Congrats to you. This is like the zillionth time I read Pullharder report on something really worthy. It seems that you should take this game much father afield. Looks to me like the Sierra to you guys now is just for cruising and having fun, summer or winter. How about some big peaks of Peru, Bolivia or Nepal to play on? Its time. Again congrats.

One has to wonder if the energy expended by three guys to get all the GU out of a single packet equals the energy extracted. Excellent effort.

That trip defines the term "Do Epic Shit" . . . or should it be "DID Epic Shit"? :wink: Great job. :D :D
