Next week I'm off to hike where my heart used to be. I'm gonna visit the area in the mountains where our family used to hike when I was a kid. I haven't been there for almost 40 years. Just a pure nostalgia hike. No other goals than just be there again.

@mowsertas День назад

Sounds great! Have fun. I have done a few of those types of hikes. Heading off on a similar one again in a few days!

@JBereza 2 часа назад

Nice tips. I generaly prefer longer breaks during day. Sometimes campsites are spectacular and worth every second. Sometimes those are boring and/or crowded.

Starting cool or thinking 15 ahead is great. I learnt this a while back, and being A southern hiker it’s saves that annoying undress stop just out of camp. Also snacks on hand -top tip.

Yep, both sure do make a big difference!

You are right about walking through the mud and not around.

Yep. Much easier!

@harduphiker 2 дня назад

I've previously talked about what I call 'hike cold' on my channel, and I do the first tip too - lots of breaks, short breaks, one every hour. Really helps. You should always look back at your camp anyway, and scour that ground cos of Leave No Trace! The amount of tent pegs I've found.... When i did the West Highland Way then the Great Glen Way (170? miles) recently I did the pace yourself, I purposefully did it at 1-2 mph, slow and steady. A lot of the younger folks zoomed past me, but I caught up with them - and they frowned at me, cos they didn't hike late and tired themselves out as they stopped early ;-) Hike early and hike late, as they say...

@mowsertas День назад

Yep, very sage advice. Thanks for watching! I love the hike early and hike late strategy!

@Danielinthewild 3 дня назад

Great tips man! Couldn’t agree more. I like that you talked about long days over your footage from moss ridge. I did that walk 2 years ago and walked out from the campsite to the car park in one day. Not fun 😂

@mowsertas 2 дня назад

Have done the same before. Very long day, especially in bad weather!

@CanyonsCalling 4 дня назад

Agree completely about breaks. What I've observed about slower hikers is that generally their walking pace isn't especially slow, but they're really inefficient about breaks. They'll sit down to have a snack and then 10 minutes later stop to filter water. Great video!

@harduphiker 2 дня назад

Plow on through...yeah...that wouldn't have worked on my flooded Thames Path trip, unless you like swimming!

@mowsertas День назад

Have been in similar situation with flooding rivers. We were waist to chest deep all day with very little idea of where the track actually was below us!

@harduphiker День назад

@@mowsertas yeah that's why I bailed, I couldn't see where the path stopped and the river started, so high risk of stepping off!

Would your son have been at Windermere with his school group on Monday 24th? Terrible rain that night. They had a great snow ball fight that evening - we admired them from our heated position from the new hut. Great leader.

That may have been them! Hope they were well behaved. I’m looking forward to being back out there shortly!

Mowser, I have a question for you. I did the Overland Track in Nov last year and will do again in Nov this year, but properly. I need to buy a pair of walking boots, shoes..etc. I don't do any of the bush bashing like I have seen you do. I also notice on many of my walks in the Blue Mountains and in Tas that the track are in pretty go condition. Which boots..etc, do you recommend? My pack will weigh 15ks, I am 72ks and am 179cms tall. Thanks.

@mowsertas 8 часов назад

I did a video on footwear a while ago: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CIGA0lBcBMY.htmlsi=sryhIhfTQGn4xedl I generally don't like recommending specific brands of footwear as each person's foot and fit is so unique. Having said that I recently moved from Scarpas (using them for over 20years) to Lowa boots and absolutely love them. They have a very good range of types also. I also have a lighter pair of La Sportiva Ultra Raptor boots that are more for day walks and they are super comfortable and more of a cross over between a walking shoe and a boot. I highly recommend visiting some outdoor stores with a wide range of footwear and trying plenty of pairs on. A lot of stores will let you purchase and take them home and if you only wear them around inside the house you can generally exchange for a different size, pair etc so ensure that this is an option when you purchase. While I prefer a leather boot, the synethic boots these days are very comfortable and much easier to break in and better suited to walking on good track, so i'd probably opt for a synthetic option if you are not bush bashing or doing anything too crazy. Also try some walking shoes and see how they feel compared to boots. I also normally prefer to get walking shoes and boots with Vibram soles as I have always found them to have the best traction and grip. This is the only pitfall of the La Sportivas. Hope this helps!
