>>1608888Thru hiking is comfy because it's such a directed and simple life. Every trail day is more or less the same, get up, stuff some snacks in your mouth, pack up gear and shelter and be on trail sometime around sunrise, walk all day through beautiful wilderness, only stopping for short breaks to eat, pee and dig a cathole and 10 hours later roll into camp tired and hungry, get some food in you, set up shelter and go to bed, and the next day will be the same. It's such a simple life, every day your goal is so clear and you're making progress towards a greater goal of finishing the trail every day. Nothing could be better.
It's very comfy
