Out at Swiftcurrent via Ptarmigan Tunnel
I watched them put on their packs after loading them up.
God bless 'em both 'cause them's wuz some HEAVY packs.
Heff And MissGuinness are truly nice people and dedicated backpackers.
I figured they would get something decent but when they told me what they got I was dumbfounded.
I'm thinking there have been some cancellations due to the fires.
Like Jen said....Don't give up. You cAn get good itineraries doing walkups.
Anyway, I'm glad they got what they wanted. Those two love those long hikes in the northern part of the park.

Heff & Miss G are like backpacking super heroes. I went with them for a few days on their 11 day trip a couple of years go. Their packs were huge and they had no trouble keeping the pace.macchia wrote:Jen,

It was a dream route just not a dream trip. You all will have to wait for the trip report for the details.Jen wrote:Their itinerary is freaking near perfect! Should make for a fantastic trip report. Just goes to show that you can get zilch in the permit lottery and still walkup and get most peoples dream route!
