Introduction

Love to backpack. Often do it alone since I can't seem to convince my friends to get out. Should be great to meet others who are so inclined.

Tell us about one of your favorite outdoor adventures.

Weekends in the Catskills are relatively easy to do on a regular basis without using up vacation time.

Do you have current Wilderness First Aid training? If not, would you be interested in getting this certification?

Sounds like a good idea

Are you a 4-season backpacker? What's the coldest temperature you've slept outdoor in.

Absolutely. I've done plenty of winter camping since my teenage years. Just need the right equipment. I'm pretty handy around camp if you need some help with others that might be less experienced.

What's your favorite/least favorite 'critter' in the outdoors?

Bears are always exciting

What's your favorite snack food on the trail?
