Good hike ! But How did you do it in 4h ?!
Did it in 8h. Did you run ?
Im glad you've done and ejoyed that hike. I did run when I was able to run due to the terrain! I was challenging myself. Thanks!
Wow, 4 hours! That's insanely awesome. I did it last year and it took me about 10 hours 😳 and I was absolutely knackered.
