How many miles/day?

[BuckSmasher]

I wanna say like 11 hours. Things were going so well the first bit than we pulled saddles off around noon and had a sit down lunch. And the last stretch was so time consuming that we ended up building electric fences and setting up tents in the dark

On our deeper wilderness rides we are struggling to get more than 10-14 miles/day with all the logs we saw. The little 4 or 5 inchers aren't bad but if we run into even one big two foot thick log its a major ordeal and huge time sink.

When packing camp, we'd do 25 miles max in order to have time to unload/set up camp etc. Otherwise 25-30 miles was about tops.

Yeah it’s pretty lame but part of it I reckon. I usually only pack a 24” saw so a big bull pine across the trail on a steep hillside is a lot of work and time.
