    A tip for water bladders... When you are home, keep them in the freezer between uses and they'll never get moldy!

    Did trail magic is duncannon two days ago. Only saw 5 hikers total. You can definitely see the different mentality between thru hikers and day hikers. All 4 of the thru hikers faces light up when I ask of they wanted a drink. The day hiker looked like I was trying to give candy out of a creepy van lol

    Taylor, consider wearing snake gaiters over the ankles & calf that are puncture resistant to the snakes. We saw people wear these when we lived in Africa. We love watching your RUclips videos. Congratulations on reaching 1,200 miles. That's a great accomplishment!.

    when you hit these local breweries or brew pubs give them a shout and if you had some food or beer you really liked let us know. Its good for a small business to get some publicity, you own one so you know it is tough and everything helps! Looking forward to your reviews on the new tent and why you switched. That’s not a cheap item to replace!
