Subscribed. I love watching older hikers because I am one. :) Am curious to see the hurricane damage and how the trail is doing through that area. I live in the CA Sierra where bear canisters are pretty much required now everywhere, so I recently sprang or one of the carbon fiber ones (lighter weight than the bear vault) and in reality, it’s just easier. I’m no good at hanging my food.

Just subscribed and liked. Seems like you may be one of the half dozen or so I follow in 2025. One comment tho . . . your voice is not as clear as most other channels. I'm not sure what you can do to improve it, perhaps other KZbinrs could make suggestions. It might be your equipment, or simply repositioning the mic. You'll get a lot more subscribers and likes if we can understand you better. Best of luck . . .
