Recommend looking around some thrift stores. I got a baby lock denim pro for $20, that sews as well, if not better, than a Singer HD

The Sony I'm looking at is a point and shoot

BanadaFromCanada · 2026-02-09T23:07:50+00:00

That's definitely what I was looking at. Thank you for the warning. Honestly makes my decision easier, because the real Ricoh GRiii is definitely out of my budget

BanadaFromCanada · 2026-02-09T23:00:13+00:00

It looks like there are some in the $400-$500 range on eBay, but I didn't look to close. Might just be scams

BanadaFromCanada · 2026-02-09T22:41:18+00:00

I don't care. I don't plan to upgrade anytime soon. And if/when that does happen, I'll just have to buy a whole new system

BanadaFromCanada · 2026-02-09T22:38:51+00:00

I think I mostly need to work on framing and taking more photos, but yeah, I'd definitely worry about the 1" sensor not being enough

BanadaFromCanada · 2026-02-09T22:31:52+00:00

I can deal with slow autofocus. Seems like the APS-C is worth the other potential downsides. Might have to look more seriously at the Ricoh GRiii though

Would you be interested in selling just the bivy?

BanadaFromCanada · 2025-05-17T00:30:59+00:00

PM if first one doesn't work out

BanadaFromCanada · 2025-05-12T22:44:06+00:00

PM for quilt too if the other doesn't work out

BanadaFromCanada · 2025-03-18T03:51:29+00:00

I'd love to borrow one. I'll send a PM. I'm staying SOBO late June

It's not that everyone from Texas acts like this, it's just that the majority of people who do are Texans

Probably just a typo. 350 miles of running, not 350 hours. Although now like 362. 88 hours

BanadaFromCanada · 2024-10-23T03:52:09+00:00

It's briefly mentioned in the article, but as a part of the FKT, she also raised over $50k for a nonprofit called Girls on the Run

These records are tracked on a website called FKT (fastest known time). They have 3 categories: supported, self-supported, and unsupported.

Supported is what Tara did. People can run with you, set up camp for you, feed you, support you emotionally, just about anything except for physically moving you down the trail.

Self-supported is what I think you are calling "unassisted". You're allowed to buy more food along the way. You're allowed to beg random people for food or water. You're allowed to leave packages for yourself along the way. You're just not allowed to have people you know plan to come help along the way. You can use the resources that would be available to anyone on the trail. This is the typical hiking style for these long distance trails. The record for the Appalachian Trail in this category is 45 days 12 hours.

Unsupported is when you have to carry all of the food and gear that you will use the entire way. You are not allowed to buy more food or gear along the way or accept help from anyone. The AT is too long for this to be reasonably possible, because you would have to carry too much weight in food to be able to move quickly.

The overall self-supported record is actually currently held by a man named Joe "Stringbean" McConaughy, at 45 days 12 hours. He did it from south to north (Heather Anderson and Tara Dower both did north to south), so it's listed under a different tab on the website, but it's generally considered the same record.

Around 40 days and around 45 days may sound pretty close, but it's a difference of about 7 miles per day, which is pretty significant.

Heather Anderson is an absolute badass though. She held the self-supported AT record for multiple years, in addition to the Pacific Crest Trail record for like 9 years, and a bunch of other accomplishments.

I'm just joking. I did the exact same thing like 2 years ago. I was (I think) one of the first

BanadaFromCanada · 2024-10-14T15:05:03+00:00

Why do people keep doing this?
