BK14 was used for everything from food prep to pack mods:

Certian death. It's a lot steeper then it looks.

Red mountian. Probably rich in iron?:

Wild blueberries all over the mountian. Made for some good oatmeal and snacks:

Also some tasty salmon berries:

When I wasn't carrying my pack I carried my BK9 on my hip:

My Osprey pack. Swear by this brand. Great design:

Closer to the lake. Good swimming but a little chilly at 7,000 feet:

The trail. It goes from Canada to Mexico but we only did 8 miles of it. Would love to take 5 months and trek the whole thing but I have this lame ass thing called work to go to. Thanks for looking everybody.

Beautiful pics dude! Thanks for taking me there. I miss the mountains terribly. I need some in my life.
 
Great landscape, great scenery, great pictures and some beautiful knives. Awesome. I wish I could walk there too, some day.
 
Right on Eero! Looks like an awesome time.
Thanks for sharing.
 
Where was your 8 mile stretch ? That's fantastic, I think if I hiked there I would consider some sort of helmet cam to get some video.
 
Awesome.
I've done a few miles of the PCT, but it's been far too many years.
Need to get the kids in gear and head back up.
Thanks for sharing.
 
Very nice pictures. I love the nature! Sometimes I really wish we had forests up here, with actual trees like you have.

Lol :D
Get down to Sørlandet. You could probably bring enough trees back north to plant your own forest and nobody would notice.

Back on topic: Threads like these make me want to cross the big pond and see the trails that the US have to offer.

It was a section off I-90 called kendell's katwalk. Tough hike but well worth it.
