We are prepared for this day. We are equipped with all the most modern camping accessories from a store in Denver. We are in shape from aerobic exercise, at least four times a week for several weeks. We are at the edge of civilization, brought here by a friendly van driver along rain-gouged roads. My backpack is heavy. My neck hurts already and the air is thinner than in the valley. I sense that everything else will hurt by the time we reach camp tonight.
