trail

About five months ago I was introduced to a website called Wikiloc by an organizer for a local hiking group. For those who are unfamiliar with it, the general concept is that you can record custom hiking trails which include waypoints, pictures, and descriptions of each trail. Since I've been a...

Brent’s trail opened up this spring for the first time. It is a very strenuous 8-mile hike, which is surprising to find in Iowa. Most of Iowa is relatively flat, but the Loess Hills is some very rugged terrain, and Brent’s trail seems to pride itself with how much elevation gain and loss there...

Every year my family and a group of 10-12 families get together and have a camping or vacation trip. We call this Friendscamping or Friendscation. This year we went to Hocking Hills, OH. None of us had been there before but we had heard good things, so we booked sites at Hocking Hills State...

I have several food recipes that I like to prepare in advance for a hike or campouts. I thought I would share a few and maybe get some new idea's from y'all.

Hi, I’m looking to go backpacking more, I’ve stopped for a while. I was looking for a trail about 30 or 40 miles that I can do in 3-4 days, and something away from the bigger, more known places like the White Mountains. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello from the Mid-Atlantic are in the USA! I don't know all that much about forums but thought I would join to share ideas and skills. I'm into bushcraft, camping, hiking, etc. Thanks again for the add! Joe to the woods (Because I don't just go to the woods... I Joe to the woods... LOL...)

It's winter down here, not that it gets that cold in the sub-tropics! Went on an overnighter with my brother to the one of the oldest National Parks in Australia. Camped in a rainforest thats on top of a mountain. We had the clouds come down night and our gear was soaked but theres nothing like...

Should be trail running Saturday morning, bringing a buddy in for the workout. If anyone wants to join or just meet somewhere along the line for a cup of pine needles and a side of BS let me know and we'll make a good plan.

This seems like a version of the Appalachian Trail but for bicycles. Obviously many more miles have been added and it is not completely connected yet. I can't imagine being in the saddle for as long as it would take to get through this. Also, I'm sure the majority is on pavement. Any takers...

Hey all, Its been a while since I've posted on here (I've still been perusing during my free time though). I just wanted to drop a line to some of my fellow BCUSA members that I'm planning on hiking the Appalachian Trail this spring (hitting the trail end of March) and am heading Georgia...

Need some well earned 'Green Time' when i get from the Niger Delta mid May and was hoping i may be able to get some good info from you guys. I'm looking at spending 2-3 weeks doing a trek along some on the southern sections of the Appalatian trail. Im currently looking at flying in and out...

Cold steel trail hawk refurb. I received one for Christmas and I might finally be satisfied with the results. First step was to sandblast the head. I'm lucky to have a father with a well outfitted garage! I think that sand blasting turned out better than paintstripper because it...
