so, my 6000 yard cone of thru-hiker thread is pretty much gone - didn’t think I’d live to see the day.  Do I win a prize (other than all the cool gear….)
Packs, tarps, stuff sacks, 2 quilts, 2 liberty ridge jackets, 2 LR pants, minima vest, primaloft pants with side zips, 8 pairs of aid ladders (climbing), chalk bag, numerous repairs on gear and normal clothing, gear modifications, primaloft hood, polarguard booties, polarguard mittens, fleece mittens, prototypes, and probably other stuff I forgot!
only took me about 5 years
