[QUOTE="dfanonymous, post: 2988610, member: 97050"] The what they are doing, I don't think they do. I mean, even that one backpacker is a[B] sample size of one[/B]. If that person successfully through hiked the PCT, I don't think they would have as much of a problem. Even just backpack through hiking, you either start early when there's snow in the sierras, and you probably will end late before Canada when snow falls depending on the year… You can just do day hikes on your local flat scenic trail and fancy yourself a backpacker I suppose. Unlike that one dude, I’ve seen 100s of guy backpack in for hunting have issues. Typically navigation, a few times sick from water sources. A handful of times guys having issues on the packout. Leaving gear and offering us to take meat so they didn’t have to come back. I still consider that a backpacking issue. It should be factored in. Not just in gear but in capability. I mean guys have died doing mountain hunting in the winter and hikers die every year…people DON’T know what they are doing. A lot. The being soft really is debatable too, but irrelavent. That wasn’t my point. [/QUOTE]
