    I have great admiration for your hiking ethics.

    Consider yourself lucky. The campground you stayed in, is the largest campground in Colorado. Lake Pueblo State Park is the busiest state park in Colorado as well. On weekends and holidays it is an absolute nightmare to stay there or even drive through the park. Just be safe. CHEERS from Colorado

    I've stayed at that campground twice during my back-and-forth-across-the-country- adventures over the past few years. I thought it looked familiar from the last episode, and today I was certain. Love that your parents are so supportive!!!

    Like everyone has said it’s so different the topography you are hiking in especially when you look at the horizon in front of you! I can sense the excitement of finally getting into real hiking. Wait…..you’ll climbing mountains and mountains. Actually that is best part in my book. Glad you are with parents and relatives. Kindred spirits surround you. Forever onwards young man! 🐢🌽🥾🏔️👍

    Thanks. I look at back packers now and then and wonder why so close to the white line. So many people on phones and not paying attention. I’m in N E Ga. Not far from the A Trail Total respect for what you’re doing.

    Humans are meant to be social creatures, so a few I think a few socializing delays are in order.
    Of course, as a professional brewer, beer stops are always encouraged... however, I do recommend sticking to only 1-2 lower alcohol pints while hiking, especially in the heat. That can change a bit when the hiking day is done.

    On my daily walk today saw tons of trucks on highway 50 a mile north of me. Love the trail from Pueblo west to Pueblo West or is it West Pueblo? I love the town of Florence (antique shops) but it's so hot in the middle of summer (when we like to get to the mountains).

    One thing I don't like about the Hornet is the fly attachments. On the blackside they clip in; on the yellow side the guylines just loop around the tent pegs. Strong winds have pulled those off. Wondering if I'm doing it wrong and there's a more secure way to attach the fly on the yellow side...?

    • @FirstChurchofTheMasochistHikes
      @FirstChurchofTheMasochistHikes  2 месяца назад

      It’s the same with the tiger wall and other similar semi free standing tents. It’s all about getting the tent stakes in securely at an angle. I’ve been through a good number of wind / storm events and the only time I’ve had the fly start flapping was where the ground was too soft. Usually i can back up the stake with a large rock assuming I’m not someplace like south florida

    Danger Danger Danger (remember that stupid space sitcom?). Right west of highway 50 at Strong City Ks is the Tallgrass Natl Preserve and you can actually hike among the Bison. I think they say to keep 100 yards between them and you though. Saw a deer on my peasy 2 mile hike this morning although yours looked like mule deer.
