First Hike - Prepping For 100 Mile Wilderness (3rd Attempt)

Today, Wendy and I headed out for a walk with the dogs. Of course, I threw on my pack for a little added weight.

I have created a unit of measure to track progress and actually do some training before heading out this summer. I intend 10 miles per day with 40 pounds - 400 pound miles. For training and to ensure some level of fitness, I need to build to 600 pound miles per day by the beginning of July.

Today ... I achieved 84 pound miles. It is a start.

It was wonderful.

It is a small batch, but it is the first.

I am so grateful!

We are preparing the pit for sugaring! The foreman seems to be content with the progress.
