well, i ended 2007 on a death march and started 2008 on a death march.on dec. 31 isaac, his friends pete & anna, and his roommate scott and i hiked 6.something miles into isaac's cabin - mostly in the freezing dark abyss of night.
this is isaac and i at the beginning of the journey - see us smiling? that didn't last long. besides - it was so dark you couldn't see anyone smiling.
we spent the night in his non-heated cabin, woke up, packed up, and hiked the 6.something miles out today. but today the sun was out while we hiked out and that made a HUGE difference in our journey. that and the fact that i knew we were going home and we were passing other outdoor enthusiasts on the way.
Pete and Anna got their new year's kiss in a little early.
my hips are sore, my face is sunburned and i feel dehydrated, but oh well. its 2008, right? and - not many people can say they've survived a new year's eve death march.
happy 2008.
isaac was trying to pick up some radio waves using his cross-country skis as antennas.

Sounds like so much fun! I'm proud of you for you willingness to do that.
