EVALUATION by Karen

MEETINGS & PREPERATION

I wasn't at many of them, but the stuff I participated in was fine. I had fun helping Suzy prepare the food

LEADERS

Wonderful, as always

EQUIPMENT

Hey, those shelters held up through every one of those hailstorms, so no problems here.

ROUTE FOOD

Well, it's freeze-dried food; none of it is very good, but that can't be helped.

PREP HIKES

fun fun fun (espescially prasek's. oof!)

SPL

Now I'd have to say that this was the best SPL we've ever had. :) (ed note - Karen was the SPL)

PATROLS

I liked the fact that we did food as a whole group as opposed to patrols because it kept us more united.

PACK INSPECTION

A bit chaotic, but successful.

HIKE

INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! I loved almost every minute of it!!!!! (some of those hills were a little steep, but the rest of the trip was great!)

TRANSPORTATION

It all came together better than I thought it might.

HIGHLIGHTS

Anticipating the trip to come on the acclimation night; huddling between two Jennies during the first lightning storm; looking for pictures in the droplets on the shelter; the teamwork that went into staying warm and dry; basically the whole five days. :)
