Despite the pandemic, it's an even better opportunity to get out and enjoy the rays and all that Mamma Nature has to offer. I have enjoyed many day hikes and climbs so far this year. I would really like to embrace winter more with hiking and snowshoeing. Keep it up! Have fun, stay healthy and safe. Embrace those hobbies! We always love hearing from you!

    Very informative and practical method to pack your pack. I like how you combined your sleeping bag and airpad to get in the same spot. My tent is little funny shaped, almost like a kidney bean, so I think it's going to go on the outside. I am working on a new gear set up for the 2021 hiking season and this gave me some good ideas. Thanks so much , Rocket.

    I may need to look into getting a few lighter versions of things. My pack is like 40 - 50 lbs while in ready to go state. I've been trying to wear it on shorter hikes and walks to get my body adjusted to the extra weight, but so far 6-7 miles is the longest I've done semi comfortably. I'm worried about burning too many calories by carrying that much weight. I'm sure I'll ditch stuff I don't absolutely need as I start moving up the trail. I plan to rough it though. The main thing I plan to get in town is food. I'm prepared to eat fish if I have to. I'd prefer not to take the life of another creature though. Anyway, glad to see you've still got the spirit of the wild. The PCT looks like no joke. I thought to maybe do the PCT rather than the AT, but with the extreme weather transitions I feel like the AT will be a good place to start. Plus when I pass through TN I'm going to hop off trail for a couple days to visit my family. Sorry for the novel, but when the wheels start turning I just set it free lol. I've enjoyed everything I've watched of yours so far so I can't wait to see what you come up with next. Your aura is absolutely infectious. Hope you have a lovely day.

      I used them for 2200 miles. What doesn’t make sense?
