		<description><![CDATA[So my big Montana plans got put off until next year partly due to money and partly due to foot issues. So I had the time off anyways and thought I would do some hiker closer to home. I waffled back and forth where to hike.  One major contender was the Stechoah Gap to Newfound [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think most people have a favorite place. A place that really means something to them. A place that becomes a refuge from the &#8220;real&#8221; world. For me that place is Springer Mountain. As soon as I start the .9 mile walk to the summit I can feel all the distractions from life fade away. Springer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The first week of April brought a week long trip with my friend from North Carolina Sweet Pea. It was kind of a strange trip in that we did Dick&#8217;s Creek Gap to Winding Stair Gap then flipped and did Springer to Woody Gap. For a total of about 60 miles. This won&#8217;t be an [...]]]></description>

Summer of 2008 to Summer of 2009 was such a great year for me. I backpacked all over. 2008 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well my personal trainer is insisting that I eat better while backpacking. He insists that just because I am burning lots of calories that it doesn&#8217;t mean I can eat all the snickers I want.  While I don&#8217;t like his thinking so much I do understand it to a certain point.
