    Raul,

    Nice report, and I couldnt agree more about those steps down Bear Mountain, just plain brutal I did happen to meet up with Rooster and Mouse that day, they told me you ran into them and gave them the heads up thanks for that
    It was nice meeting you and Kent, thanks for sharing your fire. I wanted to stay up later and talk hammocks with you, but just didnt have it in me. Sooo happy to see people from the forum out there. My friends have been teasing me about being a hammock forum "dork", they just don't know what they're missing

    Hey SnowWhite,

    No worries I understand how tired you were after doing that trek from WildCat Shelter to William Brien. That is probably the most up and down section there is in NY and very exhausting.

    I'm glad your crew was able to catch you that day. Good luck on the rest of your hike.

    Raul, really enjoyed the prep videos before the big hike and reading this post was very enjoyable for me. I'm looking forward to the videos. I do think you should change your handle to Water Monkey. If it fits wear it proud.

    I created another thread for the videos. Glad you liked the report. We'll see about the new handle. If I fall one more time It's a done deal
