I walked with an amish on the PCT… except it wasn’t a trail name :) How’d your hike go? Finish? When are you coming out to the PCT? Yep, I was around when she took Peach. Caustic came the first time we met, just seemed like a lighthearted joke at the time.

That’s great to hear.. It was a hard thing to choose an entire setup for someone else… tried my best. Did she finish? Did she like the gear?

Except I changed my name to Amish. Caustic was never a welcomed name for her instead she got the name Peach. I want to know why you named her Caustic. She did call people stupid all the time.

And then I saw the movie, and acknowledge the resemblance to myself. It’s the final actual picture of the real Chris McCandless that blew me away. Sometimes I look identical. The other similarity was our journeys. I’ve been to many of the places that Alexander went, and we share much of the same spirit. I loved the movie.

As for gear reviews, yes, it’d be worthwhile. I may do it someday, but it’s not a priority right now.

Has anyone ever told you that you and Chris McCandless (Alexander Supertramp/Lost in the Wild) look strikingly similar?

Can you review your gear choices, what you used and what you think worked best.

Thanks.

He was on the trail for nine months and you wore his underwear?!?! THAT’S crazy!

Glad I excited a memory :)

I’ve only hiked 35 miles of the AT, and one of my nights was at Overmountain. I’m really excited to see this, because I just had a feeling reading this that it was the same place. Sure enough. There we met Greenhorn, on the trail for nine months at the time, and he gave me his underwear to wear over my wet shorts. I also said his story was “crazy” to which he quickly responded “NO ITS NOT.” Good times.
