Dick's Pass, TRT 2008

This will be my place to post journal entries for my next hike - the John Muir Trail. I still have so much to do before our start date of July 8, 2009. I'm still tinkering with food, re-supply, VVR visit and general transportation to/from trailheads. My gearlist is pretty well set as I gave it a good shakedown hike last month on section A of the PCT. I'm also learning how to post and edit this journal from my iPhone. So for now, I'm just working out the bugs in these systems and looking forward to hitting the trail again.
