florida camping sucks, its basically the everglades or the keys. both of which are horribly infested with mosquitos during the summer.

Originally posted by Polt Here are some pics from 2002. I was 11 or 12 at the time and went on a 5 day backpacking trip. Was hell at points, but was worth it at the end. We hiked in the Mammoth Lakes Area of California.

I hiked that area. I hiked the john muir trail, in 4 sections (a section a summer). The total trail is ~225 miles so we did roughly 70-90 miles a summer, about 10 miles a day avg. Hiked the highest point in the continental US, it was fun and I loved it, I wish I could do more backpacking but college takes a lot of your time.

I've been hiking/camping primitively/backpacking since I was just a little kid. I usually put in atleast 125 miles a year or so.

I'll post some cool pictures later.

These are just from some assorted hikes I've taken...only in about the last six months or so. Sorry for the big file sizes.

holy chet. id LOVE to go and walk around there.

I've hardly been outdoor since.
