Thank you thank you THANK YOU!!! Mistakes that I thought were my own, seem to play out all over (Yeah -- those three square meals that took three times as long to prepare, and then they tasted like merda at altitude!!!
Funny story: I had carried those little tuna salad packets all summer. And all summer, I experienced different levels of nausea at altitude with those damn things. Finally, I was hiking to 13k and one mile into the hike, I reached into my pack for the tuna and almost cried at the thought of eating it. I turned around, headed back to the car, threw ALL of my peanut M & M's into my pack, dumpted the tuna....and had the best hike EVER. I could eat peanut M & M's doing a headstand on the moon!
