Traveling in Northern Idaho Wilderness. Scotchman Peak Challenge (4000 ft gain in 4 miles).

By: @nerdy.alex

Idaho is considered to be one of the highest density wilderness states of the continental US. There are plenty of camping, hiking, climbing, fishing, and hunting spots there. Going up Scotchman Peak is an intense hike. I did it as a preparation for Mt. Adams climb (see my previous post on that climb). Scotchman Peak is only about a 4-mile one way trip which may not seem like much, but the elevation gain is around 4000ft. So at about 1000 vertical feet per mile- this hike is intense even for experienced hikers (depending on the speed you do it at of course). At the same time it is doable for an average person as well especially if it is done over 2 days instead of one (we did spend a night there and camped out).

AMAZING ADJUSTMENT THAT HAS HAPPENED IN MY LIFE SINCE I FOUND STEEMIT.

By: @yhubie

When I was a child,mama told me about Mr tortoise and Mr Dog. She said: Mr Tortoise and Mr dog went on a race. As at 4am Mr Tortoise got up and placed chicken bones at specific point where he was sure that the dog will see and be forced to stop for it, he set out on he's own race. Mr dog got up by 8am, knowing that tortoise was the slowest animal and he better within himself that he'll reach before tortoise. Mr dog stopped severally to deal with the chicken bones not knowing that Mr tortoise had already finished the race before him.

In 2015, I had a male friend that always made me feel like I was nothing without him. I can say I was part of the reason why he was acting like that, I gave him so much Importance. One day I did some thinking and I asked myself,do you need people in your life that make you feel like your life is dependent on them?I decided afterwards to severe all forms of connection and communication! 1n 2017, our paths crossed again we exchanged contacts but we couldn't just connect like before because to me it was too late,I had a lot of friends in my life at the time that made me feel like i was deserving of the friendship!
