tail and disappear into the forest followed by two cubs....
Though my hike started in late April.
