@pineapplelover the Pelmo mount is off limits until further notice, unfortunately. It has been experiencing daily collapses due to the heatwave, so it has been forbidden to hike it. Hopefully I can try again in September.
@Chrissy@hiking that's what we did: dehydrated food for dinner and breakfast. Not very heavy and perfect to eat on the trail.
We'll buy lunch at the shops, that's easier to manage and we usually eat light when hiking.
So excited for you, I'm sure it will be amazing!
@Chrissy@hiking we could have avoided it, tbh. All the cabins have shops and we could have bought everything there, but last year everything was really expensive and in order to eat properly we had to buy a lot. So this year we are trying a different approach and see how it goes. The pro side is that the backpack will become extremely light towards the end!
When are you leaving for Norway?
@OwOarchist I often switch backpacks according to what I have to do: daily hikes, ferrate, trekking. Most of the stuff can't stay on the same backpack, and what I like about Lighterpack is that I can weight everything and be sure I don't bring too much with me. I could do it on paper but it would take much longer.
@alex@hiking@outdoor lighterpack can memorise your gear and once you have it stored in the website you can create your backpack easily without starting from scratch every time. You can divide it into different categories and flag items as wore and as food, so it knows if something will be eaten or if it doesn't have to count it as inside the backpack. I really like it, it's very simple but effective.
@Fredselfish you're very welcome! If you happen to be in the area, I strongly suggest this trail. It's usually less crowded and it has an astonishing view. Yesterday we met only a couple of people, while the other trail towards the Averau was packed.
@seindal@photography@lemmy.world@photography@fedigroups.social I would love to focus on nature and mountains, which are my main interest. I'd love to stop by in Venice, it's really close to home and if I happen to go there I'll send you a message! I see you also organise tours of the city, I will forward my customers to you 😊

@Chrissy @hiking I was honesty worried because I thought we bought too much food, but in the end we managed to put everything inside 💪
@bergmeister @hiking definitely! I can't wait to be there 💪
@CA_Hawthorne @hikingdude @hiking gladly! If you happen to be in the area 😊 But let me hike it first so I don't get lost 😆
@hikingdude @hiking the Pelmo trail is an amazing one, I can't wait to finally hike it!
@ysb33r @hiking thank you! I'll take a look at it as soon as possible!

@alex @hiking @outdoor I didn't know about this website, thank you so much! I will check them 😊

@Fredselfish northern Italy, the Dolomites are located in north-east

@Fredselfish this is on trail 441 on the Dolomites, from La Mierla location in Andraz towards Averau mountain hut.
@asudox these were taken with my Fairphone 6 camera. I also have taken others with a Panasonic Lumix TZ99 but I still have to download them.
@vatlark she is beautiful indeed ❤️

@ZkhqrD5o oooh I didn't think about that. Thank you again!
@ZkhqrD5o thank you, this is an amazing advice as well. I'll start finding some books and experiment with my camera on a daily basis
@richard @photography@lemmy.world @photography@fedigroups.social thank you! I'll look for that as well 😊
