    for cats, it's easy to impose distancing : just tell them not to go inside the white circle

    They do prefer to think inside the box, but it's more a question of how to be most in the way.

    Re: Post Race!

    Fun times. At the end of this month, I get to ride a bus for several hours...while wearing a mask. The mask may be pointless. I'd be surprised if the bus has more than half a dozen people on it, and it's entirely possible that I'll be the ONLY person on it (aside from the driver), for some stretches. Still, it will be about six hours. That will be a funky mask by the end of it.

    It is said that the mask is working for 4 hour max after you have to change it. You may need to take 2 masks (even more if you have to come back by bus)

    the source for the 4 hours : https://www.afnor.org/en/faq-barrier-masks/#use

    Re: Post Race!

    Yeah, that hiker part is pretty legitimate. It will be about 200 miles across the wilderness to look at a variety of streams for their potential for salmon spawning habitat. Interestingly, I'll be able to get supplies at two different, very remote, backcountry ranches. At least one of them was a working cattle ranch a long time back...or maybe not, it was owned by a movie star back around the 30s, so was it a working ranch or not, I can't say. These days, they are recreational destinations for those who want to get away from it all.

    I have to keep my average up. Counting only trips of 100 miles or more, I want to average 100 miles for every year of my life. Since I don't know how long I'll live, and assuming that I won't be able to do so much, eventually, I figure 10K miles would be a good goal.

    That's impressive ! It is just for your job or do you combine business (salmon watching) with pleasure (hiking) ?

    Re: Post Race!

    This one is definitely a combination. The first couple days I'll be trying to figure out why salmon are not using a very nice stream. It may be just that they don't agree with me, or it may be because there's a big waterfall somewhere downstream. I'll be finding out.

    That will be followed by a couple days across the wilderness getting to another puzzle. A pair of streams that are thought to be salmon spawning habitat, but we really don't know. I'll be finding out. That will end up at a backcountry ranch/resort where I'll get a supply drop and take a day off (hopefully getting a hot meal, or two, as well).

    From there I have a couple days to a nice, but annoying, creek. What's nice is the creek itself. What's annoying is the fact that I ford it 44 times in 20 miles, with most of those being in the top 12, or so. I'll be looking for spawning salmon in that one.

    I'm then thinking of taking a side trip to another ranch for another supply drop, then on to survey another creek, briefly, then out to meet up with a bunch of people looking at salmon on a much more accessible creek. Those folks will be able to give me a ride home.

    No, not yet. Cases are rising, and rising fast by percentage, but the numbers were low, so a large percentage is possible without a large number. The new cases were less than 0.1% of the local population. Still, that's in either a day or a week (I'm not sure which, it might also have been a weekend), so it's getting a bit much, really.
