      @mclaincausey that thing is awesome and I’m with you…love Big Agnes tents. I have a 2-person of theirs that I use for solo trips and it’s fantastic. They’re thoughtful in their design and use great materials. Need an update when you hit the trail with it. And if your family is anything like ours, you’ll be the one stuck on the side with the dog.

      Edit. My 2 person is a Fly Creek

        @SKT 🤣 I love that they do more clipping and less sliding of poles through sleeves. They kick ass. Will update for sure!

        Think it, be it.

          @endo asked me, if I had done the GR221 route on the island of Mallorca (Spain).
          Done stage seven and eight in spring years ago and it was beautiful looking down from around 1000m directly to sea level.

          At this time of the year we prefer half day hikes.

          Great hike, even when the temperatures are high.

              Did it with 3 friends in 2016 (Port d'Andratx - Soler) and 2017 (Sojer - Pollenca). Beautiful hike.

                I used to love big Agnes tents but then I had a pole break and they basically told me to fix it myself. Nemo is my favorite brand now.

                        Throughout the week we hiked Wilde Wiese which can be translated into ‘Wild flowers meadow’. We took the thin line seen in the middle and rested in the meadow on our way back.

                        It’s a one hour drive from my home and it’s one of the last ski areas around, who is trying to survive without making artificial snow.

                        My son used my my beloved Hilleberg GT3 for the second time. Organized a save place, because there was the hunting season around.

                          Hiking in the southernmost tip of Norway, wearing the 247-IND and the 101J, on and off.

                              Me and my boys (15 and 21 yo) had a great mountain tour and summited Germany‘s highest peak (Zugspitze, 2962 m or 9718 ft) for the third time, each time over a different route.

                              This time we had a pretty steep ascent to Wiener Neustädter Hütte (2209 m) and the next morning via the Stopselzieher, an easy but beautiful via ferrata, to the summit.

                              It was a great joy, especially for me as a father to see how strong and sure-footed my boys have gotten.

                                      Heading to Acadia national park in a few weeks. Anyone got any recommendations for trails or interesting stuff in the park? We hike between 10-20 miles in a day but we are skipping camping this trip to have a bit more comfort the whole week.

                                          A long-held wish of mine has come true: my 15-year-old son and I hiked the Mainzer Höhenweg, a challenging high-alpine trail with climbing sections and an overnight stay in a bivouac box.

                                          Day 1

                                          Ascent in the rain to Rüsselsheimer Hütte (elevation 2323 m) and some well deserved Kaiserschmarren and Capricorn goulash.

                                            Very long (7.5 hrs) and exhausting ascent to a ridge of 3000s with a glacier crossing (well, the pittyful rest of it), climbing passages and exposure. Finally reaching the bivouac at 3252 m.
