Some of my best friends are through hikers..I would immagine the grow would have to end or be lrft in anothers care..The trip would be a nice chance to gather some different strains from the different people you come into. If you do the CDT stop in at Chama New Mexico or Tierra Amarilla. Some trail angels there that will help out, if you are seen hiking the highway.

As far as stash goes, I would bring pressed hash, and a small hash pipe. Green weed would get smoked too fast and crushed to dust in my pack..
Maby you could have someone send green weed to a town youre about to hit?..

Props to all through hikers, Yall are a rare breed. Keep pressin on.

a person who tackles a long-distance trail in one go should constitute a thru hiker.

in the US the three most famous LD trails are the Appalachian trail, the Continental Divide Trail and the Pacific Crest Trail. All of these trails are 2000+ miles.

basically it is a really long walk.

they make backpack for dogs
make your pooch carry the green
sadly i smoke to much(cigs) to enjoy the long hikes i used to take as a young man

grew up in Potter Co PA and i could literally get lost for a few days and just LOVE it !!

On though hikes I carrry a wide mouthed mason jar full of pre rolled joints of sativa weeds for the day time. I just keep a few in my pocket. Also in the jar I also have a small glass hash pipe with a couple grams of Indica based hash to burn mixed with sativa nug at night. It makes it way easier to sleep on a thin backpakers pad. I keep the jar stuffed up in my sleeping bag when I'm hiking.

If it wasnt for pot I coulndnt backpack because of my bad stomach. It is the only thing that works.

I got into hiking about 3 years ago. There are some awesome trails around here. The most Ive covered on foot in one outing (consisting of several days) was about 40 miles or so, it sounds pathetic but its pretty intense terrain.
If you have a nice trail bike like a supp'd up 125 you could get from the vallejo area to past berryesa without using a single paved road in really good time. I like to take my dirtbikes out pretty far and hiking out from there, with a range of about 30-60 miles/day with the help of my petrol friend...= ) depending on the terrain. Lots of valley and foothills, but no tru mountains....damn close though. Ild consider my self a decent hiker.

My favorite place to hike probalby is rocky mountain national park in early september, or late may. the crowds are a little thinner, but the weather is nice. there are strorms most days all summer anyway including these times. There are some hardcore hikes out there.

Here are some tips for everyday hiking there
start early like get up at 5 or 6 am to do a long hike. you dont wanna be near a peak in a storm.
always have in your pack- Rain gear. extra socks. fleece. gloves. knife. 2 ways to make fire. water filter or tablets. at least a half gallon of water per person. tarp. nylon rope, or tent stakes. first aid kit. There is no poisonous snakes in the park so you dont need a snake bite kit.

It may sound like alot, but you should always be prepared to spend a night out doors. It is eaier to get lost, or get hypothermia than most people think. Summer storms in the high passes make snow and hail year round. I was hiking to the key hole this summer in the longs peak area, and saw 14 people day hiking up there with out rain gear, and got caught in a summer storm and all got hypothermia and had to br rescued.

I dont reccomend this for most, but I always have a trail gun. I dont care if it is a national park. If I'm in the wilderness I have a gun. It is a last restort fail safe. to get food, or use as protection. I know that there is many other options to scare away bears and mountain lions, which I would always use first.... but if they dont work, then I refuse to get injured or killed in the wilderness. I am at the top of the food chain.
Also it is really hard to get lost in rocky mountain national park, you would most likley be found with in 24 hours. I just live by murphy's law.
