With a trip like this, there are the moments that stick with you, the memories that you take along, and the individual challenges you struggle through.
#tbt Trip Report: John Muir Trail, July 2014
#tbt Trip Report: GR 20, June 2014: “It was the best of temps. It was the worst of temps.”
The GR20’s reputation as one of the world’s top trails is, I think, perfectly justified. It is vertical, rocky, rugged, and visually spectacular.
Trip Report: North Country Trail (94 miles)
Personally, I’m glad we did this stretch of trail, and I enjoyed it. It reminded me of the STS and the Donut Hole Trail, though I think the hiking was a little easier.
Trip report: Utah Grand Staircase / Escalante area (IO: VMO+ – 11 day – Spring 2018)
Harris Wash was almost as pretty as Coyote Gulch, but didn’t have the crowds that Coyote would likely have on the weekend.
Trip Report: MST Williamsburg to the Mason-Dixon Line for the Grand Finale! (Apr 2018, 76 mi)
Before exiting the Buchanan State Forest, I signed the last trail register, pausing to reflect on how lucky we are to have the Mid State Trail. Thanks to DCUL for starting the trend and to Evan for getting me hooked.
