This is actually uncanny.

My wife and I have been looking at your tours for our 30th anniversary next year. I'm leaning toward the Kerry Way tour. We're also considering the West Highland Way tour, possibly the rail and trail version.

I guess perhaps the universe is telling me something... ๐Ÿ˜‰

If IRC, Republicans in the house are kinda holding it all hostage so that ICE gets funded as well. Pass all or pass none apparently.

Politicians playing with people's lives... Again.

That's what everyone should be protesting. โœŒ๏ธ

One of the greatest features of Bluesky is being able to block accounts.

I love my Enduro 2 and it seems like they rolled a bunch of its features into the Fenix. I don't know anyone who dislikes the Fenix. It's a solid choice for sure.

I feel cheated! ๐Ÿคฃ

I've rectified the situation for the hiking activity on my Garmin Enduro 2.

Thanks @craigdodge.org!

Well if nothing else you'll probably improve your battery life. My Enduro 2 lasts a bit over a month in smart watch mode before I have to charge it, vs the 5 days of life my Vivoactive 4 was getting.

Well, that's a bummer. I would think it's only math and I would assume that it would be something that could be calculated if you can track distance and elevation gain. If nothing else, I would have thought it could be calculated in Garmin Connect. Sorry to hear it's not an option for your Venu.

Interesting. I assumed all the Garmin watches calculated 3D distance. I also discovered that my Enduro 2 wasn't recording in 3D so I just enabled it for my "Hiking" activity.

Thanks for the info!

PS Google says 3D should be available on the Venue 2+.

New episode drop.

First Solo overnight backpacking trip of 2025.

I hike along the lower Deschutes River in the high desert side of Oregon. Zero people and an incredibly peaceful and easy hike with minimal elevation gain.

I've walked into the middle of a herd before and had them flow around me as they took off running. I was as still as a stone. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life.

Upgraded my sleeping pad. REI's anniversary sale paired with the gift card I received from my kids for my birthday pushed me over the top on pulling the trigger on a Nemo Tensor all season ultralight pad. Shaving 16oz off my pack weight.

Another endorsement for the WTA. They're a fantastic resource for planning your hiking and backpacking trips in Washington State.

Altra or Keen. Stay away from the Keen Zionic though, it has a treacherous tread.

Miranda Goes Outside and Wildbeare are my favorite female backpacking/hiking YouTubers by far.
