Sometimes I'm not sure if Jessica grasps the full scope of my hikes. I went over the details. Thirty some miles, serious gain, big mountain, Tuscon, August, etc. She promptly replied "I have a couple hand warmers you can use" :)

jj helped me finish off the AZT, bought pizza for lunch and set a pace I'd never accomplish on my own. Thank you! A huge thanks to Denny, Bruce and Dave for the majority and all the good times along the way!

Chrome domed 8 hours. Sweat more in a day than probably ever. At one point I got tired of sweating. 2 black-tailed rattlers passed and jumped over a diamond back with unknown energy near the end.

As it turns out, my hands never got cold all day. :y:
