I'm totally bummed. RedNeckArmy just turned me onto this thread. I'm only an hour away up in Boaz and would **LOVE** to attend, but this Sunday is literally the only Sunday of the year that makes that impossible!

If you run it again in fall I'll make it a point to be there.

So far I think I only have two guys riding with me. Everyone else is taking their own vehicle.



Does that sound right?

My pack is so heavy, it's embarrassing.  I need to try out a few changes in my gear, which means bringing a lot of stuff.

How heavy is it? What size pack do you have? Trying things out is what this trip is for, see what works or not. Maybe grab a few ideas from others too. I'm very interested to see what everyone brings.

It's an 88 liter osprey, around 45 lbs. with water and food.

It's actually pretty comfy, I walked around for 20 mins or so up and down the hill with no issues.

I'm not a minimalist.

75 liter here, and about 35 lbs. Actually probably lighter now, since I swapped up some things tonight.

let me know when y'all get in - bet I slept a lot better last night than y'all did. Enjoyed meeting and getting to know everyone. Thanks for letting us old folks go along. Alex & I had a great time but damn I'm tired. And thanks for not having a geriatric section marked off for us at the camp fire. Offer is still on reference reloading. Just for reference, this is how a sleeping mat is supposed to be used:

We broke camp around 9:45 this morning and packed all of the gear out. I'm back home but the rest of the crew rode with bcauz3y.

I had a great time this weekend guys. Glad I could participate, learn new skills and brush up on others, and meet everyone.

We ate lunch in Cullman around 1100, I just got home (Moody), and showered after stopping by Wal-mart and picking up some stuff for dinner.

Glad you made it home - reminded me I need to go by Walmart too. Just FYI - wife just dug two ticks out of me. One regular sized brown, the other the tiny light colored deer tick. Be sure and check yourself carefully.

I think they missed one of the markers. They showed up hours after you left.





That being said, I'm pretty sure I would have missed one of the markers if we didn't have help.



It was a hell of a course!!! I'm really glad ya'll did that for us.

That second section was nasty. Dead fall everywhere and on the steep side too. Didn't go as far as we wanted to because it was so rough. Had a good time. I'll put together a canoe camp out later.
