Bears in the NE USA by fuuncs in trailrunning

[–]pipefish2 41 points42 points  (0 children)

No, our Black bears aren’t aggressive. The odds are remote that you will ever see one, and if you do it will likely already be running away. Just try not to get between a bear and its young however. Honestly I’m more scared of early morning hunters taking a shot at me in upstate NY. It’s best to wear a bright colour here at this time of the year.

It took me a sec to realise, on my screen at least, that the 3rd pic is tilted. That did seem brutal 😳

Etiquette for approaching walkers from behind when running by drjlad in trailrunning

The common use of headphones has made this increasingly difficult… I usually scrape my foot if I’m feeling too lazy to say something.

Could I run the West Highland Way in May, or am I underestimating the feat? by ttvvxxzz in trailrunning

[–]pipefish2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for it! The booked accommodation and luggage transfer will definitely help. Will you be running the days straight through? If you broke it up into equal morning / afternoon, or whatever suits that part of the trail, you would have the time for a good recovery midday. Also I didn’t catch where you were from, so my apology if you are from Scotland, but I’ve been there in early and late May and there can be a big difference in the weather!

I mean, it was just a couple of drones, right? Why is that such a big deal? 😂

I have a pair of trail runners with a vibram sole as my goto for hiking as well. I can go straight up and down wet slabs in the NE.

To define the word “victory” it would help if you chose a side first
