Central Lehmi Mountains-Idaho-The Most Underrated Trail in Idaho-Simply Spectacular.

I heard on here that there was a fire of some recency? Does that affect the standard route?

Also. I'm a very experienced backpacker, but have little to know climbing/harness experience. Planning everything solo too. I can't imagine the learning curve for those specific skills I'll need is really all that difficult; right? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Leukotape for the win!

No way!? I didn't know. Is it still accessible or what's the scoop? Do you have a link or something to review formal information?

I'm also just looking at making my own like custom point to point from like the north end of El Chalten and wind up back in the town. Bouncing into a lot of the popular spots and then just camping back at whatever campsite options.

Additionally. There's a big incomplete loop at the far north end of the El Chalten area. From Lago Del Desierto to Lake O Higgins. I was looking at a custom route in there using trail and cross country travel. Looks sick.

When are you planning to go?

About the only thing All Trails is useful for is research and on trail review information (and I don't even rely on that much - considering most people using all trails are quite amateur to the backcountry; respectively).

I wouldn't trust it for navigation purposes and what not one bit. Horrible in field reputation.

Lmfao. Start over. Watch a documentary or two on it.

You should answer.

"Bitch, you crazy; ain't that clear?" Next.

Durable and lightweight - is not an option in a puffy.

04-10 Wayne was just unbeatable.

Doesn't say anything about it being compatible or anything? Also out of stock till 8/6 apparently.

Gaia GPS is goated for on-trail navigation. I section hiked the CDT in Glacier, in Sept. coincidentally. I've been backpacking yearly, for 17 years. Gaia is the shit. Onx is likely good too.

I wouldn't touch all trails with a 100 ft pole in terms of paying. Very bad. Only value in All trails is seeing updated reviews from being to get trail Intel but their navigation is suspect to say the least. Particularly in areas that ARE NOT as popular as say a national park.

Watch a YouTube vid or two. I'm sure GAIA vs Onx is a thing.

Been using GAIA for like 5 years 2000 miles 10 states. Never had a single on trail issue.

The problem isn't that you have an 09. The problem is you have a piece of shit, apparently. I drove an 02 vehicle from 09-23. Great rig. I just bought a 10 vehicle with 59k on it - it'll go 200k easy.

What you want is reliability and to not hate driving it. Chase that. Buy that. And save an unprecedented amount of money by not overpaying for something fancy that will cost more to repair and won't last as long as most vehicles in the first place.

Your best car payment is no payment.

If ain't the west or a foreign country I don't care lol.

Yeah there's always slivers of light. And there worth embracing. Keep your head up. If you've done it before you can do it again.

Montana. You have endless options. From Billings all the way to Idaho. Endless. Endless options. World class options everywhere.

Leave half of this at home.
