Start ShoppingI'm 3 weeks into my AT thru, and a little over a week ago a bear swiped my bag from a PCT hang. My bag and its contents were nowhere to be seen anywhere around the shelter. Defeated, I went back into Franklin and got a basic dry sack as a placeholder until my replacement arrived.
Two days later, I found my missing bag at a trail junction like 5-10 miles past the shelter I lost it at! The food was all eaten inside and only trash remained, but I had my beloved bag back! I kept hiking on and at the end of my day, I ran into a group of people who I shared the shelter with where my bag was lost. One guy found it and packed it out thinking he'd run into me again, and he was the one to put it at the trail junction where I found it. The red loop on the bag was ripped off, and there were just 3 tiny pinholes (pictured) that were easily fixed by some duct tape.
After a bear had ravaged through my food bag, it was barely even damaged! I am dedicated to taking this bag with me to Katahdin 💯
this is anamazing story! when you complete your hike and you want us to repair the red tab let us know!
I was needing an accessory bag to hold my phone. My pockets are either too small or inaccessible due to my waist belt. This little since sack was perfect addition to my shoulder strap! It kept my phone and a snack. I liked the sinch bag for my phone because I could control the opening which I left open. I had plenty of room for Samsung s23 with the larger screen. Easy to drop in and take out.
Nothing beats coffee on the trail - except better coffee on the trail! I usually jusy use instant all-in-one packets but this gear and process are so cool and coffee tastes so much better! Thank Hilltop! See my review video here: https://youtu.be/5uao2cKaa5U?t=268
