Brian's Hiking and Backpacking Blog: Measuring Your Distance Using Strides
www.briangreen.net via @EQUIPnTRIP &bull Aug 2, 2010A useful way to estimate the distance you've walked or hiked for any given period of time is by counting the number of strides you've taken.

Brian's Hiking and Backpacking Blog: Small Pens for Backpacking
www.briangreen.net via @bfgreen &bull Jul 26, 2010I like to take notes and keep a trail journal while I'm hiking, so having a reliable pen or small pencil handy is a must for me. For the longest time I've carried a standard #2 pencil cut down to size so that it fits along the spine of my Rite in the Rain notebook, with the help of a little yellow duct tape. Recently I've started looking at options for carrying a small ballpoint or gel/roller pen instead of my small pencil. I prefer the feel of writing with a pen than with a pencil and with the advancements… Full Story »
