I would be very surprised if the app is estimating correctly. Seems WAY too high.
fitness apps are very flawed. They are based off formulas that only appear to be individualized if you are able to enter your weight and other factors. I wonder if you did that same exact trip but...
This is similar to what I was taught in the Army Master Fitness Trainer School. However, the caloric/energy difference per mile needed isn't really sex dependent. Note they change the "weight" of the...
no it's not :-?
Several of the highest peaks in the east are road accessible - Mt Washington (Nh's highest), Mt Greylock (MA highest), and several down south that I can't remember.
But there is a huge difference...
And here's what I posted in regards to eggs:
The food starts out HEAVIER than the sum of the nutritional content due to water.
For example: a medium egg weighs about 1.75 ounces or about 50...
I wanted to add this as I recently had someone question me about how many calories per ounce of WEIGHT I was claiming in my freeze dried meals. I know the calories go nowhere so how to explain...
I make a lot of stews, chilis, etc. Fajitas, pulled pork, cassoulet, creamy chicken. some people do biscuits with gravy etc...
you can't dehydrate ice cream but you can freeze dry it!

hike in beautiful places: NM, AZ, UT, MT, WY, ID are on the itinerary right now!
and this is why I NEVER hike in the Whites without being prepared to spend a very cold and snowy night. AND. I don't even backpack in the winter!
solar isn't going to work. get a "fast" wall charger and a good battery bank.
I use cord locks on my laces. I put the cord lock on and tie a knot in the laces. I leave the laces long for a few days to make sure I have enough length to easily remove my shoes. When I am...
I hike with thin merino gloves but I just bought a pair of goretex "overmitts" from REI when they were on sale. Not too thick really just a water proof layer to keep my hands and gloves dry when...
My niece's school district (she's a teacher) has been closed all week because of the flooding. Crazy
I almost always hike in shorts, though I am not one to be out in true winter. I like shorts with deep pockets and no liner. I'm a woman for anyone who doesn't know. I usually wear a synthetic tshirt...
I make all my own backpacking meals in my freeze dryer. See the link in my signature.
No freeze dryer is only a few hundred dollars.
Harvest Right has been around about 14 years and yes, they...
Why would you take up space in a bear box or on a cable?
diabetes, heart disease and cancers were virtually unheard of in 1900. it's the crap food in the standard american diet that causes these diseases to a very large part
the life expectancy was NOT 47 in 1900.
46% of people died before the age of 5. Women had a 10% chance of dying in child birth. But if someone lived past 20 they were as likely to live to 75 as...

Medical errors cause an estimated 250,000 deaths in the United States annually.
I just went on the USFS website and it does not say what this sign seems to be saying. See for yourself.

really? When did this happen? do you have a link? I don't doubt you but I want more info. Thanks
I've never had a doctor who was "in shape" and active in any pursuits. They also have about ZERO nutritional training and they certainly don't keep up with the latest studies about nutrition. As a...
