….. if you’ve seen the sufferfests before … you know what’s up.
The plan:
hike 34.5 miles in one “day”. This will take us ~18 hours. We don’t want to cowboy camp bc f*ck that so 3am wakeup it is!!! Come join us on the most (miserable) amazing trip ever.
we will be doing the loop counterclockwise and have a bailout car with water + snacks halfway through. This means that at any point individuals can hike to the starting or bail out car if it comes to it.
TO BRING:
MINIMUM 3L water (there’s refill streams that we will filter throughout, plus the car will have extra water)
FOOD FOOD FOOD: MINIMUM 4000 calories. We can leave snacks in the car too.
backpack to carry everything
layers
caffeine/electrolytes (or just salt)
comfortable hiking shoes
trekking poles (GEAR ROOM HAS THEM NOW text me if you can’t make it to one!)
ENERGY, STOKE, GAMES, and a CAPACITY FOR MISERY
***since this trip is so last minute PLEASE text us if you need help acquiring gear, food or anything else and we’ll help you out!!!!***
just know, you can ALWAYS bail, and you can ALWAYS slow down.
side effects of completing a suffer fest may include: hallucinating, all 6 stages of grief, questioning your existence, wanting to kill everybody on the trip, and wanting to eat 72 veggie burgers.
