The time for departure has finally come. On Saturday I'll be flying into San Diego and then starting the trail on Sunday the 19th of May. After a stay with San Diego trail angel and former thru-hiker Girlscout, I'll be on my way on this amazing journey.
Last minute things that I'm doing include: 1) Packaging up some Chia Seeds to help with hydration in SoCal 2) NOT bringing a stove till I have it sent to me at Kennedy Meadows for going through the Sierra's. 3) Getting some last minute socks and shoes finalized for back-ups on the trail 4) Shipping the first 500 miles of resupply boxes to myself (10 boxes will get my to about Bend, Oregon , where I look forward to seeing my girlfriend and seeing some of the local sites around Portland and Bend for a few days R&R) 5) Just got in my new prescription sunglasses - and will be wearing them everyday to help my eyes adjust to the new Rx before I hit the trail Thanks again to all who have helped me with encouragement, support, and especially to all the companies and individuals who have helped to
