We did a final round of planning and packed up our bags for the first leg of the trip. The first resupply will be at Churchill Scott Hut on day seven. The second resupply will be on day fourteen at Mt. Mansfield. We loaded up our packs for the first leg and they each weighed in around 60 lbs. Thankfully they will be getting progressively lighter, even considering considering resupply points; we are carrying most of the staples the whole way just to be safe. Photographic coming soon…

More Gear
I picked up a bunch more gear today.
– Sunscreen/bug repellent combo
– An additional solar panel
– New shades (my old ones snapped in half as I was taking them off the other day…)
– Biodegradable soap
– An extra Nalgene
– Tooth brush covers
– Cooking fuel
– Hand sanitizer
That’s about it…
Soon we’ll be mixing the rest of the trail mix, and shipping off the food to our resupply locations some how. I also need to do a bunch of maintenance on my boots and water filter before the end of the week.
