There’s always an endless list of things to do before one heads out of town for four months. I’ve been working away at that list for a couple months now and it reached a fever pitch over the weekend.

One of the last details was dropping off all my extra supplies and gear at Katy and Todd’s house, (who have graciously agreed to be my resupply command center) They will send me different things as I need them from gear and guidebooks to food and shoes. In order to remember everything I’ve left with them I’ve taken photos that i keep on my phone so I can always recall what’s available to be sent.
This is a picture of all my different shoe choices. I won’t use them all, but probably at least four pairs

This is some random extra clothing and colder weather gear if I need it sent to me.
Lastly, this is a bunch of misc items: from new journals and seam sealer to guidebook pages and bug dope.

Departure day is sunrise on May 4th from the Mexican Border near Campo, CA.
