The last few days have been full of ups and downs. Literal ones and emotional ones. We started out from Kennedy Meadows in good spirits, only slightly dampened by our heaviest packs to date. With 9-10 days of food, a 3 lb bear can, ice axe, crampons, and extra warm clothes, my pack was over 40 lbs. My heaviest carry in the desert was 26 lbs.
