FYI, Jenna, they drawn down the level of Lake Fontana in the Winter, and then it will fill up as Spring turns to Summer. It looks that low every year (I live nearby). Thanks for bringing us along on your journey.

[@tiffanyreinertsen1970]

I use LMNT and I usually add a straw to 1 liter and the pour some into my collapsible bottle and it's perfect. And Watermelon and Raspberry are my two faves. Hope you continue to like it as I do (also not sponsored lol)

[@suehinze1566]

Looks like decent weather right now. How many miles have you done so far? The Fontana Hilton looks very nice. I looked away when you showed the dam, lol. Thanks for bringing us along. Stay safe, make sure you're staying hydrated and Keep on Keeping on. You're out there and doing great! ✌️🫶 Wow, that sunrise was beautiful and worth getting there to see it. Oh and glad you went and had your feet looked at and can do things to make them better.

[@williamlepse7077]

Haven't tried LMNT since I was afraid the salt levels were too high, but maybe I will give it a shot in the summer when I am really sweating hard. But love your attitude...glad you are making this hike what you want and not worried about staying with other people. Do what you want so you have no regrets later. Most never get the opportunity to do this even once, so make the most of your adventure.

[@BaltistaniBoys]

Absolutely amazing nice sounds. I recommend you visit the himalayan mountains k2 and Nangaparbat view point from one place. Whenever you start a short solo trip of 4-5 days, Moses Peak is a must. It is a 5300m height۔ from the top of moses pea which you can see the views of the K2 world second highest peak in the world, Nangaparbat, K6 k11 and K 12 views in one frame. best time from May to October. This is a family tracked.its open Zone, one did not need a trekking permit or have to pay Royalty fee to climbed this Mountain tower
