If you’re ever passing through Pennsylvania, do yourself a favor and stop by FAT KIDS SPORTS BAR in Dubois. Unassuming little hole-in-the-wall place with the best food that far west of Philadelphia. I’ve been stopping by after nearly every backpacking trip in the mountains for many years now. Heck, I create excuses out of thin air just to have to be in that area so I can get my fix. Always cheesesteaks and wings for me. Best wings I’ve ever had.
They just don’t make ‘em like they used to. You can’t beat that high carbon steel. You’ll pay for it in weight, but that might be a price worth paying.
Hey Locals folks, just a check in to let you know that I haven’t forgotten about you all. Since I’ve gotten back from vacation I’ve had my attention pulled in a lot of different directions, wanting to get out some Practical Woodsman content but just not being able. We got dumped on by a major snow storm and a brutal temperature drop and that has affected my schedule in different ways, too.
But I’ve got some good ideas that I’m chomping at the bit to get recorded and published, so don’t go nowhere! Practical Woodsman is my priority for the upcoming week.
In the meantime, enjoy this little unedited clip from a first day/night excursion into the snowy mountain backcountry.
