Somewhere north of 12 miles in Chiricahua national monument, full pack 40 pounds.

Just going for a walk, no pack, I took a wrong turn on country roads and ended up doing like 15.

34 miles. Water source to water source. Arizona is cool.

Ok cool. How do you prevent blisters? I haven't found a reliable way yet.

I need new boots, I know this. My current pair is a full size too small.

That being said, even my sneakers, which are sized correctly, tend to cause a painful rubbing on my little toe.

I either need a wider shoe or find a way to counteract the underide I am experiencing. I'm guessing fabric tape, as it has worked before, is the ticket.

Long distance walking is the tits. :D

18.4 miles, about 2900 ft elevation gain.

Oh eh gads elevation is killer.

Slough Creek trail in Yellowstone, any decent hill and I would have to stop to take a breather.

Some of the prettiest country imaginable.

6,250 ft http://www.trailguidesyellowstone.com/yellowstone_hikes/slough_creek_trail_yellowstone.php

There is a huge hill near the first patrol cabin and the grounds surrounding it are littered, LITTERED, with bison bones. So incredibly cool.
