TJ akaTeej,
Glad this got re-started on a positive note. Thanks for all your work and effort up north. We met last year at Abole Bridge while I was waiting for “Traction” and the 2 comandos were entering the 100 mile wilderness. Soo funny.
Have a good year and stay in touch. I’ll be spending my time on the PCT site this year trying to keep “Traction” alive thru one more trail.
Cheers, POPPIE

“I would’ve liked a comparision photo of those guy’s gear”

It looks like you’re trying, Teej, but “those guy’s gear” should be “those guys’ gear.” Guy’s is possessive but singular, which used with “those” is internally inconsistent. If you had written “that guy’s gear” it would have been correct.
