The Slack Packer's Guide to Hiking the Appalachian Trail"Have you ever considered thru hiking the Appalachian Trail or just part of it, and you were put off by the thought of hefting a backpack that weighs 50 pounds or more and the dread of having to set up and break down camp each day for days on end? If so, you should take up 'slack packing' where you take only a daypack, enter and exit the trail every day, and you are ferried to a B&B, hotel, or hostel each evening where you have a bed and shower.

"Have you ever considered thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail or just part of it, and you were put off by the thought of hefting a backpack that weighs 50 pounds or more and the dread of having to set up and break down camp each day for days on end? If so, you should take up 'slack packing' where you take only a daypack, enter and exit the trail every day, and you are ferried to a B&B, hotel, or hostel each evening where you have a bed and shower.


"The Slack Packer's Guide to Hiking the Appalachian Trail is a must have book for the curious, novice, or experienced slack packer, as well as the experienced thru-hiker, for the Appalachian Trail. More than just a resource on how to plan and prepare for your Appalachian Trail adventure, it is a travel journal of the authors' experiences slack packing the Appalachian Trail, where everybody you meet has a 'Trail Name.' If Bill Bryson had this guide, he would have finished hiking the Appalachian Trail."


-- Ray W. King, attorney at law and veteran hiker

Durable
My dogs love this one so much that we had to order another one so they wouldn't fight over it. They usually destroy toys in less than a day, but this one has lasted months now.

Determined Chewer Approved
Durable, but not impenetrable! My 68lb Lab got this in the mail today and happily chewed on it for around an hour non-stop. She is a strong and determined chewer, but not a super chewer. She destroys "moderate" rubber chew toys in a flash, but doesn't like hard nylon chews, so finding a rubber chew that can withstand her dilligent gnawing and suit her preferences is a rarity. This one absolutely is a win! The material is most similar to nylabone's Rhino rubber (compared to the Crazy Ball), and with time and continued chomps it will sustain damage, but for my dog (strong, not super chewer) it takes a lot of time to wear out and the early breaks are tiny like specks of sand. It's a safe choice for my dog, and she loves the texture of this toy!

The One
It’s actually indestructible 🤘🏻🫡 My dog has destroyed every “aggressive chewer” dog toy on this website. Finally found one that is true to its name. Will be ordering many more.

Watch your aggressive chewer
My pit bull chewed up one of these in short order. Probably OK for normal dogs but not aggressive chewers. UPDATE: He swallowed a piece and had to have surgery for obstruction…
