No XBox, no iPhone, and no cell signal. Remember what it was like? Nice to get back to the basics once in a while.

Campsite Near Rosman, N.C.
Winter #dayhike in the Nantahala National Forest near Rosman, NC this weekend. This campsite looks worth a return trip.
New Years Hike
New Years #hike in the #Cohutta Wilderness in North Georgia. 19 degrees at the trailhead – so I don’t think the boy needs to worry about the bears!
Homemade Waterslide
An afternoon of fun on a homemade waterslide in North Georgia. Sorry – had to take a vow of silence on this location.
Kid's Best Friend
Bed time, from a recent hike with the kids and dogs on the Chattooga River…
Episode 32: Backcountry 201 – Advanced Rookie Mistakes
“Backcountry 201” is the second installment in this mini-series where we sit around the campfire and discuss the fundamentals of backpacking. In this episode, we go “off trail” a bit – so don't take the show too seriously. We'll get back on track in future episodes and hopefully this is worth a few good laughs as you commute to work, crank out some Trail miles, or do what you do when you are not on the Trail.

Edisto River, Treehouse #3, South Carolina – April 12, 2015
This is a recap of our 23 mile float down the Edisto River April 11-13th, 2015. Day 1, we camped at Colleton State Park (near St. George, SC) and home to one of the friendliest park rangers I've met in some time. Then on Day 2, we caught a ride with Carolina Heritage Outfitters to the put-in at Highway 21 and paddled for 13 miles to Treehouse #3 – with no running water or electric but plenty of tiki torches and propane stoves. On Day 3, we finished the float at the Outfitters after a 10 mile paddle. It's a great trip if you ever get the chance.
