Just laminated the topo, finalizing the food situation, working to lighten the load, lining up porters to the base and off the top...
T-32 days.

I just organized my GU packets, by flavor, by number, by calorie, per day.

I have also sharpened my butter knives and checked that the bolt kit, tuning forks and epoxy are all in tip top shape. I have my tat knife nice and sharp and the Anti-Tat cord ready to go.
Just because I'm going fast and then on a trade route doesn't mean I can shirk the responsibility of leaving them in better shape than I found them.

See you at the top Mark! Looking toward to meeting you. That is as long as my résumé is accepted for the porter position ;) haha

Never too early!
I hope you will be able to continue with your video TRs, I really enjoyed those last year. I might be in the valley for Jim's NIAD, so depending on the timeline I might see you. When you come down for Zion, Christina and I would like to meet up for dinner or something - let us know!

Okay, I'm packed. Other than a bunch of coffee and another pillow, if it's not in that pile, I've forgotten it.
Leaving on Thursday!
Does anyone want Ian's brand new Petzl Meteor III helmet $100?
or a pair of brand new, large Metolius Wall Golves $25?
I'll bring them down if you do. PM me.
