- What was your most embarrassing backpacking moment?

- What's the longest backpacking trip you've ever taken? (in mileage and/or days)
-
I did a 4 day hike of the AT.
- What was your funniest backpacking moment?
-
I was hiking during the winter and my friends hung icicles on my pack unknown to me so I hiked a lot of icicles for miles.
- What was your favorite backpacking experience?
-
My friends and I hike the Gorge in January when the temp dropped below 10. It snowed and the Gorge was beautiful.
- Please relate, in general terms, your backpacking experience.

I have hiked about 3 dozen times. Mostly weekend trips.
