Around The World In Seven Years
Daren Wendell is about to start walking around the world. Starting with an Appalachian Trail thru-hike. According to his site theearthexpedition.com/ he should be starting within the hour. He will probably have to much weight judging by his March 1 entry.
He does not have to carry everything. Judging from the site he should have a good bit of support. It will be interesting to see what he ditches along the way. I carry a base of 25 pounds and that is considered heavy in the long distance community. Hopefully he will stop at the Walasi-YI center in Neels gap and let them go through his pack.
There is a picture of his gear on the site. What do you think needs to go? Bear cannister, 1 litter fuel bottle, nalgenes ?
Well, Good luck, Daren! Sound like fun to me. May you stay healthy and wise.
I have a bit of a problem on my hands! I find it quite the task to condense everything that I own and have to live off of for the next seven years to under 40 pounds :{ It has been a couple days now and I still don't have it all figured out. I am afraid to weigh the pack but I know it is inevitable. Let's just hope it is under 40 because I am not sure what I can leave behind!
