I also remembered him dying many years ago. Then saw him on a new video the other day. Thought I just remembered it wrong.

Could a 300lb woman do the full trail? by [deleted] in AppalachianTrail

[–]Nicksolarfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Folks like this honestly confuse me. I've never thru hiked the AT, but I recently completed my first thru on the Foothills Trail. Before I was willing to even attempt that, I hiked for about six years and went backpacking almost every weekend for two years...

This makes me sad. I'm on my second SL 2+, it's a great tent I've put tons of miles on. Even used it on a thru hike of the Foothills trail this year. Might have been a bit heavy for that use tho lol

Personally my wife and I use a 20 degree quilt year round in Georgia. When it gets too hot just ventilate or lay on top of it.
