Fenix 5x Plus Trip Report to Chicago Basin

I don't have the patience to write this one up in the editor here on the forums, so i did it in Google Docs and just published it to the web. I warn you, this is a long read with a lot of photos, but it might give some of you an idea of how I used the 5x Plus on my recent backpacking trip.

GC makes it pretty easy to get that into the watch! Cool! Thanks for the writeup and tips!! How do you get the watch face screenshots?

Thanks. Very interesting report about a real outdoor trip/adventure and not the usual sniveling, that the elevation is 5 meters off and the distance 25 meters to short...

That looks like a great trip! It's beautiful country up there. Thanks for taking the time to write all of that up.
Also, congrats on leaving the next 2 summits for a future trip - that's some clever thinking!
