Incredible speech of propaganda and lies.

I got through 4 pairs of shoes whilst hiking the PCT this year, 2 of those pairs were Wildcats and I had exactly the same experience as you describe here. Really comfortable shoes but yeah, I got these holes appearing where the toebox flexes, usually after putting about 400 miles on them. In...

Heading up into the Tehachapi Mountains, Mojave Desert

Here's a few from the PCT this summer :) San Gorgonio Wilderness, Southern California San Gabriel Mountains, Southern California Owens Peak Wilderness, Southern California Forester Pass, Sequoia National Park Mather Pass, Kings Canyon National Park John Muir Wilderness, California...

I chickened out in a rental Patriot and left it before the road drops into the wash. Ended up hitching a ride from a guy (and what I assume were multiple wives :lol:) in the back of their truck. Man, that was a bumpy ride...

25 minute documentary about the failed speed attempt from earlier this year...

I enjoyed this... Trailer Full film:

I really hope I'm wrong but it seems the paving of HIRR is just a matter of time :( Always being in rentals I've never made it all the way to the end but I've enjoyed great hikes, nice solitude off that road and a couple of dicey trips down there in wet weather. Can you imagine an endless train...

As others have said, the main positive of this designation in my eyes is that it protects the area from oil and gas drilling. Those of you who've driven out around the Aneth/Hovenweep/Cortez area will know what a depressing sight it is out there with all those rigs. I don't believe a new...

Great news! Any chance he can squeeze in Greater Grand Canyon Heritage NM before he goes too?! ;-)

I'm hiking the PCT in 2017 so I'm keeping an eye on CA, OR and WA. Oregon has been getting it hard so far - very big dumps, early in the season. California not quite so much, it's currently about two-thirds of average for this time of year in the Sierra, which is similar to or just a little...

Scottish black-faced sheep, looking kinda majestic haha. That guy followed me for a few hours whilst hiking. The northern Sweden pics look like @Ben's pics 0f the Brooks Range in northern AK. I'll bet they are very nearly the same latitude, no? Yeah, they must be very similar. Whilst I was...

No Utah trip was a big bummer for me this year. I almost made it out there in October but plans didn't quite come together. Instead I visited a few places closer to home in the UK and Europe, plus I squeezed a month's trip to California into the summer to finish up the JMT. Twice this year I...

That looks like good fireside reading. It looks similar to a publication we have here in the UK called Sidetracked Magazine. It contains a lot of good hiking, biking and general adventure articles for when you can't get outside yourself....

So cool. I would love to volunteer on a project like this.

I'm showing my lack of snowshoe knowledge :uhhuh::uhhuh: Forgot about Tioga Road being closed too. Ignore me folks, nothing to see here! *tip-toes out of the topic*
