By dividing Z with the equivalent return of a 1 mm drop in a volume of a meter cube (Z 0) and using the logarithm of the result (because the values vary greatly from drizzle to hail), one obtains the dimensionless quantity dBZ: â â¡
The trail measured 2,168.1 miles in 2001. The total distance of the trail changes slightly from year to year as trail maintenance groups reroute the trail as needed. An Appalachian Trail thru-hike takes between five and seven months to complete the entire trail. (About 20 percent of hikers who begin the trail will complete it.)

backpacking: 2 miles per hour, +1 hour for every 1000 feet of elevation climb. Use the formula, and then take a few walks. You should get a rough idea how your pace measures up to the formula and be able to adjust the formula accordingly.share | improve this answer.or example, how long does it take an average person walking at an average speed to walk a mile on the following types of trails: 1  a mostly flat, easy trail. 2  a moderate trail, with some elevation changes. 3  a strenuous hike, with significant elevation change or difficult terrain.
