    Which apps for family to track me

    I call my wife every night using WhatsApp. I also send a position report through WhatsApp to a group text. WhatsApp is used a lot on the Camino. It costs nothing and you'll probably want the app anyway. Today is day 30 on the Camino and it has worked since day 2. Greg.

    Looking for 'friends of Bill' on Camino in April 2024

    I'll be starting my camino, from SJPDP, on April 21st. So, you'll be a couple of weeks ahead of me. If you come across any meetings, shoot me a PM. Have fun and Buen Camino. Greg

    Hiking shoes recommendations

    Thanks to everyone who took their time to help me out. Last night I bought a pair of Moab 3 boots. It's a little after 0600, here in Oregon. I'm lacing them up and heading out to hike "The Trail of Ten Falls" in Silver Falls State Park. If, for some reason, these don't work out...

    Hiking shoes recommendations

    I guess I need to be more careful when using common (to me) metaphors. "Bulletproof" is used as a term for extremely rugged items. Sorry for the confusion. Greg

    Hiking shoes recommendations

    Hi all, I am looking for a recommendation for a good hiking shoe, or low boot. With all the miles hiked by this group, I figured I could get some good advice. I'm not really interested in trail runners. I have worn the same brand, and model, boots for many years. But, the quality has...

    CPAP recommendation

    Good suggestions, The air mini is the one I was looking at. Unfortunately, my insurance won't cover any of the cost. I'll load everything up and check the weight. I have plenty of opportunities to go on longer (10+ miles) hikes. Really glad to hear I don't need a battery. Thanks

    CPAP recommendation

    Thanks for the recommendation on the refurbished machines. I'll check them out. I agree with using a machine. My apnea is severe enough that I wouldn't consider doing without. Just wondering if it's worth the $ to get a travel machine, instead of taking the one I have.

    CPAP recommendation

    Hi all, I did a quick search and didn't find exactly what I had a question about. Sorry if I missed it. I need to use a CPAP machine. Buying a travel machine would be a pretty big cost for me. And, I don't really need one, other than for this trip. My pack is a 48l Osprey, so I am not...

    Mid- April, still not sure of route.

    Hi all.. Greg here, I have April 15th through may 25th (2024) set aside for my Camino. This is my first Camino, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to swing another. If a second one happens, it will be quite a few years down the road. I'm planning on the Frances. But, open to other...
