on hiking the Trail Pacific Crest Trail
Pacific Crest Trail Planning: our thru-hike experience is with the John Muir Trail and Camino de Santiago, but we section hiked the PCT - completing it in Sept 2010. My definition of long distance hiking is hiking trips that are three or more weeks. The amount of preparation, and the mindset seems to change around that point. We covered the John Muir Trail and the Camino de Santiago on other pages of this site. On this page we have the Pacific Crest Trail and some tips we have learned along the way. Runs for 2660 miles from Mexico to 12 kilometers inside the Canadian border.Are you hiking or riding over 500 miles on this PCT in 2012? We’ve partnered with federal and state agencies to issue long distance permits. Click here for more information.

Gear Talk with Jason Klass
I've never been that into using software to create gear lists (mostly because I fear the daunting task of entering all the data on all of my gear). Many people use Excel spreadsheets and it works but it's not as convenient to slap together a gear list for a specific trip. You have to do a lot of cutting and pasting.
Vereniging de Rugzaklopers
Vereniging de Rugzaklopers Voor de ervaren Rugzakloper is dit bekend terrein, maar voor degene die voor het eerst meeloopt misschien een leuke kennismaking met het rugzaklopen: een weekeindje op de Hoge Veluwe. Natuurlijk mag iedere Rugzakloper meelopen op dit weekeind, maar we organiseren dit speciaal voor onze nieuwe of toekomstige leden. Het is bedoeld om je kennis te laten maken met onze vereniging en haar gewoontes. Ook kunnen de ervaren leden je prima praktijk- advies geven op het gebied van buitensportmaterialen of -technieken.

The bus is overloaded with school children. I have to stand upright in the bus. After a long ride through the Belgian Ardennes I ask the bus driver to put me off at the closest bus stop to the West Fork of the Ourthe river. Everyone is watching me with disbelief when I step out of the bus in empty fields in the middle of nowhere in the valley and I see them thinking “What are these paddles doing on his strange backpack?” The first camping spot on the river bank near Lavacherie.
