Well, not until June 2, 2008 but you get the point. We purchased our tickets to Anchorage tonight. We are allowing 28 days total for the trip. We have gone with travel insurance that will allow us to change our return ticket for a value of up to $750--that should cover the change fee and any additional fees.
Training begins in earnest December 1. That date is rapidly approaching. We have begun some light conditioning to get back into the groove. Over Thanksgiving we plan to climb Mount Princeton (a 14er near Buena Vista, Colorado) and sleep on the summit.
My wife got me the excellent Icebox igloo tool for my birthday. Igloos seem to be the way to go on Denali. Unfortunately, the snow has been so sparse this fall in the Rockies of Colorado that we will not get to practice building an igloo on the summit. Hopefully, we will be able to practice building with it soon. Check it out here: http://www.grandshelters.com.
