Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
The shelters are wonderful, but they've transformed me into a 'soft' hiker.

Down sleeping bag.

Disappointed that the waterproofing membrane in one shoe failed, just a minor inconvenience really.

Advice for Others
Do it your way: fast, slow; heavy, light; all at once, in sections. Just do it!
