Blaze2Blaze Outdoor Treking

I have been hiking, backpacking and camping for too many years to count, but have never lost the enjoyment that I experience from being on the trail.  In the past five years, I have been joined by my hiking companion (trail name Robin. I am Batman to her Robin) and we have hiked, camped and backpacked in the Whites, the Rockies and especially The Sierra. In 2021, we completed the JMT by a "flip flop" north from Rush Creek to Yosemite Valley and then south from Rush Creek to Whitney.  In 2022, we started NOBO from Springer and made it to Damascus before COVID knocked me off trail.  We returned at Harper's Ferry and headed north but a broken bone sent me home again. I will be back in 2024 with a 3/12 start date from Springer.  Hoping to share my journey and experiences as well ideas, suggestions and opinions on all matters related to backpacking and hiking whether you are a thru hiker, section hiker or day hiker and whatever your level of experience.
