Andrew is jealous of Homies van microwave and all!!!

Yesterday we were driving up to Princeton trailhead and it was pouring! We parked when we saw the dirt bike, car and mtn bike. Shortly after dinner Homie and James showed up at the trailhead and did a lot of talking about routes for todays mountains. While they were talking, we had a little entertainment as a bear just decided to make his way to Andrews car towards the food, it wasnt hard to scare him off. Then Andrew arrived back at the trailhead and we headed towards Denny creek TH while I transitioned him in car. massages with the roller, fixing feet, changing socks and shoes, changing ace wraps, feeding, ibuprofen- all the good stuff. (We met Kim here). Andrew slept for 1 hour until about 215 am when we woke him up and he changed, got rolled out with the massager, brushed teeth and left for the trail at around 255 . We woke up around 645 and no Andrew so kim hiked up to 10800 and met Andrew there, they hiked back together. Andrew said he couldn’t shake being tired, he had to take a few naps on the trail. He has been struggling with the night hikes, as they are his slowest times. He is not looking forward to going up and down Huron in the dark, it will be a long day. At around 745 we left the trailhead and headed to Columbia – North Cottonwood trailhead. Here we organized all gear and vehicles and James left to hike with Andrew. James will descend and come down Harvard where me and Kim plan to hike up and meet James, then leave to do some scouting around Huron, and meet Andrew for some TLC.
