For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Burned the most calories in a single day I’ve ever recorded so I’m treating myself to a week of corn soup and shrimp salad. 050 5

For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Camping in the only part of the state it’s safe to venture outside at. 040 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 13/07/2026I got up super early this morning to beat the heat and got another 6.2 miles checked off my IAT journey and completed the Sturgeon Bay segment which includes the Eastern terminus. I hiked that part of the segment back on Mother’s Day with my family. 040 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Ice Age Trail update. I’ve been busy this spring and have completed 16% of the 1160 miles. Roughly 183 miles down. Finished up my 26th segment today and have another 4 in progress. Greenbush done and started Parnell today in the Kettle Moraine State Forest. Super humid. Glad I got an early start. 191 9
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Earned my first IAT patch by completing the Lakeshore Chapter Lakeshore Wanderer. I had to hike segments in this chapter’s territory many of which went along the shores of Lake Michigan. 050 5
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Oh I saw the big boulder! Then the next day I saw 3 black bear cubs on the trail ahead of me. They were so freaking cute I wish I had gotten a picture but I didn’t know where mama was so I scared them off right away. 140 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I saw so many scarlet tanagers! They’re so gorgeous! (Photo not mine cuz I suck at wildlife photography) 081 8
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 18/05/2026On the Wi/mn border enjoying a French 75. My first hike stayed dry and I even had the sun pop out. 050 5
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Did the IAT Kettlebowl Segment yesterday. Got a shuttle so I was able to do this 10.2 mile hike all in one go. This also puts me at over 10% of the Ice Age Trail complete! 030 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 26/04/2026Played hooky on Thursday and it was so worth it. Knocked out Bohn Lake segment and a good start on the Greenwood segment. IAT 040 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 19/04/2026After finishing up the Hartman Creek Segment yesterday I officially crossed the 100 mile mark for the IAT. I only have to do this 11.5ish more times! I began my hiking journey last year around Halloween and I’ve hiked over 200 miles. Incredibly grateful I have a body that has allowed me to do this. 130 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 13/04/2026IAT Slinger and Pike Lake Segments. A couple weeks ago I did these two segments out and back for another 5.3 miles. I’m nearing 100. A lot of elevation gain in the PL Segment. Including an observation tower at the top of Powder Hill. PL is part of the Kettle Moraine State Forest. 140 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 12/04/2026IAT Point Beach Segment i finally finished this 10 mile segment. I split it into two hikes since I had to do out and backs. Im not in shape enough to do 20 miles in a day. It was a gorgeous morning on Lake Michigan. 130 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Coming back from a beautiful tropical vacation to this seems like a giant fuckyou from some higher power. 040 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 09/03/2026Greetings from a non shithole country! You can’t make me come back to the us. 140 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 01/03/2026I did half of the Point Beach segment of the IAT as an out and back. I need this segment to complete my first chapter patch but they’re closing 2 miles of trail for forest management until June starting next week. So I changed my plans. I can’t wait to come back when everything is alive. 140 4
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 04/02/2026He looks like every bit of a loser ass punk he is. Loving that he looks like he was crying in his mugshot. 100 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Ginger has brought me 3 socks this morning. She’s a fierce huntress. 050 5
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 28/01/2026The way some people are reacting about belichik not getting hof is absolutely bananas. The nfl subreddits are giving me a laugh today. 030 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 26/01/2026It was a little cold on my hike yesterday. Knocked off another 5.65 miles of IAT connecting route. 010 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 24/01/2026People magazine updated their headline to remove “armed” from in front of man. Afraid of being sued? 030 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 17/01/20263 pairs of leggings for the win! Proof I got my ass out there today. Checked off more connecting route of the IAT. This chunk is 27 miles so I’m breaking it up into parts. Got 5.4 miles of it done today for a total of 10.9 miles. 060 6
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 31/12/2025In the 9.5 weeks since I’ve started hiking I’ve hiked 89 miles, in two different states, in forests, the desert, farmland, towns and cities. Of the 89, 41 of those miles went towards my goal of hiking the complete Ice Age Trail. Might not sound like a lot but I’m 3.5% closer to finishing. 170 7
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 21/12/2025All in all I marked another 2.6 miles off the Ice Age trail bringing my percentage of completion to 3%! I’m hoping for one more hike before the end of the year the week after Xmas. This winter I’ll probably focus on trail communities & the Ahnapee state trail portions as it’s crushed packed gravel. 010 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 21/12/2025Algoma reminded me of a the small town in central Wisconsin I grew up in. The lakeshore was windy AF and Lake Michigan seemed particularly angry today. Really made me think of the crew of the Edmund Fitzgerald and how terrifying it must have been. 110 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 21/12/2025Did my first couple miles of the ahnapee state trail yesterday in Algoma which is partially used in the IAT. The trail part of it was covered in ice but luckily there was enough snow on top to make it not too slippery. wasn’t too cold. 110 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Shoutout to my hiking boots that really were waterproof. Also boo to me cuz my phone fell out of my pocket and I didn’t notice right away so I had to backtrack. It was pretty difficult hiking in the snow, my legs are feeling it. Trekking poles were lifesavers. 020 2
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 01/12/2025It may have snowed 6” over the weekend but that didn’t stop me from checking off part of another segment of the IAT. I got a late start so only did a small portion of the Manitowoc segment. It was beautiful. 110 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 24/11/2025I did a bunch of mall walking yesterday but I couldn’t help myself and found a quick 2 mile portion of the IAT to do this morning. I found a helpful list of segments that avoid hunters for deer gun season. Montello is one of the newer segments, added last year. 030 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 16/11/2025Very bizarre greeting from Tisch Mills (I made sure to smoke weed along their streets & had like 30 other gods thanks to their signs) 010 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 16/11/2025Tisch Mills was a beautiful segment with a weird little libertarian’s wet dream in between. I had to ford a small creek. The water was FREEZING. The second half of the segment followed the East Twin River. 110 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 16/11/2025Yesterdays IAT segment was Tisch Mills and 6 miles of connecting roads. I did 15.7 miles total and it was way too much for my feet. The road walking was really uncomfortable and boring. My feet are really blistered. 130 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Getting ready to go! I’ve got to ford a creek today so wish me luck I don’t fall on my ass. 290 9
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Spent some time hiking along some of the beaches of Lake Michigan. It flurried almost the entire hike. Bonus pic of me and Masa, a thru hiker from Japan. He’s kind of becomes a celebrity on the trail with people leaving him trail magic (food, water, mittens) and giving him a warm place to sleep. 110 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 10/11/2025After a quick 2.25 miles through the preserve, I stopped for a bathroom break and a chai latte to warm me up. Saw the birthplace of the ice cream sundae, who knew? Thought it was going to be a pretty boring hike thru a city but then the landscape changed. 100 1
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Segments #6 and #7 are in the books. 5.7 miles of IAT, total of 10.3 miles. My longest hike yet and I am feeling it. Today took me through the Dunes Woodland preserve and the trail community of Two Rivers. It was a clear and cold morning out on the trail today. 130 3
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 08/11/2025Lots more people on the trail today and I saw my second butt. I really gotta start making more noise when I hike by myself. It was chilly this morning but my hat kept me nice and warm. That big rock was left behind from the glacier. My view while I snacked. 250 5
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 08/11/2025IAT segment #5 is done. 5 miles of trail, 9.9 miles total. First pic is the start of the hike, next is the end. Saw a hunter with their kill on the trail today. The LaBudde segment goes thru the LaBudde fishery, sometimes following a little creek. 180 8
For Fucks Sake @luafox.bsky.social · 06/11/2025I may have gotten myself an early birthday present. 050 5
