@egriega25 I'm so sorry to hear it, Edwin. There really aren't words, but I'm sorry, and I wish you strength in a trying time. Take care of yourself and your family.
@Berty_LW Sturdy boots (for ankle support/preventing falls), tiaconazole (for rashes), and comfy, loose hoodies (for anonymity - though fans are often more frightened of you than vice-versa).
Additionally consider: well defined trails, hiking during the day, & hiking with a friend. (2/2)
@Berty_LW Dear Meanderer,
A backpack is highly recommended for carrying supplies. Excellent supplies include water bottle and filter (prevents dehydration), granola, jerky and similar snacks (prevents starvation), bear spray (though bears are often just as scared as you)... (cont 1/2)
