I was there this morning too, packing my little guy and chasing my other kids up the mountain.  Saw somebody packing a kifaru pack.

I was packing my Nomad, but I don't remember seeing any kids.

Well, the guys I know around here with Kifaru packs are all cool, stand up guys, so that shouldn't be a problem.

If Silk's talking about me when he says "Scott's sketch", he's dead on!  :chuckle:

I run Mon-Fri for an hour which is about 6 miles for me. Saturdays is a long run, 10-12, then rest on Sundays.  Also, really ramping up the weights this year.  I blew my shoulder out last year and lost all my muscle, so now I am working like hell to get it all back and then some!  Eat big to get big!  Got some really tough hunts coming up this year so I am hammering legs 3 times a week now instead of my old routine of 2 days a week.  Gonna be quadzilla by September.  After turkey season I will start backpacking to get my "mountain legs" in prime form.  Gonna put the new Kifaru to the test this year!

That's actually a relief, I was afraid my reputation had gotten out of control!  :chuckle:  Maybe it's the name?  :dunno:

Well it finally happened. After HUNDREDS of descents, I spilled my mountain bike this afternoon on the last hairpin coming down the Mud Mountain side of Mt. Pete. Loose gravel, over-inflated tires. Day dreaming. Oooops. Scrapes, cuts, rash, bruised ego. But I'll get right to it and answer the question a few of you may wish to ask. Yes, the bike is OK.

I've only taken one hard fall up there, and that was when I was running down the trail side.  I was irritated because I saw a water bottle some kid had thrown onto the train, and tripped on a rock just after the bench...

Embarrassing to say the least.  I was all cut up and muddy.  I've seen some really bad falls up there over the last few years.

Good lord you sound like a Horse person. Been on many 911's for falls from horse, people knocked out cold, spitting up blood, or broken pelvis the same words come out "is my horse ok?"
