Chris, wonderful thread and it's scary reading it I know and have heard about all the questions. Here are a few more:
Look up the average high add 25F, look at the average low, subtract 25F, expect blue skies and sun, rain and snow.
Yes, expect rain.
It's kinda out of the way and there isn't much to do there.
25 fish for head of household, 10 for each house hold member and no you can't participate. Yes, really.
Mail your clothing home and check the meat or fish as carry on.
5 miles from the centerline of the road. Don't be decieved by the topo map, tussocks will make you wished you'd used a bow.
If you can average 50mph you're doing good, and then add in another 30 minutes for road construction delays.
It's more of a trail than a road.
Don't be suprised if you don't see the mountain.
If you've never done that before, trying it for the first time 100 miles from the closest road probably isn't the best plan.
You might want to look into the logistics of that first.
Laughing Paul... all good additions. Guessing you won't see this today, as I believe I saw you and your boat headed south out of town this AM?
