Friday, 9/2/11, Day One: After 18 hours on the road with a couple stops for last minute supplies, we got to the trailhead at about 8500 feet. I usually get a couple days to acclimate but that was not to be this time. I took some gingko biloba that is supposed to ward off elevation issues. We'll see.
Darren and I finished stowing the last of our items in our packs and hit the trail to get back in a couple miles on a stream we thought might be a good place to start. The first couple days were to be a scouting effort aimed at covering some ground that Darren hadn't been able to fully explore last year. The pack in was uneventfull except we mispolaced our stream and for a while thought we might not have water to camp near. We finally got our heads on straight and set up camp with great anticipation for the next day.
