There are still a few of us oddballs out here. I have never wore a fitbit and I stopped wearing a watch when I fired in 2016, so I have no idea how many steps I take daily.
However, I'm still a nerd and track DW and my hiking miles within a spreadsheet (sidewalks in town don't count, which annoys DW). Periodically, I will use a phone app, but the vast majority of our distances are taken from maps (hard copy and on-line). So far this year, we have hiked 183 days for a total of 1,092 miles. Many miles are across the street in the CO Monument, although, we did go down to Bears Ears and the Needles District last week for some great hiking (Kane Gulch and Joint Trails, respectively). FYI, for those familiar with the Needles District, when we arrived at Elephant Hill trailhead packing lot at ~9:30, there was a total of 4 cars!! It's so nice to plan a trip the day before you leave based on the favorable weather.
