@Sos99 The only items left are the kids sleeping bags. As of right now, everything else has been claimed.

@marthaah7 Yes, it’s still available. I will send you a private message so we can coordinate pickup. Thanks!

@LosDosSloFolks You got it.

Cleaned out a closet and have some gear I’m giving away. All is in good condition, and free to anyone who would like any of the items: CLAIMED*** Paria Bryce 2p backpacking tent. Lightweight, I think around 3lbs or so. Good for a casual backpacker. This was my spare tent, so it’s only been used a fe...

@chumley He’s usually pretty damn fast. He does not like carrying a pack though, when I force him to carry his own, he slows down a bit.

And he refuses to wear a mask, which is why he opted for online school this year, so he’s not struggling with trying to breathe through that while on a trail.

@Pivo My son has that shirt.

@chumley You’re the one who brought the attention to this forum, and now you’re making fun of how much attention s/he gets???

But, my goodness, #attack is quite descriptive for a kitty in a tree. #encounter is all it was.

@friendofThundergod Obviously you don’t measure your self-worth by how many youtube views you get.

The best mountain lion encounter I can recall is when Dallin shared part of his dinner with one because he mistakenly thought it was a dog. I wish I had seen his reaction when he saw it stand up on its hind legs and realized what it was.

@RedRoxx44 Fingers crossed we can finish out 2021 that way and start fresh in 2022.

This would be a good poll question. I’m definitely a north up preference. I feel like it gives me more directional awareness.

@AZHiker456 This isn't about finding your soulmate, this isn't about choosing a house or vehicle, this isn't about choosing a career. This is about wearing some footwear for a few hundred miles then throwing them away. I so wish I had never even commented that I liked a certain pair of shoes becaus...

@friendofThundergod Good, that means you’re relatively normal.

@AZHiker456 I have hiked in the Mtn Trainers, Mtn Trainer Lites, Mtn Trainer Lite GTX, and Mtn Trainer Lite GTX Mids. Zero ankle roll regardless of terrain. I guess ankle strength varies by person. Many thousands of people do the same outdoor activities as you are doing and they are able to find fo...

@AZHiker456 Why not try the Mountain Trainers (not the Lites), they have zero mesh.

I’ve been using those Salewas since last year and they’ve been good shoes for me. I’m on my fourth pair now. They are fairly pricey for the low mileage they seem to get (I get about 350 good miles, then another 50-100 before I feel like I’m walking on a skating rink) but I’ve found that ordering the...

@tdwood Maybe a dumb question—but is there any chance you’re dehydrated? Also, if you’re not using one already, you might want to carry a trekking pole with you for balance/stability.

@tdwood My (purely uneducated) guess is that your eyes constantly refocusing when you look up and down through the varying strength of the progressive lenses is causing the off-balance and eyestrain/headache. That is what happens to me when I wear my rx glasses that correct the curve for the astigm...

I don’t have progressives, but my regular glasses correct for astigmatism, and my sunglasses do not. I sometimes get an off-balance feeling in my regular glasses. I almost never hike in my regular glasses because of that issue, but I occasionally hike in my sunglasses since they don’t cause a proble...

@chumley It’ll be another 05-06
