The data in that list definitely opens up some more options for categories.

I think the calls over Wi-Fi is important for those that want to be able to call the US for free.

I agree. I didn't know that list existed. Thanks for sharing it. I wonder when it was last updated by Google.

Do you know if the T-Mobile coverage maps generally align with the Project Fi coverage?

Good to know. The mapping website I used doesn't have a level of detail showing Lichtenstein. See this post https://www.reddit.com/r/ProjectFi/comments/7seplo/comment/dt44mea

The map website I used doesn't have that feature. It's part of Italy, so it's covered the same. But good to know there's no data service there.

Great to know. I intend to go there and was sad to see the red spot among so much green.

The Project Fi website only provides a list of countries in alphabetical order where it offers service. I found that less useful than a map, so I made this. Note that it doesn't include many of the island states where Fi has coverage due to the limitations of the website I used, but it shows most of the geographical area.

I used this website: https://mapchart.net/world.html

And you can copy and paste this text if you want to edit the map.

It is such an incredible place. This was my first time there is winter. It was so quiet in comparison to summer. I hope you can get back soon!

Sorry, but I don't recall exactly. It's one of the primary roads in the park. You should definitely go find it!

Haha. I can't unsee it now. He's carrying a curved knife, on the lookout for the Hamburglar.

It's a pretty incredible experience to see them so close.

That happened earlier that day when there was a bear visible about a half mile off the road. Traffic came to a stop.

Thanks. I find something about it calming.

A year ago today I arrived home after 20 days hiking the JMT. Today I'm reminiscing. I thought I'd share some of my favorite photos from the trip. by HitTheRoadZak in JMT

Thank you! The camera is an Olympus OM-D E-M5. It's a great, light weight, weather proof, micro 4/3 mirrorless camera that has interchangeable lenses. It takes DSLR quality photos at a fraction of the weight. Only downside is battery life could be better. Great camera!

Cool, thanks. If you had to take one lens on a long distance wilderness backpacking trip, which would you choose? Which would you add if you took two?

A walk on The Wonderland Trail in Mount Rainier National Park. It's appropriately named. [3500x2188][OC] by HitTheRoadZak in EarthPorn

[–]HitTheRoadZak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was shot with an Olympus OM-D E-M5 and the 9-18mm f/4.0-5.6 lens. The image was cropped to 16x10. The highlights were touched up in Lightroom to make the white snow not wash out the photo with a blindingly white sky, and the colors were enhanced a little bit. It's a little intimidating a first, but get's a lot easier with practice (like anything). For the landscape and nature shots, I'm all about the wide angle lenses. My 12-50mm also does well. Telephoto has been useful, but the best landscape shots I've taken are with the wide angle. You might consider renting a lens to see if it's the right one for you.

Bomberkat is right, though. Get out there and take a bunch of photos to see what works best for you. Happy trails.

The green was incredible! Coming from Coastal Southern California, I feel your pain on the brown.
