I used to hike a bit........I don't think there is one particular thing. Depends on the season and how long of a hike I imagine. Staying dry is a must. A good knife is always needed.SCJason

My girl's uncle just bought a cabin up in the mountains here.
I have full access.
Can't wait.
Evil Dead style party, waiting to happen. I'm going to be doing much more hiking now.

Watch out for those vines just outside the cabin that wrap around your chicks ankles and then coil up and violently tree-rape her... Thats no fun!Originally posted by Fletch XXX

Bruce Campbell did a book signing at a gothic book store just up the road from me last year. 'Dark Delicacies.'

You need a sturdy hiking boot. Do not rely on your Chuck Taylor All Stars. If you are going into the "woods" you should at minimum have Day Hiking boots. A sturdy sole makes a huge difference when you are walking over tree roots and rocks and will lessen fatigue on your feet.Comment

Depends when and where you hike. There's a list of stuff called the "ten essentials" you're supposed to take with you..
http://www.backpacking.net/ten-essl.html
..but if its a short dayhike on trails, I usually take just water, some food, and maybe extra clothing.
If you're going alone, somewhere that isnt frequented by lots of people, or somewhere you don't know, carrying enough stuff to get you through a night or two isn't a bad idea.
I spent a 35 degree night out in hiking pants, tshirt and a light sweater because my headlamp quit on me once. I wasn't really lost, I was in Yosemite near the Washington Column, and I couldn't find the descent route back to the valley floor without light. There are a series of gullys in that area, and if you pick the wrong one to go down, you end up on the 'death slabs".. a series of increasingly steep, smooth granite slabs that drop 4k feet. Spent most of the night marching in place to keep warm.
You don't need boots btw. I've hiked thousands of miles.. alot of those carrying a heavy pack.. in lightweight running shoes.Last edited by Gutterboy; 05-28-2003, 07:36 AM.Comment

But I agree, proper footwear is one of the most important things to bring.

Haven't been to the cabin yet, but word is that the biggest pain is carrying enough beer for your stay on the 2 hour hike. A 12 pack of beer bottles is rather heavy.
So we're thinking of setting up one of those little brewing kits there, and hope its done like the next trip back.
Is there such a thing as powdered beer?Comment

I think Gutterboy is onto something. My buddy hiked the Appalachian Trail Georgia to Maine. He went through all the planning and stuff and ended up getting some magazine's top rated Salomon hiking boots. After a couple miles they started cutting his feet, so he sent them home and bought new boots.
By the time I saw him in Pennsylvania, he was on his third pair of walmart brand sneakers. He said they were the most comfortable shoes he could find, but the foam didn't wear well so he had to keep changing them out. I don't think he would have made it the first month of his hike with sneakers because of the cold, but once it warmed up a little he was fine.
I think for a hike the single most important thing you could bring is water. For some strange reason the best canteens I ever used were just plain 2 liter soda bottles. Durable, flexible, lightweight, cheap. And bring extra socks.Comment

In 30 years of hiking, I have never seen anyone pack in a 12 pack of beer bottles. I would like a picture of that please. Bring Bacardi 151 & Tang - while backpacking you pack as light as posible. BTW - hiking is one of the best exercises - I just lost 11 pounds in a week doing it.Originally posted by cherrylula

heheh
thats the first thing on the list, problem is with this cabin you cant simply drive up to it.
You have to park and hike to it.
So if you want beer, better carry it. ;)

Alot of my friends use 1.5L box/bag wines on group trips. Light is right though.. my base packweight (all gear + pack, except for food and water) for 3 days in the sierras is less than 10 pounds these days.Originally posted by POV Porn guy

Yeh, usually from Bloomingdales to Neiman Marcus. Its a fun trail with lots of interesting smaller stops on the way, especially when you hike past the Valley of the Food Court, where you can hunt for wildlife flavored in all sorts of styles.
Actually, I used to hike in California. But, now livin in Florida, it isn't much of a hiking state unless you're into fending off alligators like that Australian dude.

The plan is also to keep a bottle of chilled champagne in the car for after the hike out. And one beer before leaving the cabin.
My only issue with the hard liquor is I think it would be a lot rougher of a hangover than beer. And I would need to drink way more water to compensate for the dehydration than I would with beer.Comment

What are you all fucking alcoholics?
The last time I drank whilst camping I tripped over a root and cut my leg. I learned not to drink and camp. That was 14 years ago.Comment
