My combined total log of hiking and walking for this summer has been now 932 km! So I'm upping my total ledge to ALS research, in honor of Rainer Grimm up to 932 Euro!

Please consider also giving to this underfunded field, if you can afford it.

What are things you must buy before you *need* them (otherwise they'll all be sold out)?

I'll start with 2:

Snow shovel
Electric fan
