This is gonna get nasty before it gets better

Haha, it’s a bit of an obsession…

I’m a big fan of this one: https://www.mountain-forecast.com/ it does mountains, not trails. Just type the name of the mountain and it will give tons of detail.

Also, my personal favorite 2 day hike in the pnw is Old Snowy mountain in the Goat Rocks Wilderness

(Also a good example to test)

Ha, yeah, that sounds… Not great. Starting April 8!

I actually don’t have anything against the concept of voting third party. But only if one of those parties will put up somebody that isn’t fucking crazy. If the libertarians put up someone like Jo Jorgenson again, why would anyone vote for them?

*Except for SSDs.

Thanks! I’ve had some pretty nasty water before, but it sounds like the CDT is gonna take that to another level. Is it weird to be excited about gross water?

The orange thing is my sleeping pad. I prefer a foam mat to to a blowup pad.

And totally understandable question! I’m bringing a sawyer squeeze water filter. It connects to the top of a squeezable bag or a smart water bottle if your bag breaks.

The Continental Divide Trail. 3000 miles along the rocky mountains from Mexico to Canada. I’ve been getting the money together and looking forward to this for the last two years!

I love so much about Utah, and would highly recommend visiting, but will never live there again. The church isn’t that influential within salt lake City, but go outside and you’re just hoping for LDS instead of FLDS people. What really made me leave wasn’t the low abv beer or the mormans. The environmental inversion is truly hell

There are a few nuggets that are still only obvious when you actually think about it. Like don’t fight with a hill behind you because you might need to retreat, do fight with a forest behind you for the same reason.

Thanks! I’d love to claim it’s skill, but it’s roughly 100% luck

If you don’t like bananas, potatoes have a lot more potassium by both weight and calories

That’s the disease that may qualify you for financial compensation

Abandon all hope, sponges who enter here

Do it! We could do with some more posts around here!

This is right off the Green Tunnel, though I can’t recall the exact spot. I think it’s just after the Long Trail veers away from the AT.

That’s a steaming cup of mouthwash

Gear is always such a personal choice, and he probably knows more about what he needs than I do, but as somebody with bad ankles, an ASO brace is a necessity. He may want to bring one along just in case one of the guests sprains or twists an ankle. At least for me that can be the difference between taking 3 hours to get to the trail head and taking 6 hours.
