i used to hike the AT all the time when i lived in Virginia i was about 20 minutes away from it. If anybody decides to tackle that beast u need to do so much research about where u can stop for supplies along the way. its a huge undertaking. im going out to cali this summer and hopefully i will find the time to take a couple nice hikes and blaze juan in the hills.:smokin:

humpback rocks is off the AT i used to hike up there all the time. it been one of my favorite spots to hike for years. heres some pics. i found these on the net cuz i dont have a digital camera so thats not me in them.

Did some hiking in Box Springs Mountain Reserve here in Riverside today. I was out of bud but my buddy came through with a nice bowl up on the summit of the short hike that we went on (2186ft) elevation. Did about 5 miles today. He had his Ipod with speakers so we were jammin to The Dead, Doors and Marley all day.
I stole these pics from the Box Springs website. I will put the true pics on once they get downloaded. Late

So your daughter did ok by herself? Must have been pretty slow hiking for you though? I've been wondering when would be a good time to take my little girl out for the first time, she's 2 1/2 now. Last two years I've been carrying her around on my back. The pic is us hiking about 1/2 mile from our house. Now she's getting a bit heavy, however, and doesn't really like being contained anymore. I've been thinking about going out again once the weather gets nice but wasn't too sure. I'm just worried about introducing her too soon and having her wind up hating it. Did your little girsl have a good time?

hell yeah she loved it.
but my daughter is fucking strange.
she'll be 2 on sat.
she must and i mean must pour her own milk,
she has to change herself,feed herself.she wants
to do everything herself.sometimes its annoying but
i think its a good thing.
take your kid somewhere easy and take toys and lunch.
just go alone with her and youll see shee love it.
unless she dont then just have another kid maybe that one will.
out of three kids only one impresses me much.

That is cool. Kids need to get away from the TV, Computer, telephone and get outside
I have 2 daughters
and only one of them likes to hike
I started her really early (about 3)
and I used to take her on 3 to 4 mile hikes
steep as fuck
and she could keep up and can to this day
but my other daughter.
HATES even the mention of hiking.
She is more worried about her friends and being cool I guess.
I guess some you can convert
and some you cant
