Hello everyone,
As some of you know, today will be a "test fit" day for me. I'll be doing some hiking to make sure I have everything situated the way I want it in my pack. This way, when I go to Mt. Whitney I don't have to worry about it. My gear weight with 4-5 liters of water and no food is 42 lbs. Food will be added the night before I leave for Whitney. That's not too bad for a 6 day excursion.
I will also be testing out my SPOT device so those of you online when I'm hiking will be able to see my route in relative real time. There will be a 20-30 minute transmission delay on your end. My communication with the satellite is much more instantaneous.

I will start hiking between 8 and 8:30 so expect the first online tracking update around 9ish PST.
