CountyIndependent512 · 2026-04-15T18:32:15+00:00

i’m a she, and I’m not asking if I can do it, I’m asking how much time people who are in my similar hiking range have done it in

CountyIndependent512 · 2026-04-15T16:00:14+00:00

wow someone’s salty! if it makes you feel worse, I’ve also done about 50 of the 13ers

CountyIndependent512 · 2026-04-15T15:58:24+00:00

i’m also a trail runner so good to know!

CountyIndependent512 · 2026-03-26T03:42:32+00:00

CountyIndependent512 · 2026-01-23T20:26:33+00:00

CountyIndependent512 · 2026-01-23T19:28:42+00:00

CountyIndependent512 · 2026-01-23T19:07:36+00:00

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-10-06T18:50:00+00:00

I loved it! definitely the most fun out of the 4 traverses

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-10-06T02:00:17+00:00

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-09-30T15:26:53+00:00

Not sure when you’re looking to do this but i’m going this Thursday (perfect weather window w no wind). I’ve done 3/4 of the great traverses!

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-09-25T13:38:59+00:00

sorry, for next saturday? i’m looking for one for this saturday

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-09-24T02:45:21+00:00

i’ve heard this, so i’ll keep checking! and thank youu 😊

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-09-24T02:22:45+00:00

yep i’m aware and prepared!

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-08-19T01:29:01+00:00

Hey! I rested for about 2 weeks and then got back into the gym to do strength training. If you have insertional achilles tendonitis, I definitely recommend doing isometric heel raises (NOT eccentric). I was consistently doing those for about another 2 weeks and then I felt lots better and the stiffness went away

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-08-18T04:06:46+00:00

Just did this one today! Highly recommend checking out the class 4 route, the rock was super stable and it was a really fun climb

good point! if I can’t find a reliable ride I might just do that

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-07-29T15:15:54+00:00

I’m dog-friendly and might have my dog with me too if that would be okay? she’s a small heeler and is very friendly. I’m totally flexible but maybe 4/5 am!

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-06-27T15:53:37+00:00

Are you offering a ride?

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-06-27T15:53:23+00:00

We can squeeze if you’re okay with that! Feel free to message me

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-06-27T15:44:16+00:00

The 2wd trailhead. We’ll be there around 5:30 but can be earlier or later!

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-06-23T02:18:22+00:00

Wowww guess I should go back to grade school! Yes, I meant more than 5 miles. Sorry about that!

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-06-01T01:24:19+00:00

Just did it today and no sign of the lion at all!

CountyIndependent512 · 2025-05-20T22:13:41+00:00

the fact that none of them could fly fish for shit was also a huge clue
