Innocuous thoughts, part 1.

I'm excited about this trail and very much looking forward to that feeling of anticipatory wonder that accompanies the start of an ambitiously long trail. Throw in a little anxiety and couple that with the mystique and awe-inspiring beauty of the Colorado Plateau landscape and what we have is pure rejuvenation!
Until then, we will keep firmly focused on the trip preparations as our start date of April 5 is approaching rapidly. We continue to be perplexed at a strict mail-drop resupply plan. The regions in and around the Escalante-Grand Staircase NM are indeed so isolated that caching appears to be the only option without including a significant re-route. The rendezvous option is still there but we need takers. If interested, don't hesitate to shoot us an email. We could even hike together with a gaurantee that no one will be disappointed with the relevant sections of the Hayduke.
Stay tuned for updates.
