I feel that my fitness is decreasing with all the home office and city life. I want to get a cross trainer that I can run on during passive meetings and such.

The choice fell on cross trainer as a device because it seems similar to hiking (with poles) or back-country skiing. And because I remember enjoying it more than other machines when I went to the studio years ago. Also better for the knees apparently.

So, are there perhaps people here that can recommend a good machine or brand? Price range 500โ‚ฌ โ€“ 1000โ‚ฌ.

Boosts appreciated ๐Ÿ™
Thank you โค๏ธ

Second stop on my hike on the Appalachian Trail was Eddy Pond! I ate a late lunch on this beautiful, half-frozen lake.

Apparently a beaver had had lunch there, too! Unfortunately, I didn't see the animal itself.

The last day of hiking on my trip to the US took me along the Appalachian Trail. I had planned doing the first part of the trip together with my mother, which was nice and also resulted in my getting a pick-up from a different spot, so I could go a longer route.

Unfortunately, we started much later than I had wanted, and we were much slower than I had thought (mom is in her 70s now ๐Ÿ™ˆ). Additionally, temperatures were lower than forecast which was all not ideal.

Anyway, here are the pictures up until Piazza Rock (seen in the third picture, marked by red pin on the map). It is actually a lot bigger than the wide angle shot makes it appear.

We reached it just after noon, which was way later than planned. I have to say the hike till then was nice but not spectacular. Lots of dense forest cover with almost no views at all.

Looking out of the front window of the Mount Washington Cog Railway in New Hampshire.

Supposedly the oldest cog railway for recreational use. I was a bit disappointed that it didn't go to the top (because off-season apparently) and I would rather have hiked, but I was traveling with some older folks, and the view from the "Mittelstation" was also good.

The view from Cadillac Mt towards the east, just before sunset. What appears like a mountain in the distance, is actually just the shadow of the mountain I was on top of at the moment!

Since the hype was big regarding in ... I have to say, it doesn't really compare to what I have seen so often in .

Sure, you can do long exposure and crank up the saturation, so it looks like in the attached images. But it is nowhere near the "real thing", and I doubt anybody not looking for it even noticed.

One of the best things? There were snow monkeys even in the skiing resort!!

โ„๏ธ ๐Ÿ’

The cute little creatures apparently live in the areas between the slopes and didn't seem much disturbed by the humans.

I still couldn't shake off the feeling that I was invading their habitat, though ๐Ÿ˜ข

Nevertheless, it was a spectacular day, and seeing the monkeys made it even more special.

I had never been skiing outside the western world, so it was an interesting mix of knowns and unknowns.

I even had cheese fondue lunch at the restaurant on the highest peak of Shiga Kogen skiing resort.

The restaurant was a bit more expensive than the other ones, and there was only one guest beside me. The fondue was pretty good though (not the best, but certainly better than I expected).

Not visible well in the picture, but part of the veggie selection was pickled lotus root! A surprising but welcome local addition.
