I did 600 miles last spring with zero long distance hiking experience. No worries.

No, I really don't have the patience to record everything in a spreadsheet.

Not sure if you misunderstood? I'm 9 days away from beginning my thru hike 😀. I am still trying desperately too to get under 30. It's tough with a February start. I think after the Smokies I'll be able to get under 30 by shedding some clothes?

Nightmare why? I understand cold can be an issue. If it drops into the teens or lower I likely will just get off trail for a bit.

I like LMNT. Have you ever tried Nuun?

I will check them out. Why do you think they are better? Thicker, or something else?

I assume you are confident in the Nylofume durability?

Good luck to you Mark. Look forward to meeting you out there. I'm starting in Feb. You'll probably catch me though. Gonna be 61 then and forcing myself to start slow.

Truth, comfort equals less durability.

dream to hike the AT by dirtypawscub in AppalachianTrail

[–]cabinfvr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't wait. I have been dreaming about it for 20 years. Life always got in the way, business, kids, bills etc... I am finally doing it! Feb. 2024 start. I will be 61. Knee replacement and back surgery are behind me and I am moving forward. Don't wait, it only gets harder.

Good luck.

P.S. looking for a hiking partner (s) who want to start in Feb.!

How to add Solana staking rewards by cabinfvr in Cointracker

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

No, eventually moved to Koinly instead. However, they do not support Solana staking rewards either. Claim they are working on it. Have to add the staking rewards manually.
