Well, it is official that team Powersauce is back down to two members, Matt and me. Glenn and Melissa just could not make it happen this year for various reasons. Therefore, Matt and I have researched and will practice two-man rope travel on the Kahiltna Glacier. Neither of us have experience on a two-man rope team, but we will get enough practice before we leave in five weeks.
Right now, we are packing our food for the trip. We will be mailing our food up to Talkeetna Air Taxi to store for us until we arrive on June 3. This will save us the burden of carrying it all through the airports and paying the extra fees for the baggage. We will have over 50 pounds of food each.
The weekends in May will involve last-minute training here in Colorado. I hope to have some interesting info and pictures up after each weekend. April has been very busy at work for both of us so we have not gotten out into the mountains like we had hoped.
