Hey, while I have completed over 900 miles of the trail, this will be the first time I get my hubby on the trail. We are plugging a "gap" in my trail miles (have already done SNP and north of HF).
What I am asking:
1. Bugs/temps the first week of August: We haven't decided whether to Hammock (without bugnet) or if we should just tent: Note - shelters would be preferable; we would just bring the hammock/tent as optional). \
2. Slackpacking... I am thinking we will stay at Dicks Dome Shelter and Rod Hollow Shelter - after that, hit Bears Den Hostel... and - if possible - slackpack... to Key's Gap and then HF....
Ideas on this? (Especially, any ideas about "treats" or cool things that my hubby would like!) --- any info on water would be great too!
Thanks!!!
