I've been a member for years and have bought a number of their store brand items. The key is to remember to wait for one of their big sales or for items to hit clearance. Love the Sahara pants,...

The Palmetto Trail is definitely a work in progress, but it is progressing. Up to date info at their main site http://www.palmettoconservation.org/aboutthetrail.asp .

I'm definitely considering a...

This includes the motor trails (Natchez Trace, Overmaountain Victory etc.)

I "dumped" mine when I was in my 20's. I'm just now getting my credit rebuilt, and it is a major pain now that I'm looking to do things like buy a house. They will garnish your wages, take every tax...

I've found jarred pesto with the Ragu style pasta sauces. Classico is pretty good.

And pesto is much better when made the old fashioned way without a blender/food processor. Think pesto = paste =...

If you are a chocolate consumer, be warned that Cadbury and KitKat in the US is not the same as it is in the UK. Here it's manufactured by Hershey and has just a little bit of that Hershey's...

If the tent is a-rockin'... :banana

True, but if you couldn't get a signal the GPS would be useless. Also, a map is much lighter.

I get about 6 hours on my PN-30 using alkalines, 10-12 hours using the Energizer Lithium 8x. That's with everything at stock, not energy saver settings. I'm looking at getting some high mA Ni-Cad...

I always carry maps, batteries like to die at the worst times. However, I do love my GPS. It's just an add-on tool, and definitely not required.

I have the Delorme PN-30. I got it for $200 from...

In my opinion, this is rather simple:

1) If you wish to carry a firearm, and it is legal for you to do so, that's your right. It's your hike, and your choice to carry the weight.

2) If it is...

I followed the thread comments on Youtube for some information. It appears this is near Malaga, Spain, and it was constructed years ago for maintenance on a nearby dam. It was then abandoned, and the...

Good for you! I'm now on the "Going from ordering a Warbonnet BB 1.7 double layer to a 1.1 double" diet. Lighter person in a lighter hammock seems like a winner to me :)

No, but it took me all of thirty seconds to get on Google Maps and look at the route based on the info from the website in the post. Rather than offering my opinion without any knowledge of the...

You know, my Portugal jersey with the big Figo #7 on the back is some kind of Nike wicking something or another :-?

Then again, it's not something I want covered in trail funk either :D

The first World Cup I ever "really" experienced was 2002. I had just moved to Lisbon, and team USA beat Portugal. I felt darts shooting out of my neighbors' eyes for about a month or so. Eurocup 2004...

ShLep, the proposal is to widen an existing two lane road. In another thread, you were upset because someone did not take your opinion seriously. Perhaps if you offered your opinion less, and stick...

While you're shopping, make sure to check out bicycling clothing. I found a jacket at REI on clearance in the bike section (Canari I think the brand is) that was about 4 ounces for $20 or so. No...

Or bacon. Why, I could go on for days about bacon.

Now, now! Let's not let this thread become one of those "I trained and equipped my wet dog to launch a shoulder fired missile, should he filter or use Aquamira before going to sleep in a shelter"...

I'm not going to say if anyone on here has given me any ideas about How to Become a Whiteblaze expert :)

I think that about covers How to Become a WhiteBlaze expert :D .

This is very important. Soon, you can have as many posts as the folks who've been on here for years and have done multiple thrus!

... so make sure that your thoughts can not be contained in only one.

Hi all! I started lurking here in 2003 or so, finally registered in 2006, and rarely post. I started thinking about the trail hardcore a couple of months back, and got into the habit of hitting that...
