Achievements, Badges and Abilities



I have created a few achievements, badges and abilities, that can be unlocked when a Long Distance Hiker takes a hike.  




Outsider Badge - (several tiers)  When you begin a long distance hike, you become an Outsider after spending your first night outside. To earn the Outsider Badge, one must spend the majority of time in the out-of-doors for a number of days.  No artificial climate control allowed except fire. Makeshift shelters (tent, lean-to) are ok, as long as they are not artificially climate controlled. 

To reach Tier I (Fledgling), you must spend 2 weeks outside, with no more than three nights indoors. 

Tier II (Journeyman) is two full cycles of the moon with no more than 12 nights in climate controlled spaces. 

Tier III (Master) is four full turnings of the Moon with no more than 24 nights in climate controlled spaces.



Long Distance Trekker (LDT) - The LDT achievement is first unlocked at Level 1 after you have completed your 2nd or 3rd resupply and have traveled from 75 to 100 miles.  The exact time of unlocking is determined by Pamola and will require an offering of fat and oil to initiate.  If you are successful, you become a Level 1 LDT.  Each level is achieved after sufficient time and distance and will always be at the approval of that whom you seek, Pamola.    

Level 2 = 200 miles. Level 3 = 500 miles. Level 4 = 1000 miles. Level 5 = 2000 miles.



Camp Cook Badge - Prepare, eat and digest five meals.  Each meal must have at least two different ingredients, but can be either cold or hot.  

Resupply Wizard Ability - Successfully find enough food to last from three to five days, five different times to unlock this ability.  

Funky Hiker Badge - To earn this badge you must accomplish the following tasks:  1. Have a fellow traveler that you meet, mention your smell.  2.  Have another open a window in your presence to find fresh air.  3. Have yourself seated in an "out of the way" area of a restaurant or bar.  




Smell the Roses Blue Blaze Achievement - Take five different blue blazed trails away from the main trail to visit interesting things and spectacular views.  This is above and beyond any blue blaze you take for water or shelter.  



Ride Finder Ability - Successfully secure three rides for yourself or your group.
