      I reflected on that yesterday on a day hike in the woods. I had absolutely nothing to fear. Except maybe falling down a cliff or running into a bear or wild boar.
      I felt unease right away when i came back to the city.

    When you realise social distancing is already one of your hobbies.. Absolutely beautiful, thank you! Can you explain a bit more the plastic bag in between socks? And aswell the kind of skis and shoes you are using please, looks pretty adapted to mountaineering too?!

    • @erik_normark
      @erik_normark  4 года назад +1

      :) Yes they say I'm an expert on social distancing.. lol Thanks. The plastic is to keep the boots dry from moisture and sweat from the feet. Boots are hard to dry on longer trips, even with a fire. This works really well. The inner socks are of course soaked after a day, but very easy to dry. I made a video about the skis and boots here ruclips.net/video/z7_GMnHZ87U/видео.html

    1: Chris Bamman, small boat, spearfishing, camping and 4wd.
    2: Chris Rishworth, off road trails, Xc skiing and camping, all on a push bike!
    Similar styles to Erik, but still great stuff. I don't like people either, so any recommendations for other solo outdoor adventure films would be warmly welcomed, just leave a reply.
    Cheers everyone, enjoy your "social distancing" travels!

    If possible, I would replace the foot bags with Goretex socks, which can breathe out moisture. Better still, gaiters can keep deep snow and dew from getting in your boots in the first place. Plastic just traps moisture both in and out, which can lead to trench foot (foot-rot) and freezing. Moist skin is also more prone to blisters...
