What is the coolest thing you've ever found hiking in woods?
For me, it might have been cairns in VT or NH, left by someone, making me feel in a way not totally alone.

Well, I may not have found them, but the most interesting thing I've found was when I was hiking Cardigan and when I reached the summit, there were a couple of people dressed as bananas and having a couple drinks. They looked like pretty cool people

Re: What is the coolest thing you've ever found hiking in wo
1. Hiking alone - Welcome aboard!
2. Rako - Here's a good one. Labor Day weekend, Prema (my daughter) and I did a loop of Webster Jackson. When we started descending Jackson, we saw a small candy on the ledge. It was one of those inspirational things, where there is a quote on the wrapper. It read, "You've survived tougher." Although it would have been a neat thing to take home, I had a feeling I should leave it there. I'm glad I did, because most of the people who ended up passing us on our way out were folks who had done a presidential traverse (most of them starting very early that morning). There were even a couple ladies who did the traverse to complete their 48 list (Jackson was 48). Hopefully they saw that.
Running into the same people you saw a day or two earlier on another trail is neat, too. Seeing customers from your job in the middle of the woods.

When I was 11 my friend and I found one of the replica LOTR rings on the ground in the forest. I pretended was real. So I wore it around my neck on a chain for some time.

Found a full 10lb fire extinguisher. My guess is that some snowmobiler lost it, either that or the grizzlies were using it to put out their campfires.
