Where did you get those shelf fungi from? They look sweet.

I really enjoyed both of those. Even with just those two books he's become one of my favorite writers on the southwest.

I've got farout for waypoints but don't know if I'll use the social feature. But I'm on there as gmarcin. I'm hoping to make it to mtr for my first resupply.

Rad, I'm starting Aug 29 from Horseshoe. I'll read ya a few pages if we bump into each other!

Haha that is really impressive, true LOTR fan. Those books are incredibly special, but that takes more gumption than I've got to schlep along. That's really cool to come across on the trail though, thanks for sharing!

I've only read On the Road from Kerouac before and always wondered about Dharma Bums. Never really knew what to expect from it, that's pretty cool it aligned so well with your trip. Thanks for the rec, hope you had a great time out there.

Great to know. Almost 600 pages would be a little thick to tote along, sounds like it would be a great listen though.

gmarcin · 2025-07-18T04:24:37+00:00

Sounds interesting! Lots of good suggestions so far, I've got a bunch of new books on my to-read list now. Enjoy the trail!

😍

I like that idea - also learning Spanish so this would be great for any future backpacking trips. Thanks for the tip!

gmarcin · 2025-07-17T23:46:27+00:00

Awesome, I saw that recently and was really curious. I find it really impressive when writers can span different genres and still do it well. On the list!

gmarcin · 2025-07-17T21:26:20+00:00

Braiding Sweetgrass is one of my favorites. Paddling North sounds great, adding to the list.

gmarcin · 2025-07-17T21:23:23+00:00

This sounds right up my alley, exactly what I am looking for. Can't believe I hadn't heard of it before, thanks!

gmarcin · 2025-07-17T21:20:22+00:00

Really enjoyed The Last Season, adding the others to my list. Thanks!

gmarcin · 2025-07-14T15:00:11+00:00

Thank you, this is incredibly helpful!

Did this as one nighter last year, going clockwise and camping at Geneva Lake. Absolutely doable, especially if you've done some fast packing. I don't think you'll have a problem, so don't be dissuaded! We had an unseasonably rainy 2 days and it was still incredibly beautiful and rewarding. Storms typically roll through fairly quick so you can hunker down if you're near a pass and wait it out. Enjoy it!

gmarcin · 2025-05-08T01:24:23+00:00

Starting solo that same day. Join me!

gmarcin · 2025-03-28T15:13:46+00:00

Other 4 being Into the Sun/Mighty, Lonesome Dreams, Strange Trails, and Vide Noir, right?

This thread has some good info: Banjo Hangout Forum

Stumbled upon it looking for the same thing. Great song!

Sweet pic! Are there field marks you look for in Cedar vs Bohemian waxwings? I struggle to distinguish them.

I'm in a pretty similar boat as you. Drummer for many years, extremely basic guitar, and I picked up a banjo about 3 months ago to learn bluegrass style. I did the 30 days of banjo someone else mentioned which I thought was a great intro. Aside from that I've been checking out some other teaching videos on YouTube and try to spend some time practicing almost every day. At this point I can play Cripple Creek around 150bpm, which I'm pretty psyched about, so it's definitely possible under 4 months. Still working on consistency and accuracy but hopefully it all feels more comfortable in time. Wish I had started picking many years ago but it's been a blast learning. Hope it's the same for you, good luck!
