As you can see from the photo, I still had foot cream, sunscreen, first aid cream, and Dawn Soap at the end of eight days. The floss is for size reference, but I’m looking for smaller floss containers. I despise plastic floss picks when I see them in the woods. Whatever you use should be… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear? Backcountry Beginners Backcountry Forums

Overall the Pelican coolers have sharper edges and a bit more of an industrial feel than the competition. One of the first things to note about it’s design is that it has a larger drainage hole and a tethered drain cap, which is a nice feature. I have lost a couple of drain caps in… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear? Backcountry Beginners Backcountry Forums

To resolve this issue, I do not fill it completely up with heavy stuff. Honestly, most of my trips it’s a quarter full and the water bladder and extra water bottles are what makes it heavy. After the last few trips and hiking with a near empty bag, I decided to get a 20-liter bag… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear? Backcountry Beginners Backcountry Forums

Enjoy views of the Ozark landscape as you gain 500 feet of elevation up 2.5 miles to the top of Stegall Mountain. Camp out at the top overnight, catching a glimpse of a full sky of stars if it’s clear. The next section along Trace Creek is an enjoyable, quiet walk in the woods. Some… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear? Backcountry Beginners Backcountry Forums

All this means that your bag will be a little heavier than a premium bag when fully packed. While this pack won’t work for everyone, it’s a practical size for day trips, light travelers, and kids. Thru-hiking is defined as hiking the contiguous 230-mile backbone of the Ozark Trail in one trip. A thru-hike can… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear?

Prior to taking it out on the trail, I did give it two coats of silicone spray so that it would shed water. Packing-wise, I chose to line it with a garbage disposal liner. A perk of hiking lesser-traveled trails are fewer (or non-existent) permits and parking fees. The Ozark Trail does not have permit,… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear?

The canopy folds down to 52.5″ in length and easily fits into the roller bag with all of the accessories. One thing we love about Ozark Trail canopy tents are the accessories that can be added to the shelters. These include sidewalls, weight bags, and a host of other great add-ons that can really increase… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear? Backcountry Beginners Backcountry Forums

This pack fits me fine and is very comfortable for lightweight loads. It’s light enough that I don’t mind putting it in my backpack and it takes up almost no space at all. For day hikes this is just as good as (and lighter than) my Osprey Daylite that retails for almost four times more.… Continue reading how bad of an idea is Ozark Trail gear?
