That is a LONG time to go almost non-stop, but they are used to that. Doesn't make it any less impressive.
I just can't get past how Andrew, Andrea, Justiner, etc., can do stuff IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT that is beyond my skill set in the daylight.
Anyway, congratulations on a great achievement.

That was quite the experience! We will have our report on our blog a2summit.com/blog this week sometime! I’ll be posting on instagram when it goes up! Thanks again for being interested in our project and also, thanks to you Justin for being so detailed in all your reports. It helped us in our scouting trips and piecing this project together. We have so much respect for those who have done this alone, self supported and unsupported- just incredible

Their Tenmile Mosquito report is up too. Great read. These guys definitely aren’t the fastest out there. but what they can sustain is what makes them stand out IMO
Here is the link for the Tenmile mosquito

All of these were good reads! It sounds awful hiking at night with never-ending ridges, bumps, and talus. Congratulations to Andrew and Andrea!

I'll post the Tenmile-Mosquito traverse link in the other thread as well.
