Appalachian Trail - Day 59 & 60 – Mile 534.1

Thanks for watching! I hope you are enjoying the videos :)

My Trail Name: Hawk

Share with me any and all comments on the videos, the hiking, the gear, the stupid way my hair fluffs - the good, the bad, the ugly ;)

If you are interested in any of the gear I’m using, here’s a list of most of it:

BACKPACK
My backpack on the AT is a Deuter 65+10 ACT Lite, but I found these good ones on Amazon. However I do recommend trying to find a lighter pack for thru-hiking - closer to 2 pounds - (this will be 4-5lbs)

I traveled with a girl throughout SE Asia using this backpack and it did very well for her. It says this one is designed for women because women tend to have wider hips and the bag is designed with this in mind.

I really like this Osprey bag. Osprey is another excellent company

SLEEPING SYSTEM

TENT

CLOTHING
I’m wearing the Mountain Hardware, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about the Silver Ridge as well.

The best socks I’ve ever worn!

OTHER STUFF
I’m using the UCO Air, but I have also read good reviews for the Nitecore

I just use water in hand or down the crack, but some people prefer the bidet
