I was just in the Applachian mountains, and it is more than possible to do
23 miles in a day if you are just traveling from sunrise to sunset.  And
in good shape.

I'm not sure what kind of time line I will be running, considering it is
being dictated by ingame actions of characters.  If they pull the pud,
then it may go until it is out of their hands.  That will take some time.
Right now, I need the 2 weeks that Geleia will be behind, maybe one more.
We should stay even for at least a few weeks.  If it could be done,
Geleia could end up exactly 6 months ahead so that travel time would be
nearly instantaneous for the "big move", if it happens...
