Yesteray was a monster of a day for me. I trekked 4.5 hours through ice, snow, and some cleared paved surfaces with a 28 pound pack. The temperature was about 10 degrees F for most of the day. Lee came with me and we stopped for one hour to have lunch at a place in Lawrence. I recovered quickly for the most part......sore last night, but a good-night's sleep revived me. I get the sense that my body is adapting to the increasing work demand placed on it. I still think I need to do several 6-8 hour treks with a pack for endurance. I know I need to increase my pack to at least 30 pounds, but it's so darned hard to walk with that load.
Knowing that my top-of-the-line clothing is working for me is a huge confidence booster. I still have a few gear items to buy, but I'm good-to-go.
