#Canada #Backcountry types: what’s you go-to navigation option for backcountry/FSR navigation?
Currently I’m using Avenza with purchased BC Backroads Mapbooks maps installed and it works pretty well, although the maps aren’t stitched together and so I often find myself having to switch from one map to the next, on the fly. I see Backroads has their own app now, which looks promising but it’s subscription-based, which I hate.

Camp Muir, Rainier National Park. 8 mi, 4,640 ft (again). #PNW #hiking #backcountry #skiing
The 2024 trip was in late July. Went in late May this time for more snow coverage.
We were able to skin pretty much the whole way up except for the first 0.3 miles, over Panorama Point, and across Pebble Creek. Skied pretty much the same amount down.
Conditions were considerably better this time. There was even a tiny bit of fresh snow that had been falling during the ascent!

does anyone know of any light, 4 season, 1 person tents for tall lanky bastards? ideally <2kg.
i've been lugging a 2 person macpac up the hills, i can sleep in it diagonally... which aside from the weight has been _ok_. but the plastic is disintegrating
event better: anyone know a fix for when tents plastic starts getting sticky? i think the waterproofing is failing.

Been out skiing (cross country) with my gang and had a blast. We went to Gyllbergen and slept two nights outdoors. Well, most slept in one of the cabins but I opted for my hammock. Good times!
But now everything hurts. Slept ten hours straight. 😅

Got out into the alpine today, explored a new zone on Snoqualmie Pass I had never been. The mountain access starts at a low elevation, we approached from 2500ft/762m topping out around 4500ft/1372m. My partner was feeling confident riding down a line we frankly didn't belong, I was feeling a little weak in the confidence & left knee. We descended the fall line in the 3rd picture shown here. Warm temps opened the snowpack, making it soft, mushy, hard to ride and easy to sink in deep. We eventually acknowledged we were in over our heads, pulled the plug to climb out through steep trees. Attempting to get in position to transfer from ride mode to climb mode on the splitboard... my step caved in, I sunk up to my chest in a sinkhole between a downed tree. Stress kicked in, not just from the present moment but these present times, wtf is going on world! Negative thoughts looped my mind. Thoughts of an injury causing a rescue did not settle well, nobody would come get us where we were. I felt my mortality more ever clear. My rule in the mountains is to keep it cool, you need a clear head to get you through. Mountains are my place to learn, reflect on life and feel alive.
Our handy gps maps & determined legs carried us to safety. All is well. Today fully kicked my ass. Good reminder when to listen to your own instincts. The older I get the more you realize prevention is truly key. I can make solid decisions, speak up when I need to but will follow people I trust to places we sometimes should avoid. Patience carefully got us through. The Cascade mountains around Snoqualmie Pass in Washington are no joke to mess with. Some of the spookier mountains Ive explored, a lot of water drains from the steep mountain peaks around and the low elevations, warm temps & deep snowpacks keep the conditions always changing. Live to learn. Mistakes will happen but we are stronger together.

Checked off three more #Idaho #backcountry airstrips on my current #XPlane #flightsim mission. Only two to go, way south on the Nevada border.
Ended my day at Thomas Creek airstrip (2U8). I was expecting an actual airstrip, but instead it is just a flat meadow with a couple of wind socks.
Runways were listed as 3/21, so I landed RWY 3 on what I assumed might be the runway. No squirrels were harmed as I mowed the grass.

This was a fantastic headline to kick off the week:
"Nobel committee unable to reach prize winner who is ‘living his best life’ hiking off grid
Fred Ramsdell was among those honoured with a 2025 Nobel Prize in Medicine but might not know because he is somewhere in Idaho and uncontactable"
