As promised, I’m getting set up to do a video blog this hiking season. I’ve got a few videos on my YouTube channel now, so check it out at: Puffins Hike YouTube Channel

The first few videos talk about some memorable experiences in my first few years on the trail and there’s also information about my hammock set-up. Don’t forget to subscribe to the channel if you want to keep track!

Oh, I forgot to mention that the first casualty of the hiking season has already happened. A thru hiker who started a week ago went missing on the AT approach trail in Amicalola State Park. His body was found Wednesday. The cause of death is not yet determined. Wow!

45 days until I’m back on the trail!
