I'm 55, can drive up to 7000 ft in the Sierras and hike straight up 2000 more feet the same day.

I would not do that in California, but I can do it in Idaho, Montana, Washington and Oregon.

I'm 65, eat meat, and pack extra freight every day. If I didn't have the extra freight it would be a lot easier, but it doesn't keep me from driving to 7000 feet and walking up to 9000. I think it's a matter of desire. I eat broccoli and oatmeal for breakfast. Maybe that's it.

Doren,

If you've ever backpacked you know food is hard to get. I base my diet on what a guy on the veldt would find:

What is always available are roots and leaves - vegetables. Roots are available year round. Lots of this in the diet.

Are you saying that a lion will turn into a cow, because there are leaves and grass available?

Joe
