I can never say enough how much I appreciate all the support from the people on Patreon and all of you who watch my videos! I like to do video chats with my Patreon community and give them the most up-to-date updates from the trail, but since I think other people may have some of the same questions I still want to share some of the information from these Q&A's with everyone. So as my regular video updates catch up, I'll post an edited version of each Q&A publicly on Youtube.
It can be difficult to find reliable WIFI from the trail, but I hope to do these more in the near future. If you want to participate in the next Q&A head over to http://patreon.com/homemadewanderlust. Every patron, no matter how much you pledge will have access to all these Q&A's, and I will try to give as much notice as possible before they start. Hope you enjoy and thank you again so much for watching this channel!

Getting a good night's sleep is one of the most important things when completing a thru-hike. My sleeping bag and pad got me through the Appalachian Trail, but I wanted something a little warmer and a lot lighter for the PCT. Thank you so much for watching!
