great to see you in here Dave…really thought that someone is missing, now i know who
looking forward to this and since the Goruck-Challenge seams like it's dead, this would be a really nice alternative imo!

Ciao Rafa. Thanks, i'm really looking forward to this one.
I've got many more ideas, but it's all about where, when and how long.

@Finn666:

i wanna see some bigass mountains around me

The Scottish Highlands aren't as big as the Alps, but they can get pretty wild.

I've camped in Lauterbrunen, Switzerland (located in the Jungfrau region) and the view every morning was amazing. Here's a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1_lauterbrunnen_valley_2012b.jpg. You are able to walk to the gondola to take you to the spot to start the hike to the Schilthorn http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schilthorn. Part of James Bond film was actually shot on this mountain. This was a great all day hike.

Great idea guys… I'm part of a group of people calling themselves "the vintage hikers", which means we meet up several times a year (mostly weekends) all over Germany for a hike. "Vintage" because no modern gear is allowed. It's all wool, cotton, leather etc, no goretex and this stuff.

I'm currently trying to export this idea to the States, with small success... but I was able to organize a "vintage hike" at my inlaws place in Virginia (sadly only 4 people showed up). If any of you is interested, I'll keep you informed.
