    I would have chosen the trails through the mountains as well. 👍

    You are so calm for someone so close to bears 🙈 that scenery was STUNNING!

      lol. There was a grouse in the bushes five minutes later and it scared the 💩 out of me because I thought it was another bear.

      Gave up and called a friend who I’d meet in New Mexico who happened to be in town with a car. That was one of the longer waits.

    Great video, good to see a porcupine, and have an answer to the question "How far do you walk in a day" (40 km on some days)!

    • @uptothehills2053
      @uptothehills2053  24 дні тому

      a tough day with lots of elevation, low 30’s. A day with easier terrain 50kms. But on average high 30’s to low 40’s.

    I liken the mozzies landing on me to a Boeing 747 touching down😂 although the cattle flies further north around Lima almost brought me to tears as I couldn’t ride fast enough to stop them biting. keep that bear spray close👍🏻 Happy Trails. BTW, do you want some more sunnies ? I’m happy to give you some $ for a new pair😅 cheers, Tim.

      Thankfully, I think the sobos got the biting flies. So far they haven’t been to bad 🤞🏼
      lol, you made me laugh as I also have a hole in my shorts that I keep stitching up, but you can’t see that on a video thankfully 😂. So, compared to that I forget that my sunnies are scratched up. I did add my PayPal in the about section, but feel free to just enjoy the videos and the journey no contribution required.

      Garmin mini 2. It is what most people have on trail although I’ve heard that the Zoleo is becoming popular.
