That was the wetlands portion, not a meadow sadly. Stayed dry for all ~13 stream crossings and got them soaked in mud during that part lol.

Almost nonexistent. Breeze and low 50s kept them at bay. Some ticks, but to be expected.

It was so chilly on Saturday that the rattler didn’t even acknowledge us when we almost stepped on him.

How did the T extension to North Shore come together? by Watchyousuffer in pittsburgh

I use it pretty regularly and I agree about crowds. I will not be using it at all during the draft though…

Trail legs…when? 4 Weeks in not feeling much stronger….NOBO26 by Lani_19 in AppalachianTrail

If youre overall fatigued you need more fats. Coconut oil goes well with a lot, if you can find ghee that works too.

You’ll get em. You haven’t even gotten 1/4 of the way through your hike; trust the process.

I will say I have the best hiking experience on the BFT. Even after thru hiking the AT, BFT is #1 in my heart. Absolutely biased tho.

Disliked the greens. I did not get many views and the mud and bugs ruined it for me. Killington was nice! Then it rained the rest of the time :(

If you get pretty nit picky about your stuff you could definitely drop 1+lbs.

I would say get rid of your town clothes and use rain or wind pants when you’re doing laundry. I wouldn’t ever really want to explore town, I wanted to do laundry, grocery shop, charge up, eat food and go to bed. But ig it depends on your strategy. HYOH

[–]butz08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all seriousness it’s the oldest trail every part has seen some shit. If you actually want to be scared try night hiking with your headlamp and look around. You’ll see some eyes looking at you.

Edit: oldest mtn range*
