>>1204718>just not the priceSame, I'm EU so US gear is extra expensive. However, I buy almost all of it off ebay for a nice big reduction.
>Your thru hiking the AT?Yeah that's the plan, I am fairly confident that I'll be able to complete in 4-4.5 months if all goes well, but you never know. My visa will allow me 6 months in the US and I'll have move than enough cash saved up to cover any delays that crop up.

>>1205139I cut off the hipbelt in a foolish impulse, I don't miss it as I didn't use it 90% of the time, however, I find them super useful for more sketchy bits of a trail. I had a lot of fun boulder hoping on the GR11 and a hipbelt was handy then just for the extra stability.
>MoroccoYeah I'd love to head to the Atlas mountains, just don't forget that anywhere higher up in the winter will be getting snow.
