June 04 Summer Training We've got big backpacking plans for the summer. Namely, we're going to backpack into, across, and back out of ye olde Grand Canyon. The only problem is that we haven't been hiking much in the past two years, as our scrawny, pallid legs will testify. So to whip ourselves back into shape, we've been doing a lot of "training" hikes: hikes that are steep and hot, which we tackle while fully-ladden with weighted packs. So far it's working, because I can feel my legs getting stronger every week. Hopefully, by the time the trip rolls around, we'll have thighs like saguaro cacti and the traverse will be a breeze. Take a look below for some pics from our training hikes. Hike on, - Jas      |
