inPantone book from 1998 still beats my phone app for matching
Kept a 1998 book on the shelf for years and it still saves me on greens. Those inks faded in different ways over time, so what your app reads off a screen almost never lines up with what actually comes off the press. Add in how every phone camera and screen shows color a little differently and you're chasing a moving target. The book gives you one fixed reference that doesn't change no matter what device you're holding. That's why the Denver swatch matched your book and not the app, the app was showing you a guess. Physical books have their own quirks too, but at least they're the SAME quirks every single time.

inA ranger in the White Mountains told me my 12 mile days were why I kept getting hurt
Kept getting hurt because 12 mile days were too much, not because of the number itself. Plenty of folks do big miles fine, it's the pack weight and how fast you build up that usually gets ya.
