I did a 1.5 mile hike yesterday with 25lb pack. According to the Garmin, 1000ft of elevation. Kicked my butt.
Aside from the plague I was fighting, it turns out my vocal cords are not opening, probably nerve damage from the radiation treatments. Doc says I'm operating at 1/5th of normal airway opening. Was at Cleveland Clinic last week and have appt in Phlly on the 14th.

While frustrating, at least I'm still on the right side of the grass. On a positive note, I was able to get a MT surplus elk combo tag.
