>>904778The statistic I've heard is that only 1 in 4 people who start a through hike make it; the others drop off the trail at some point.
>>905481thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I've been thinking about doing a thru-hike for over two years now, I just can't wait another year.
Pack weight when I did the above story was ~50 pounds, and it was beyond brutal. Aiming for a base weight of 13lbs~ + food/water. I'd like to actually enjoy the hike.
