    Ask About Gaia GPS!

    If you're looking to upload routes, then upper right side on my laptop it has a drop down at my name. Upload feature is there. I only remember because I did it a couple days ago... LOL

    Ask About Gaia GPS!

    Personally, I picked up a Garmin Glo2 receiver and love it. It better that the onboard receiver in 'my' phone is connected in areas my phone is not. I don't feel just under $100 is too much for the unit. MHO as always

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    The mortality rate, as all are, are based upon only those 'known' infected. This morning's numbers (I deal with US only) show 46,168 known cases and 582 died. That's a 1.26% mortality rate. As I have said (probably here as well), we're not getting accurate information. What I'm saying is, with...

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    Read yesterday about two states about to use their state parks as quarantine areas. That hit me strange since they closed them so 'we' wouldn't use them for that... All those stated reasons for 'us' not being there, is now, suddenly, gone...

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    Which is exactly the same with 'any' virus. We (well some anyway) are forgetting this. Use of common sense hygiene during 'any' breakout is important. Then getting 'proper' reporting of the situation. Breathe folks and dawn your gloves. Plastic trash bags, plastic wrap, cloth or leather gloves...

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    Not even to hit that sort of number World-Wide my friend. Many will contract Covid-19, but unless you fit the criteria, it's less than many others viruses that go around. Please remember, there is no cure/vaccine for many viruses that go around each year (or past years). It's typically the 'herd...

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    Millions could die from this? Where did you get that from?? Breathe my friend!!! It's all going to be fine!! I am tracking numbers in the US. That was is most important to me (selfish, ya). We're tracking a 1.3% mortality rate with the new testing numbers starting to show. Remember this number...

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    Laurits, I respect your age and your knowledge! I find myself concerned about how you're looking at this as being any different than any new 'flu'? I'm only 6yrs behind ya and I'm already on a limited exposure, stay clean and distancing stance so I can get to where you are. I'm pretty healthy...

    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    My first venture out is end of May. Really the only distance run we plan this year, then mostly in our own region. I really don't see us changing any plans as of now. As my daughter says (I overheard her); "Do worry about my parents! They've be social distancing for 20yrs now." As funny as it...

    US East Central New Hampshire Rigs and Brew

    Ah.. I may have worked through it.. I found another I used to run that should be (typically is) gated right now and it doesn't state closed. I will say, nice score on this map! I hadn't seen it before. I use the MVUM on Gaia for NF's, this may be better updated.

    US East Central New Hampshire Rigs and Brew

    Is this site current conditions? I checked two trails I used to run (years back) and states closed. It would be right now... curious..

    US East Central New Hampshire Rigs and Brew

    I still say this is 'way' over blown, yet probably the best is to postpone for now. We still can do some scouting, planning and talk about possible runs online here or set up a side conversation in the meantime.

    Ask About Gaia GPS!

    Update! Gaia responded today and BRMB had been updated with new tracks/trails and the legion had not. All is in process now. This track (I questioned) is the TCT (trans Canada trail).

    Ask About Gaia GPS!

    Question for ya'll. I'm looking into yet another area in Canada and using Backroads Mapbooks layer. What is this dotted red route? On a MVUM that would be an unmaintained jeep trail.

    Home built overland trailer in progress.

    I did that on mine, PMF that is.. The cheap canvas, well looks like cheap canvas when done. Using a good cloth (duck is really nice) and using a quality paint (so it will last) prices out right about the same as 'glassing. I will 'glass next time. Did a cost comparison on TNTT with another that...

    I am planning a trip from Michigan to Seattle along i90, Tips?

    I ran Boston to Bozeman and got 35hrs, the run through Canada came out as 38hrs. Not all that much more time. My plan in the UP is at least two nights in the NF and run the forest roads across. I could lose 2-3 days easy there. Another is now showing me how much there is on the Canadian side...

    LiFe PO4 Batteries

    Follow my link above and that's a good start for a supplier. Be careful with Aliexpress or Alibaba until someone recommends the specific supplier. Far too many are following the marketing and spending far too much. Then again, if you can afford and feel better buying from those.. do so.
