We
each used the 14 ounce G4 backpack from GVP Gear on our CDT
& AT hikes. Then

Snow
Peak's Giga Power stove was recommended to us 2 weeks before we left our first
PCT hike. We liked
the small size and ease of use so much we decided to go with it.
FOOD

of our favorite sources of dried vegetables and fruits.
Mary Jane's Farm has become a source of dried
foods. We especially like their corn salsa.
Quaker
bars have become a staple for our trail
snacks.
