12th of May

Got a PCT permit!!! Start date is a bit later than I’d like, but that’s okay.

Next step visa and upgrading gear.

Seconding this, my 3F backpack is great and very durable (6 countries as checked baggage, 4+ months of carry with no sign of any usage).

Does it have all the bells and whistles of a pack thats 3-4x the price? No, but you know what features you get when buying.

I’d never purchase a knock off sleeping bag, way to risky.

This will get towed in Germany if you report it, as it’s putting others in danger by forcing them to use the road.
