    When I saw it and she said it's all edible I thought it might be in the same family as dandelion, the Asteraceae, and low and behold it does. I also guess it's probably called milk thistle because it oozes latex like dandelions.

      Oh yes. It’s a trail but also a groomed xc ski trail. So lots of people book it for overnights. But during the day it’s open for anyone to hang out in.

    That's the only trail I haven't gone on in that area. That animal grunting was probably down in those stream drainages that you cross just before you get to the main river. I too had a similar experience where I was going to the top of Bald mountain (the lookout) and I heard a very large animal breaking one inch diameter branches just out of view, all along in front of me and to the side of me. I have heard other reports that a bear is often spotted in that general area.

      That had to of been freeeaaakkkyyy! Bears don’t tend to worry me too much. Most often then want nothing to do with you. It’s the thought of a big cat or something you can’t see or identify that you know is there that really gets under my skin

  • @davislindsey9719
    @davislindsey9719 2 місяці тому

    From a thru-hiker... this is for day-hiking and 100% inaccurate for overnight use. Waterproof boots take much longer to dry than mesh trail runners... waterproof socks. Pack covers wet out fast and are inadequate. Buy once, cry once rain jacket at 2lbs you'll cry about that weight more than once. A $20 frogg togg rain jacket at 6oz will keep you just as dry, and trust me, you're gonna sweat out the inside no matter what. This is for day-hiking!
