  • My Leki poles are nearly 30 years old and the parts, should they wear out, are replaceable. I highly recommend them. I suggest you try out the different grip choices. Mine are cork and don’t get cold, but aren’t as grippy as other choices. I have YakTrax, but haven’t used them (or needed them) in Iceland or Norway. In the US they were fine, but I’ve used them fewer than 10x in 15 years.

    I do. It means peace and quiet. It means a reasonable price for housing. It means learning some skills to maintain your place yourself. It means being more self-sufficient. It means you have to plan ahead because shopping is a 1x a week event, not a daily thing.

    It also means people visit less and either are amazed at how much you have “out here,” or are astounded you can live “out here.”
