Hello from Uncle B

[Uncle B]

Don't quite know how I found this site but I'm glad I did. Nice magazine with some great stories and some awesome pic's. It doesn't carry all the clutter that Backpacking Magazine does. I hope it can remain that way.

I live in Hesperia Calif and prefer to do most of my hiking in the spring or fall. For summer, I usually take a week or two up in the High Sierra's if I can get away. At 48, I've been backpacking on & off for over 32 years now, and will always be striving to get my pack weight down so I can keep getting to where I need to be. Looking forward to watching this site grow and hopefully making some contributions along the way.

Thanks TrailGroove

Welcome to the site and thanks for the compliments on the magazine Uncle B! Hoping to make it out that way soon once the weather warms up for a trip...Maybe the JMT - Hopefully 2013 is the year!
