        Awesome. Did you do it? I once tried, but we had to abort because of a snowstorm.

          Had a lovely day in the magnificent North German countryside. I went for a somewhat longer solo hike - starting from old Schleswig, passing Hedeby (an important trading hub during the Viking Age), and heading through the Hüttener Berge Nature Park back to the cottage.

            I was also quite impressed with my new light hiking/trail running shoes. Despite the fairly long distance, I had absolutely no issues—no pressure points or blisters, and it was only the second day I’d worn them. I wore merino toe socks; they were perfect.

              @68degreesorless Pure awesomeness right there! I’ve heard that it’s fairly windy in that area? Thanks for sharing.

                  @endo no, just hiked to Refugio like you. I would try it but my wife has no interest. Crazy you had clear day like that and then snowstorm. That’s the mountains for you.
