(attempt to) sleep
10 miles up 3,000 feet to the highest peak in utah

experience altitude sickness
(at least i wasn't puking like that kid in the scout group)
10 miles down 3,000 feet
(attempt to) sleep
7 miles down 1,000 feet with a 30+ lb backpack

BANG!! That looks like the best^!

P.s. I would probably like that guy you are going to marry. He'll have to make a MUSIC MYSPACE when he gets home. ALSO, I don't know what I'm going to do when you're gone. No one else ever reads/comments on my blog! It's really quite sad.

You are crazy! I could never hike that much.. my legs would fall off and I would pass out. Maybe not in that order.. I'd like to be unconscious for the legs falling off part.
I wish I had your motivation. Seriously.
