What are you guys using for a water filter for drinking water? I got an old extream xr bottle but it smells moldy now, haven't used it in a while. Would like to get something that is light and filters at a decent speed. Sawyer squeeze.

I like my old bones nice and cool I am with you 100%! The worst climb I have ever endured was up Mount Kinabalu in 90+ degree heat and 100+ humidity. But it sure felt great at the summit 31 degrees.

Do you guys shoot to stay in “good” shape all year or stay in “ok” shape and ramp it up 3-4 months ahead of season? I’m a 3-4x’s a week gym guy most of the year and ramp it up to 5-6x’s a week 2-3 months out.

I'm definitely an all year guy; maybe because in addition to a busy elk season I do a lot of snowshoeing/bc skiing in the winter and then really start backpacking in earnest in the spring and through summer

Did a nice hike today 13.6 miles with a little more than a mile in elevation gain or lose took right around 5 hours. Took a few more snacks today for the trip than last week some edamame. avacodo and apples. Energy level stayed up very nice, I ran out of juice on last week trip.
Got some new hiking shoes out today soloman ultras wasn't too bad, feet felt ok afterwards. Also used my new sawyer micro squeeze filter, this thing is awesome. It was awesome not running out of water today. Thanks guys for recommending it.

I try to stay in OK shape through winter. Some winters I do better than others. Too much other stuff to do besides working out.
I try to stay out of gyms and have been extremely successful in that goal...
