I am so lucky to be headed off on the Colorado Trail tomorrow with Meg Kent from Laramie and all the other hikers we will meet out there. We have been planning and prepping for a while. And the anticipation is at its peak! Today we mailed out our four boxes of food off toward Silverton and Monarch. Meg's pack is starting at ~35 pounds and mine is close to 50! Below you can find 8 days worth of my trail food for the first portion of our journey. Highlights include a variety of pudding flavors and Thai Peanut Slaw from Farm to Summit out of Durango. I am really looking forward to those meals. We are planning for all weather conditions and are excited for what's to come. You can find updates here on this blog once per week (I hope).
Happy trails to you...

Is it Christmas?!
No. It's just some of the waste produced by me during my PhD. These are just the tubes and tips from EPS and DNA extractions over the course of a year. Would be great to develop zero-waste laboratory solutions... |
