    I've actually met you before, bootpacking a few years back. Met girlguide too, and have experienced the baked goods. Next Saturday I'll be up there. Dark Blue Marmot Jacket, Grey pants.

    How do you get involved in the bootpacking thing, and what's the 'pay'?

    WW and Dave G: boot packing is an invite only thing, they can use the help, but just want to keep it under control, and under the radar or public

    Sorry Mex: I'm sure I'll put a name to the face when I see you.

    Looks good for 3 weeks to go, hoping for a 50cm storm in the meantime

    Glade to see Girlguide is "training" soo hard, for guiding the "Grumpies."

    I guess I won't be up there next weekend. Patrol isn't packing on weekends yet. I'm a weekend warrior.

    I got up on monday, but girlguide has been up a few more days,

    looking good, the heat had a bit of an effect on the snow last weekend to tues, but 5cm more and the heat crust is very suportable and you just glide over it.

    I might get a day in this upcoming week, but she will be up a few days I'm sure
