      Totally agree. I check my bag because I check my poles. They are MY poles! They've been with me through many hikes including Machu Picchu. I like their grips and can adjust them within seconds. I don't need to buy a pair and then hope that at the...

      That's was my first reaction too - that a 15min delay caused a missed flight. Guess it depends on whether the flights were all on one ticket - this would then be up to the airline to rectify or if you booked individual legs yourself. We did...

      The challenge being that most of the Camino is on roads or paths that are multipurpose unlike, I expect, the PCT. Where there are bits between villages that are not multipurpose, setting up checkpoints would just incentivize pilgrims without...

      My friend almost accidentally 'stole' a fellow pilgrim's poles. She had not brought any but was feeling the lack. The hospitalera assured us she could choose from those in the umbrella stand by the door: 'they've all been there since last year.'...

      Maybe we could have threads to say ‘don’t stay in private rooms’, or ‘don’t eat in restaurants’ or ‘don’t walk in expensive walking shoes’ or ‘don’t use apps’, or ‘or don’t wear earphones’. Maybe a league ‘table of hardships’ and we can all...

      I think about the origins of the walk. I mean, do you think Kings, merchants, and peasants shared the same experience about carrying their weight on the their back? My guess is heck no. It's ALL good. Just don't try to race me if you are...
