Here is a short example of a hike on moderate terrain.  Long distance hiking trails like the Appalachian Trail (2,197 mi.) the Pacific Crest Trail (2,650 mi.), or the Continental Divide Trail (3,100 mi.) can take about 6 months to complete.  The shorter Colorado Trail which runs between Denver and Durango (587 mi.) can take about 6 weeks.  Depending on the terrain, the average long distance hiker will average between 12 and 18 miles per day.  You climb up and down over hundreds of mountains.  Everything you need each day (maps, food, shelter, sleep system, water, etc.) has to be carried in a pack on your back.  The most important of these is WATER. You always carry water on any hike!  With a 5 day supply of food, your pack could weigh up to 30 lbs!

PARK ONLY ON THE RESIDENTIAL SIDE OF THE STREETS SO YOU DO NOT IMPEDE TRAFFIC!

 

Congrats to Vegantriathlete for the FTF!

I needed this D/T combination for my FTF Fizzy. With multi's it's always a risk that one or more coordinates will be off or one or more WPs will be missing. But, you miss all the shots you don't take. So, I raced out the door to see what lay in store for me. Fortunately, this one is very well done all around. The final is quite clever, too!

Make sure you read the description and come prepared.

I thought I was unspotted throughout. But, as I was driving away I noticed one of the neighborhood muggles wandering near one of the WPs. I do hope that he didn't mess with it. He definitely was keeping his eyes on me as I drove off. I think he even took photos of my license plate.
