Made it through the pics from the Shenandoah AT section hike a couple of weeks ago and put an album of those up. You can find that here. In the process I discovered that the time was off on Loonie's T5i. By approx 13 hrs! That made going through them a challenge when trying to … Continue reading Shenandoah Album is up!
We started our zero day at Big Meadows off with breakfast at the lodge and then headed over to the campground to do laundry. That accomplished, we hiked up to the summit of Blackrock and then spent the rest of the afternoon stuffing everything we could do without for the rest of the hike into … Continue reading Shenandoah National Park AT Section Hike: Days 5 – 9
Loonie and I just wrapped up the AT southbound section hike in SNP (Shenandoah National Park) and it was great! This hike was unique in that we would spend alternating nights on the trail and in lodge rooms or cabins. SNP is one of the few places on the trail you can do this. Its … Continue reading Shenandoah National Park AT Section Hike: Days 1 – 4
The Ozark Trail section hike is coming up soon and I think we're all set. Just need to finish gathering up the food. We'll be covering the trail highlighted in yellow on the maps below. Roughly 21 miles. If the weather is in our favor we'll take it nice and slow so Loonie can try … Continue reading This Fall’s for Walkin’…

Still need to add captions but its progress. Don't expect "Ansel Adams" quality photos. I really noticed this year how bad … Continue reading Spring 2017 Album Is Up…
First off, our plans were dashed once again by Mother Nature. After arriving at Standing Bear Farm, completing the section from Allen Gap, we got ourselves cleaned up, resupplied and checked the forecast for the second leg of the trip - the three days in the national park. There was a good chance of rain all three days … Continue reading Off the AT and onto the OT…
Well, we're getting cleaned up and getting stuff together for the second part of the hike. Part one was awesome. Just a few pics and I'll fill in all the details once we back home. Sorry, but I gotta get some sleep! So, other than a short section in the Smokies, we've done Amicalola Falls … Continue reading AT update…
Almost go time! I just about have things wrapped up in preparation for hitting the trail. Deep Woods picked up an inflatable pillow but I'm not sure he's done anything else to get ready. He's had his hand full with all sorts of other stuff so he get's a pass. In his mind, I think … Continue reading Are we there yet?
Finally put some time aside to get back here and post an update. I've been busy with family, projects at home, work, etc. over the last few months. Trail-life has taken a backseat to more pressing matters. However, I'm happy to report that Deep Woods and I will be resuming our AT trek in the coming … Continue reading Update…
Featured pic is of the Snake River in Celebration Park, Idaho from our trip back in August. Been busy with family and working on the house and haven't made time to work my way through the rest of them. Hopefully I'll get to those in the next couple of weeks. Loonie had the two mirrored 750 … Continue reading Gearin’ Up For A Better Night’s Rest…
