cloudseeker2001 0 #29 June 23, 2008 Quote Quote What kind of bear protection and are you using a bear barrel to protect you food or are you hanging it? Our bear protection is a dog and a can of bear spray (and our naturally loud and exuberant conversation, of course). Canisters aren't required north of Tahoe (which is good cuz they are ridiculously heavy and bulky), we'll be hanging the food. Quote Any snow and ice crossings left at higher altitudes? We hope not more than the occasional drift across the trail. We stay below 8000 for pretty much the entire trip so it shouldn't be nearly as bad as the thruhikers are hitting in the high Sierra right now. Cool.......My plastic bear barrel is light and it keeps the mice out as well.....no fun to eat after mice have gotten into your food.

NWFlyer 2 #30 June 23, 2008 It was great to see Lisa and Mary on Thursday and Friday at Skydance running around all giddy like schoolgirls ... they couldn't WAIT to get on the trail. Looking forward to getting the updates from the field and seeing all the photos when they're done. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.
