    Juliana Trail, Slovenia

    Research "Jakobova Pot", you should find everything you need. I planned to walk it this year, but changed plans when I read about Bears in Slovania. Im sure its rare, but enough to turn me off, of course the pandemic also helped change all my plans for 2021.

    At Enlightened Equipment, you can order your custom fill, size and color. The 850 fill, at 50° Temp is perfect over all, at 12.44 Oz. I use it as a quilt.

    Hello From California!

    In California too, I used a "0" birthday as my rational in 2015, my first Camino CF, and I haven't stopped. I too booked my flight for Sep. My flight is to Lisbon, with a layover in Madrid, I will decide later where to get off, when I find out where I will be walking. I have my fingers crossed....

    Trail Runners I'm Looking at

    Most running shoes are designed to last between 300 and 500 miles, that’s if you are running. I assume it’s safe to assume it should last 500 miles of walking.
