Did a "mere" 4 mile hike yesterday with my daughter. 1000' of climb, but this trail is called the "River of Rocks" trail. There's a reason.
Probably 2.5-3 miles of that hike, my boots weren't on dirt. All rocks, from the size of an orange to the size of a volkswagen and everything in between. Took a 25lb pack. Definitely need to get more pack time in and see how to settle that Eberlestock so it doesn't fry my traps.
Took a day off today. Gotta get my lifting on track this coming week, but have some rides and runs to get in, and back in the pack for sometime next weekend, probably.
