Neither Gaby nor I sleep well. Always excited/nervous about first hike of the year.

Sentiers des Crêtes Parc du Mont Orford / Sentiers de l'Estrie

WEIGHT OF PACSAC : 17 lbs including 3½ liters of water.. just right
WEATHER : 14-20 c with just a little sprinkle as we start and alot of fog in the morning but it clears up for the route back.
DENIVELATION up 550 m / down 100 m / up 125 m / down 50 m / up 130 m / Then the same route back (something like that)
TOTAL LENGTH 18 km

2018: Start 8h00 AM finish 5 PM including 3 breaks.. 20 mins / 10 mins / 10 mins. ( 9 hours total)
no aches nore pains doing the hike.. knees, quads, shoulder ALL go well!

2014 : start 9h58 AM / end Late because of bad right knee at the end 7h30 PM ( 9½ hours total)
2009 : start 9h18 AM / end at 4h48 PM ( 8 hours 10 mins total )
2008 : start 9h20 AM / end at 5h00 PM ( 7 hours 40 mins total )

What we don't know.. is how much the trail route has changed since 2008.. we've heard rumors but haven't checked the facts.

2018

2018 : We are slow.. compared to 2009..
Banner (Gaby's comment) : things change.. from the cairns to the signs bolted in the rock.. I also notice the width of the path and our speed.
2008
2009 Gaby falls and breaks his hiking stick. I fall and hurt myself all over. maybe we were going too fast?

Try doing it barefoot, I don't like not having my metatarsal pad for my left foot./ starts off well, I can bend more since I don't have about 1'' shoes under me, but our new mats are too soft for balance. Also, I think that I didn't eat well and only really do to about #5, try to stick with it 'til #9 but I stop. I think it's better that I rest when I need it so bad. I've been giving it my all since last Sunday's hike.. and I think I over did it. /I'll try to keep Cardio Militaire on Mondays, not before Yoga, or change my yoga days.

SATURDAY, June 30th 2018
20mins drive to Trail Head.

WHITEFACE, NH. WHITE MOUNTAINS 47 / 48, NE103 / 115
With Gabriel , Downes Brook Trail up and down.
HIKING start 7h00 am Finish at 3h35 pm (20 mins lunch) (8h35 mins total)
18 km very regular grade all the way, mostly in the shade 'til the top,
TEMP : 22°C -> 28°C— cloudy am then sunny / always humid and lots of mosquitos and orther bugs
water 3 liters /

We didn't meet a single hiker on the Downes Brook Trail all day, and it was clearly not well travelled. Had sort of an ADKish feeling. At the holstel there was a guy meeting others to come from the other side, as was a couple on top.

2 x 10 river crossings! I'm glad we decided NOT to do it last week when there were 3 days of heavy rain.. the trail rocks would have been even more slippery and the river crossing would have been undoable, and even today, just one storm would have changed the game completely, since alot of streams go into the Downes Brook.

Goes quite well. / is yesterday's Yoga so much harder? or maybe I should do a jogging WU before the yoga.? or maybe it's the ADVIL I took this morning? / Enjoy the abs.. 3 times 45-60 secs V-Us in the main course and then two sets of 3½ mins abs at the end.Still have trouble with my burpees.. I feel my belly is too fat :(

PLANNING :

POST ON FB P90X PAGE

Finishing week 8 of P90X. I plan to do weeks 9-12 as much as I can in between mountain hiking during our 4 week vacation, and then do weeks 9-12 again to make sure I really get the most out of it. / Last time I did the complete program was 2009. Snce then I've used the DVDs sporadically as off-program WOs to complement the rest of what I do. / Congrats to all who are starting, it's a great decision ! :)

HUNTER MOUNTAIN, CATSKILLS, NY , NE104 / 115
With Gabriel , very regular steep grade,
HIKING start 7h05 am Finish at 12h15 pm (20 mins lunch) (8h35 mins total)
SHORT km very regular grade all the way, mostly in the shade 'til the top,
TEMP : 12°C -> 18°C— sunny but shaded /

MAP : We chose a short but steep route.. with blue (B) trail markers all the way up and then have a little trouble finding the yellow trail down . It's like a GAP on the map It only had a yellow stick to mark it's beginning and a guy who "knows" the trail said it went to a "pipe spring" It did, but it is also the right path we were looking for.

ABOVE : tentsite # 14 was smaller than we thought and very close to the road. Behind the site was a little ravine and a trail to the stream. I didn't want to camp close to the stream in case there were mosquitos, but there weren't any. +

RIGHT: Live edges are very popular in design these days.. is this a Live Edge pic-nic table? LOL
