Gives us an appreciation just how difficult your endeavor is both physically and mentally. Your team is an inspiration to us all as well as a reminder how comfortable we have it at home. That skiff of snow this morning on my front yard doesn't seem that bad anymore! By the way thanks for a great reply to the search for Irvine question. Hope the weather gives you a break soon.

I'm not sure the anemometer is working. What's the chance the monsoon kicks in early and scrubs all attempts this year? I hope it doesn't happen. Great dispatches and keep safe.

Maybe if you have some time you could answer some questions like when we see you carrying a packload during your transits between camps - - what are you bringing with you versus what's provisioned and left at the camps ?

Here in Rapid City, SD, it is very windy today high wind alerts going on in our area. Do you know the average wind gust speeds going on up there? Does the wind chill get well below zero? Glad those EB tents are working out well, my coworkers and I hope we will be seeing those tents at the stores in the fall. Hope the weather improves soon. Dave,
