I can't get over how cool it would be to be able to combine all my /out/ gear into a single, inflatable tentcouch.

Do we have any tripple crowners/or thru-hikers here? Share some stories!

>>2672561 So I was doing a weekender not far from the the south trailhead of the AT a year or two ago, and stopped at a shelter where a thru-hiker was so I talked to him for a while. Looked like an aged college hipster sort of guy (maybe mid 30s). Anyways he was going the opposite way (south) down the trail and was literally like five miles from finishing up. So I asked him why he didn't just go ahead and finish it was right down the way. Apparently he didn't want to finish. I asked him why and he just said something about getting a job (his words not mine). Lol so I asked him what he was going to do when he got off which seems like a natural question and he got sort of defensive and started talking about all sort of dorm room shit about life and finding a way to stay on the trail kek. He seemed spaced out, like he couldnt hold a normal conversation. Anyways no skin off my sack, I moved on along.

>>2672277 Because I like towns and I really like food. Besides I had the money budgeted for it and I wanted a good time. Id hike lots of miles and then chill hard in town. Lots of partying and fun. Id do roughly 20-30 a day on trail and my longest day was 70 miles. Generally my bigger days were 30-40 miles a day. But that was like 16 hours of hiking. Id be dead after it so id hitch to town and drink and eat as much as I humanly could.

Buy your replacement shoes ahead of time, on sale even, so you're not at the mercy of hiker town prices. Don't buy fancy oatmeal, no hiker food, pasta bombs and wraps for days. Gotta shower, but split a room and just lie to the motel employee, but camp as much as possible.

So, I both asked /ck/ and /an/, but /ck/ was fucking useless and /an/ advised me to ask you too guys . If you had the option to get an animal for milk, which one would you get? Ive recently got a house in the countryside with some land and ill probably be moving there by the end of the next year. Ive already planned for a garden for muh veggies and crops, but I also wanna slowly start getting some animals too. Im definitely starting with some chickens, because they are relatively easy to take care of and id love some fresh eggs every morning and some meat. Probably gonna get a pig too, eventually. Thankfully, I already have buildings for those on my property But what animal should I chose for dairy? A cow seems like would be quite challenging for the first time. Also, it seems like its too much milk, dunno what to do with it every day, unless i try selling it which I just cant be arsed to do. Sheep seems like a better option. Love sheep milk and especially cheese, but they also seem like they need a lot of care every day and you need to babysit them a lot. Goat seems like the best option. They are basically retard-proof and basically take care of themselves, just have a patch of land where you can release them to graze whole day and theyll be fine, which I do. On the other hand, goat milk is more of an acquired taste, I dunno if ill be able to just drink my coffee with goat milk every day, but I guess ill get used to eventually. Any farmer anons here with experience?

>>2672013 Even if you were small scale- someone always has a bull. Anyways, the way I see it- if you are going to keep a few you may as well keep a few dozen- the advantage of keeping a few dozen is mostly to keep the underbrush beaten down in areas that need it.

>>2672100 any time someone mentions keeping goats instead of cattle, I assume it’s because they don’t have the space for cattle or they are afraid of a large animal. People who don’t have the space for 2 dairy cows and the yearlings don’t have space for more than 10 goats and people who are afraid of cows shouldn’t own a billy goat.

I am looking for some shoes to use for daily walks on asphalt and grass. What are THE most comfortable walking/light hiking shoe? I used to have a pair of Nikes that were almost like socks. Super light weight. However, they were unstable and caused fatigue due to this. Right now I'm using a pair of Tod's Driving Loafers which are very nice and comfortable to wear, but not when walking with them (I guess they're made for driving after all).

>>2672396 No specific recommendation. I had a pair of Garmont trail shoes that I got 10+ years ago for 60$ that I used for all my day trips, hikes, walk etc. They also fit like socks, the secret sauce those had in my opinion was a wide toebox and being pretty airy and light. Every shoe or hiking footwear I've purchased since has been disappointing comparatively. No comment on fatigue other than a joking

Sounds like you just have soft feet and you won't be comfortable in any hiking shoe or boot.

How did people live in cold and wet climates way back in the day (1000+ years ago)? I'm talking Scotland, Scandinavia, etc. You're always filthy, cold and wet and yet they spent their whole lives in that. I understand they bathed every now and then but I'm sure most of the time they were filthy and miserable.
