[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 3994612, member: 42584"] What you would be looking at is a 1,000 mile overland hike. One site to look at is called [I]White Blaze [/I]which is for backpackers attempting to hike the [B]2,150 mile [/B]Appalachian Trail that runs from Florida to Maine[I]. [/I] When I attempted my thru-hike back in 2007 (only made it about half way) I found the very active and constantly updated [I]White Blaze [/I]Community of hikers invaluable for the preparations I needed for my upcoming long distance hike (backpacking) trip including: - Lightweight equipment (1,000 miles is a long way to haul [B]heavy [/B]stuff). - Cooking choices in stoves and accessories (kerosene {white-gas}, alcohol, multi-fuel, wood, propane). - Foods to carry (i.e. freeze-dried vs. dehydrated vs. fresh) vs. scavenging vs. commercial eateries. - Food preparations prior to the trip - shopping, dehydrating, freeze-drying, packaging, cooking. - Sleeping options like tents, hammocks, 'cowboy', bags/pads, dening, hostels/hotels. - Trail skills like first-aid, water, water scavenging/purification, self-protection, emergency shelters, etc. Even though the [I]White Blaze [/I]Community is primarily about the Appalachian Trail, it is also about everything related to long distance hiking and the advice given is NOT Brand promotional nor biased.
