  1. RE: mastodon.social/@InkySchwartz/

    Quando Matt Rutherford salpò da Aasiaat, in Groenlandia, il 25 giugno, intraprese un viaggio che nessun marinaio ha mai completato: una circumnavigazione in solitaria, senza scalo e senza assistenza dell'Oceano Artico. Ma questa impresa sarà possibile solo grazie a qualcosa che è andato perduto. Ghiaccio marino artico.

  31. The Morrowind Circumnavigation Challenge, for those of you who want to try yourself:
    You have to go all the way around Vvardenfell. You start when you leave the census office for the first time, and end when you enter again.
    You have to go all the way around, but the direction does not matter. You can go North or South, that's your choice.

  32. Francis Drake’s circumnavigation
    Francis Drake set off from Plymouth on 13 December 1577 in the 'Pelican', later renamed the 'Golden Hind'. After three years, he returned with a large bounty of gold, silver, pearls, and precious stones, becoming the first Englishman to circumnavigate the globe. #FrancisDrake #Pelican #GoldenHind #1577 #Circumnavigation #Englishman #Globe #Gold #Silver #Pearls #PreciousStones

  33. The #bayarea #ridgetrail is an underrated and often overlooked route covering hundreds of miles of terrain around the #sanfrancisco bay. Once complete it’ll allow for a full and uninterrupted #circumnavigation, in a total of ~550 miles.

    Here is a short interview about why it means so much to me, and why I want to #run it …
