| bl: | What is said? it takes a village to raise a child & numerous MIT degrees (1 patent perhaps) to make a proper O night light....like so many at Tiomila I'd imagine. I'll work on a halfway sol'n, say liberal arts type. I'll also check in with what Sharon knows. Have a thumbnail-sized LED for map reading (fm AZ WROC meet in '05 which seemed an excellent sol'n).
Other issue I wonder about is what works for sustenance - don't bother to ans as it must be complicated. I wonder about a good hot meal maybe between 6-9pm. Not any rogaine experience to speak of (just 1) but can't live on squeeze food etc no matter how many calories. I recall nausea. Know I want something real on a few occasions in the period. I expect Sharon has more capability re living on "thin air.". On one hand, I'd like to plan a visit to HH, on the other it might /could be a 'weakening' stop - hard to say (no more than 30'). I do not think we will ever be jogging but, hopefully, almost always in (productive:)) motion but max energy to live up to that ideal is a bit of a mystery - not to mention even the cat nap side of things. |

| kadley: | Lights -- starting to see commercial LEDs with the capability of mine. Can find Princeton Tech and Petzl with really bright lights, question is how long they will last -- need a good 10 hours. I've used smaller lights and regretted it. At times have planned to come in for light and got delayed, and had to use a really small LED lamp -- no fun/not efficient.
Food -- a few Cliff bars, several Hammer gel packs, and a bagel chopped up into pieces with cream cheese, peanut butter and ham slices inside. Definitely need something solid during the 24 hours, usually around 7pm and then in the middle of the night. We seldom come back to the hh anymore, unless it lies right in our path. The hot food is great, but so is keeping in motion as you say. Never stop to sleep. Used to do that, but have enough confidence in night nav that it's worth while to persist all night long. You can always sleep when you get back to work... |
