R03/R01 TR: Loop Around Mt. Darwin via Haeckel Col & Darwin Col Sept 2012

[rlown]

the limit is per post.. not per thread.. you can break up your TR into different posts (eg, days) and post more..

And still, a Very respectable TR..

Interesting shots of the Darwin Bench. The 2 times I have been through there I never saw "sandy beaches" as the shore line was mostly snow bound. Out of curiosity what are your ages? I would like to do a trail like that but doubt I could knock it out as quick as you were able to.

Thanks for the tr format suggestion rlown. The one post for each day makes more sense:)

Thanks Bill. I was 43 although I just turned 44 today. Donn was celebrating his 60th b day when I met him a few weeks prior. His exercise routine puts me to shame. He runs twice/week and does weight training 2 - 3 days/week.

Although I like to go faster on trails he is in his element while climbing. He carries a heavier pack and I'm just 20 lbs heavier, so it seems to even out. . .
