Patience is a Virtue

So I thought I'd start this adventure a bit earlier in the month, but then life handed me a few decisions, and long story short, I'm hitting the road... tomorrow! I'm super ready to go now, and very excited! I spent my intermediate month doing some school work (I'm done!), visiting Ontario for some gravel and wind resistance bike training and quality family time, and attempting an 8 day ski traverse of the Stein divide traverse. The Stein was fantastic even though the weather did not allow us to complete the traverse. It was great practice carrying a heavy backpack, whiteout navigation (hopefully something I won't need), route-finding and making good decisions. A few photos from when the skies cleared from the traverse are below. Enjoy!






Plan: bike to San Diego in 20 days, hike back... I suppose it is the long way to Manning park. @probablyoutsidejulie #teamnuun
