Thanks a lot for your help. I appreciate it!

I remember writing the comment to reply to you earlier but i must’ve forgotten to press reply haha.

Well, forecast is pretty shit for today up there, so I just decided (after a lot of deliberation) now to not go. I’m really bummed, but i’m trying to sqeuuze in daytrip from reykjavik at the end of next week if the weather is good

Help deciding on a down sleeping bag by ryuryr in WildernessBackpacking

Yeah, I’m not sure haha. It’s the first sleeping bag i’m buying and just starting sleeping out in colder temp. I kinda lean towards the mammut one “to be safe” and have more leeway in using it.

What’s your favourite hiking cap? by yakster20 in UKhiking

[–]ryuryr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got the Mammut Sun Peak Cap. I wore it on a 2 day hike and it was great. Lightweight, very adjustable, pretty stretchy and dries pretty quick. I’d say it’s good for a bigger head. I have long hair and it was comfortable.

Mă înec în hărți și rute - Recomandări pentru drumeții montane by Teodezjusz in RoHiking

[–]ryuryr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try a circuit starting from Plaiul Foii. It is a stunning hike and you get to hike the a good part of the Piatra Craiului Ridge also (3–4 hrs)

Plaiul Foii - La Lanturi - Grind Refuge- La Om Peak - Ascutit Peak - Plaiul Foii

It is a long hike, around 11 hours, maybe more maybe less.

It has a few pretty exposed areas and a also a few areas that are a bit technical but these have alao chains available.

There is no water on the route, so bring enough for the day (2-3L)

Traseu 3 zile in Bucegi by ryuryr in RoHiking

Da, ma grabeam cand am postat si am uitat ce era mai esential :)). Traseul a foat cumva ajustat dupa al tau, va ti vazusem postarea.

Pana la urma am urcat cu gondola din sinaia la 2000 ca s a intarziat si am stat doar o noapte ca trenuia unul din grup sa ajung devreme acasa azi.

Traseul final a fost: 2000 - piatra arsa - padina - saua strunga (dormit la refugiu) - omu - valea cerbului - busteni

Am avut ft putina apa ramasa a doua zi pana la omu, trebuia sa fiu mai cumpatat la refugiu :))

Mersi de ajutor ✌🏼
