Rob and my assessment after our trip was that we took to much gear and we needed to lighten up, but your gear weights put us to shame. We did not have near that much trouble going through Gotter, though I do remember it being a mud hole and we saw where others had waded through the muck. Sue and Andy at Tusc had warned us about it. Also Rob and I went to high School together and we are both 44, I know to many of the members of this board, we are still young bucks, wet behind the ears. However I guess to others we are the old guys. one last thought, at the risk of offending someone, I wish that a non-human mammal had met his or her demise on your trip. Heavycanoe |

Loved the report. Just let me say "as an old guy" that it was sincerely great to hear the "young guys" stepping up to help the poodle folks when it was clear you aready had enough on your hands taking care of your own gear. Glad to hear you are already talking about going back...that took me about 6 months. Note that HC is the real marathoner and still in that kind of shape. I may have a couple of them under my belt but you couldn't tell that looking at me now. I do, however, still have that mentality of being "too mean to quit". Thanks for the story. RoJo |
