Jester member Registered: 08/08/13 Posts: 62	Hello all! As previously mentioned elsewhere, the "O'Mails" blog has been renamed. As a result, the links on the previous thread won't work. But you can still access all of the old articles here: Night Hiking To Mars And there's a new article, which you can find here: Hiker Claims Fastest Known Time For "Twiple Crown" Hope you like it! Thanks!

OregonMouse member Registered: 02/03/06 Posts: 6459 Loc: Gateway to Columbia Gorge	Love it! Turns out I have hiked the "Twiple" myself! Can we think of an award for someone who has hiked 5 miles on each of the three trails? Actually, I've done a lot more on the PCT and CDT, but that's my distance for the AT. In fact, I did that AT stretch (Hawk Mt. in Pennsylvania) while 8 1/2 months pregnant, which should be some kind of record.

Glenn Roberts Moderator Registered: 12/23/08 Posts: 1454 Loc: Southwest Ohio	QC seems to be an issue. In my experience, they're born dead by the side of the road. Also, the initial programming involves added equipment: "Why did the chicken cross the road? To prove to the possum that it could be done." So now you need a chicken - and I bet, like pack covers and tent footprints, they aren't included with the Pack Possum?
