Scarier when you consider bears were spotted there most days that week. Scared one off that night. The names come from a Native American battle. Thanks for checking it out!

Thanks. I took an REI Jet UL pack, Eureka Solitaire tent & Deuter Dreamlite sleeping bag. The whole pack including food & water weighed 14 pounds at its heaviest. No stove. Food consisted of gels & that sort of thing with a Clif Bar for breakfast & another one for dinner. I was low on calories, but OK. Brooks Cascadia running shoes.

What a cool challenge! I am just starting out hiking the AT in the Hudson Highlands (north of Bear Mountain Bridge). Trail running is all well and good, but carrying your own gear while trail running, that's something else all together. I would like to see what you have for gear, what kind of shoes you are wearing, what you ate.
