The photo of me, in the last frame is a pretty good indication that my body build is on the skinny side. What that photo doesn't show is what I looked like back in April with about 35 pounds on that skinny frame. I found, to no great surprise, that walking around the mountains at my "normal" adult weight was many times easier than carrying around 35 extra pounds that I've tried to carry over the last 10 years. If the weight stays off, which it should since I'm a runner, then I should have several more years of making hikes like this or even longer. Many of the new "limitations" I was experiencing I mistakenly thought were due to age---some were but most were just due to carrying around too much weight on a frame not made for it. I'm not sure what was more enjoyable---catching the fish or making the difficult hike out with a lot of energy to spare. I'm already adding more hikes to next summer's plans. (Don't tell Randy.)
