About

A small notebook about weekend hikes, overnight trips and the gear that comes along. Most of the walking happens in dry pine forest and low hills within a couple of hours of home, with a longer trip once or twice a year.

Nothing here is sponsored and there are no affiliate links. I buy my own gear, usually second-hand or on sale, and write about it only after it has been on a few trips.

New notes appear when there is something worth writing down, which in practice means once a month or so. The RSS feed is the easiest way to follow along.

Corrections and questions are welcome at hello@drypinenotes.com. I read everything, and answer slowly.
