MIG 10 mile hike with 25lb pack almost died thread
Poast new message in this thread
Date: July 5th, 2026 7:03 PM Author: Cosmologist wasnt even gonna go out today. i was gonna do the overnight yesterday->today but conditions were shit so i cancelled and just drank yesterday. well i woke up and was gonna kill myself so i decided to go and test out the full pack weight (bag, pad, tent, water, food, clothes, etc) which was about 25lb.
- 25lb is a lot heavier than 15lbs (what i've been doing, read to the end) - didn't eat anything this morning because i didn't think i was doing anything. by the time i finished around 4pm all i'd eaten was a LÄRABAR and a bag of peanut m&m's - I ran into a dorky older couple who had also donned MOSQUITO FACE NETS because it was buggy as shit. We exchanged "wow these are nice"'s - At one of the campsites some maintenance volunteers were working on the trail so I said "thanks for being out here, trails are great" and i think the dude was gonna cry. He slapped me on the back several times as if no one had ever thanked him before. - every person in my immediate family is an IRL satanist and they should be jailed in perpetuity until death. I should be allowed to desecrate their remains. - some doofus and his gf had their husky on the trail and I veered off the trail to avoid. Well my "NO SNAG" hiking pants got snagged and there is a small thread loose. - sort of thinking i BONKED because by mile 8 i could hardly move and wanted to cry. - "i can't my back". 25lb is way fucking heavier than 15lbs. everything hurts. - my faggy TREKKING POLES were nice, but they also definitely make you work harder for the same distance which is kinda gay. - Given my enormous full pack, some dude with a tiny dog asked how many days i'd been out there. I said "haha yeah" because the answer was about 4 hours. |

Explain using the poles if it's more work with them than without. No poles, save an occasional Gandalf staff you find, is cr.
Good stuff thanking the trail volunteer. |

the poles take load off the legs and knees so ideally it distributes the work, even if it ends up being a bit more. so hopefully the legs and feet are better all week. also they help when its muddy, and keeping balance is easier on tough terrain. |

I don't think I would use them unless I had one of those fancy tents that use ur hiking poles to get ERECT, those seem Gucci as fuck.
