And I do agree with Ned about going prepared. I hope that's common sense to
everyone intending to attempt a thru hike. But it is totally possible to be
prepared EVEN FOR A MULTI-DAY WINTER TRIP with a base pack weight of under
20 lbs. (Sorry for the caps... I'm going for enthusiastic emphasis
here...). You have to know what you are doing, of course...
Here is a cool podcast on ultralight winter hiking for your entertainment:
