What is your estimated time to finish? Killian Jornet is also a fan of Snickers for his epic feats, I think he is inspired by you.

got home last night at 1:30 AM as we had to drive all the way back around to retrieve a vehicle at the start finished in 57 hours, our route was 91 miles- about a fourth of that on snowshoes, about half of the miles in cold rain, survived several very sketchy fords, some very tough navigation (and fortunately only a couple of minor mistakes) and another very grand adventure under my belt
