gettin ready for a BIG trip

Bright and early tomorrow morning, Tom and I are heading out for a six night trip into Sequoyah/Kings Canyon NP. We've packed a bunch of research equipment, some of which we'll install in several lakes in the Barrett Lakes and Lecont Lakes area. We have to cover a lot of ground to get into our first site, so tomorrow we'll be trekking a mere 17 miles!! My boots are working great so far, but Tom recommended I get some sort of insoles, so I'll be gellin' with some Dr. Scholl's inserts, and hopefully that'll make the miles a little easier. I'm also bringing my fly rod, because I've heard that there a couple of good fishing lakes near where we'll be working, so hopefully i'll be able to add some wriggling, alpine trout to our dinner menus.
