Nice, I use running shoes these days, but have yet to go out during the winter and I make sure never to carry more than 30'lbs.

I believe my pack is going to weigh right around 30-40 pounds, not exactly sure, I need my scale back so I can calculate the exact weight of all my stuff
Gonna be getting a 5 pound bag of hemp seeds for the trail cuz they're hella nutritious, also a few MREs and six 400 calorie ration bars

Skip the MREs and ration bars, they're more trouble than they're worth IME. Canned chili is way more practical and cost effective.

Send me an address I'll hook you up with a bunch of MRE stuff. Cant send the heater bags, but lots of separated food stuffs.

Already got the ration bars but I'll take your word for the MREs, they're kinda pricy anyway
I'll have a pretty decent amount of money when I get out there so I'm not too worried about starvation, plus I have this bushcraft book with an entire section dedicated to edible plants that can be found in the woods
You'd be surprised how many plants humans can eat and get calories from

I just eat bread and stuff, groceries are pretty cheap
Would be more worried about proper bear-bagging, its late in the season if you wind up in bear country, they'll be foraging overtime, eating babies and all that.

Yeah that's one of my biggest concerns is the bears, thankfully there are only black bears in CO, no grizzlies but I definitely plan to have multiple cans of UDAP Bear Spray on hand at all times, the one I already got came with a pamphlet with lots of good information about bears & their behavioral habits, what to do in the event of a bear attack, etc.

I've had a lot of dreams about bear attacks
Attacks are rare though, they might get at your food

According to the pamphlet, roughly 80 percent of bear attacks happen because the person in question got too close to bear cubs, momma bears will viciously defend their young, they take no chances
The other ~20 percent are a combination of people suddenly running into and startling a bear at close range, not being submissive when a bear is acting aggressive, bears smelling food at a campsite and in extremely rare cases a bear may look at a human as prey but the truth is most bears try to avoid people like the plague

Sup people.
Doing lines of coke alone.
I walked 3 miles at 1am to get .7g for me and my roommate (I fronted him the cash) and when I got back at 2:30 he said he was gonna go to bed. I don't blame him, but it was his idea to get it in the first place (after I had decided to put it down for a while) and I went through a good amount of trouble to get it so we could do it together.
On top of that, my guy eyeballed the bag and after weighing it out, it only had .35g 
Hopefully getting the rest from him tomorrow and the cash from my roommate

I woke up last week after sleeping out on a deck to a bear ten feet away from me chilling up in a tree. I have a picture of it on my cell phone somewhere. BTW bear spray does not really work that well against charging bears.

They aren't that much of a problem even to people that hike/fish/hunt here, most wild animals aren't as humans simply aren't a major food group . It's actually just the same with sharks, most people are scared shitless of swimming around sharks but they're fairly docile creatures when it comes to human interaction. Pepper spray will just piss off a bear though, handguns work but are a little excessive and unnecessary with adequate preparation.

Bear spray is really effective against people though, that shit is basically tear gas .
