Not much happened today other than trying to get my pack from 55lbs down to 35lbs. We took all of our gear and spread it out on the floor and divvied up the group gear according to weight. In the end my pack weighed in around 47lbs.
This is a bummer because on this particular route we climb up on the north side, and then come down another route on the north-east side. We have to carry our full pack the whole time for over 23 miles round trip. Usually, if one is coming back from the summit the same way that they climbed up, they can setup a base camp and then on summit day only take the things that are needed to summit, leaving the tent and other heavy items behind.
I go to bed one last time in the hotel and nice clean roomy bed with the alarm set for 5AM.
