    New section for "The American Discovery Trail"

    What Is The Most Useful & Usless Item You Packed

    Most useful - my Macabi skirt - used as a sarong after the shower - kept me cool, water resistant.. lots of pockets for items you need while walking - oh and safety pins - big ones. AND Leukotape. Most useless.. the ceremonial spork - but I carry it anyway.

    Vaseline...or Vicks VapoRub?

    Honestly .... I think making sure your toes have wiggle room - perhaps buying a half to one size larger is key. I messed up two Caminos having the wrong size footwear - without a big enough toe box. I have tried just about everything ointment wise - but I swear by Leukotape. I know where the...
