YOU ARE MY GURU! Thanks so much for the invaluable information. Though I managed with my 45 pounds, you are absolutely correct - managing the rocky parts of the trail up to Outpost would have been vastly easier. Much gratitude to you again and again!
"And did you get what
you wanted from this life, even so?
I did.
And what did you want?
To call myself beloved, to feel myself
beloved on the earth.”
Raymond Carver, 'Last Fragment'
