    This might be a dumb question, But with Allergies why don't hikers look for local honey? If you get honey that is real honey and local, You won't have the allergy problems. It has all the pollen's that you are reacting to. I think just a honey bear is around 8 bucks but in a few days you don't have any issues.

    • @stockbulll
      @stockbulll Місяць тому +5

      It's hard to get local honey from all the different areas a hiker would be hiking through along the entire trail. On top of that, it takes time for the pillen in the honey to affect the body. The hikers would be long gone from the area before the honey had any effect.

      @@stockbulll Actually local honey is pretty easy to find, Most feed stores have it. In ranch country pretty much every town has a feed store. It only takes about 2 days for the benefit of honey to kick in. Anyway here in the West it is easy to find.

    I love even in middle of nowhere USA you can usually find an Asian restaurant of some sort. How many shoes are you planning on going through on this hike? How much money do you have allocated for things like dining out and hotel rooms? Speaking of hotel rooms, you paid $100 one night and the next night they wanted to charged you $175 for the same room? You do need an umbrella.

      All I know is that when I was in my 20s, I only hiked the backcountry daily distances she often does a few times, and sometimes hurt myself doing it. I'm amazed she's pulling off those distances with that gear and that terrain. These days, I hike no more than 10-ish miles (if that), and I consider that a hike! It doesn't matter where, when, what I'm carrying, or whether it's overnight. I'm in my 60s tho'

    Every year about this time, when the weather is very hot and has been for quite a while, I sadly read about some kids swimming in some FL lake or pond and then later that night develop a head ache and the parents give them children's Tylenol to relieve the pain thinking its sun or heat exposure. But the head ache progresses and then the child starts to fade quickly often showing very weak vitals, with sluggish motor skills or even drifting in and out of consciousness.
    The parent then takes the child to the ER and they do tests looking for all sorts of possibilities.
    But they don't seem to add up swimming in very warm lake water with an amoeba infection. The amoeba have burst in the unusually warm fresh water and enter usually through the child's nose and eyes and migrate into the brain and begin attacking the brain often doing very serious or even fatal damage.
    So maybe ask yourself, is that lake water really unusually warm or even like bath water warm?
    It just might be experiencing an amoeba bloom and don't go swimming. If you do, watch for the symptoms and any signs of head ache, sluggishness, dizziness, blurred vision, or even fainting or loss of consciousness.
    There are probably a lot of other details I have left out. This is just what I remember hearing and reading about, tragically once or twice a Summer during the hottest weather.
