Cheoah Bald is pretty awesome. I’d hike the section through the Nantahala National Forest and finish here.

As long as I don’t step on a steaming pile in the middle of the trail, I can live with it.

I can’t believe you left the Colorado Trail off this list.

The scenery blows away the A.T. (leading the poll right now). Check out the site and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

I got bit by a freakin’ snake. Fortunately it wasn’t poisonous, but it scared the hell out of me when I stepped on it and it stuck me.

Always take some booze with me. Maybe not an essential to you, but it helps me sleep at night. It also makes the staring into the campfire a lot more entertaining.

Agree with John Muir comments. Outstanding trail and far superior to the A.T. in my opinion (although it may not quite have the comraderie. http://www.trailjournals.com has my online journal.

Ahhh … here comes the hype. Most Alaskans, like me, are disgusted with this guy. We see 10+ Chris McCandlesses get in trouble in our backcountry every year. What makes this guys so special?

My dog has as much right to be on the trail as anyone else. I wouldn’t even consider hiking without my dog.

Hell yes, I mind. I mean REALLY! What’s next? Are you going to tax me again when I get to my campsite, then again when I get out my fishing rod, then again when I start my campfire? The government is begining to act a lot like my bank – charging me for everything I do. Common, enough man.

I’m surprised lightening doesn’t top the list. I’ve had some close calls with it over the years, especially while hiking in the Wind River Range in Wyoming. Afternoon thunderstorms seem to come out of no where out there and you really have to be careful – ie. get up early and avoid hiking in mid-afternoon.
