    I always took my favorite concrete block that I like to sit on around the campfire.
    I do believe I would be miserable without it. Also the cast iron fire ring fits perfectly
    with it.

      Bro just went on my first hike and I invited a couple buddies who are solid at hiking and had done the trail before. They did not want to take breaks ever and for some reason wanted to get back at 1 rather than relax and take in the nature and get back a couple hours later. Was a horrible experience

    We don't have a lot of bears in the area I hike in, but we do have lots of fire ants and raccoons. One of my favorite things to do to keep myself occupied in the mornings is to leave my food bag on the ground the night before. The time spent picking aggressive biting ants out of my food bag is annoyingly meditative.

    I think I scored at lease a 98% on this test! Rad. I only broke my foot 1x from having a 60lb pack and me being 60lbs overweight and had to take 7 weeks off so that was awesome. No better feeling than loosing your trail family. The only thing keeping your spirits high enough to continue. Would recommend to any people wanting to be miserable. Don’t forget you will need at least three 20000mah battery packs. You know, for all the electronics you you need.

    Eat mashed potatoes and only mashed potatoes for your whole hike.
    Passive-aggressively gawk at other hikers’ food but don’t ever buy anything different or mix up your trail nutrition for max misery.
    If you get hurt, definitely don’t get rest or medical care. Just keep hiking on it but complain a LOT to anyone who will listen.
    Be sure to tell other hikers how they’re doing it wrong. Loudly and frequently!

    Maybe dress up as one of the knight s who say nee or something, somehow give us some slapstick. I'm not sure exactly what, because the observations are very on point, so it's gotta be somehow in the delivery that just doesn't get me laughing....
