Re: TR- TM to the valley
Making a list and checking it twice..... I would never, ever remember everything without a checklist, I circle the last minute stuff that can't be packed until just before leaving so it stands out. And tape it to the front door. Everything gets crossed off. And that is the total of my organizational skills.

That is too funny. I do the same thing. Sometimes I even tape a list to the steering wheel of my truck.jessegooddog wrote: And tape it to the front door.

Re: TR- TM to the valley
If I'm not over-organized, I'm not organized at all. Checklist down to the number of small items. Else I forget everything. And a to-do list for the day of departure.
#45 Put backpack in car
#46 Put dog out with water
#47 Lock house door
#48 Go back in house to get that thing you forgot anyway

Re: TR- TM to the valley
I usually have a checklist, but....well it is a long story.
My California medication probably added to the forgetfulness
My sunglasses are sitting on a log somewhere along Lewis Creek too. And here I am arguing about leaving coffee grounds!
Vans are AWESOME for smearing, talus hopping not so much. House and car sized boulders I would say a hell yes, but pumpkin sized talus....ouch.

Re: TR- TM to the valley
A PCT hiker was sleeping with his food in his pack in his tent? In Yosemite? One day out of TM?
I believe everything except the part about his being a PCT hiker.
