Half Dome August 2026 in Yosemite with @olivia.inmotion
5:30 am wake up from Upper Pines Campground , around ~18-20 miles total with 5k elevation gain, lots of blisters but a very very satisfied mood
I thought a lot about Nims when I went up this hike. There were times when I was extremely thirsty going down (yes we brought water filtration) but it was like 90 degrees out there and I was pretty scared going up. But the words from him in my brain kept me going (along with Olivia’s attitude), impossible is just an opinion and it’s not a fact.
RIP Nims. Thank you for inspiring me and a generation of mountain climbers to come.
Next stop -> Mt Adams in September. by @anyafaytelson

The past two years I’ve been experiencing SIBO flare ups and I had no idea what was causing it. After working with a GI doc and a naturopath I’ve learned that my body literally just doesn’t do well sitting for 8-10 hour days. It craves movement. And it craves more warm, cooked vegetables, warm liquids, and it def doesn’t love to eat dairy everyday. Going into the trip I was skeptical because I knew about my flare ups. And so it kind of inspired this post - what the heck could you eat when you got hot girl tummy issues and you’re going into the woods. Obviously I ate gluten and animal proteins so this is not for everyone. It’s just interesting to me 🤷🏼‍♀️

On the trip because of the combo of constant camp chores (keeping the space clean for bear safety!) and day activities (hikes) we averaged 15-25,000 steps each day with the highest days reaching 40,000 steps (I used a combo of my Apple Watch/Aura Ring to track and Adam used his Fitbit to track).

At the Tetons I experienced a little bit of altitude sickness which went away after a day of acclimating. Staying hydrated and sufficient iron levels helps.

Some of our longer hikes we did in August

Copper Ridge/ Egg Lake - Washington - around 26-28 miles total
Highline trail - Glacier np - 14 miles
Siyeh pass trail - Glacier np - 10 miles
Jenny lake loop + cascade canyon - Tetons np - 13 miles
Delta lake - Tetons np - 11 miles

Some of the dinner meals
Mixed two ramen bowls together and added mushrooms and green onion and ginger
Shrimp burgers fries and zucchini and broccoli
Spinach tortellini chicken brocolli in white sauce with sourcream
Chicken and red lentil pasta with red sauce
Indian night - lentils rice and chicken potatoes tikka
Chicken veggies mac and cheese
Chicken sausage hot dogs
Ate out twice around the National park

And I started each morning with a probiotic and some warm ginger turmeric and chamomile tea. Chamomile helps the tummy so I like to have it in the morning rather than at night because it’s a diuretic. We used the MSR to boil water.
