I'm glad that we ended up changing our flights to YK a day early - Gives us a bit more time to chill-ax in town and finalize the gear list. With just over a day and half to go - I'm getting a wee bit nervous...
Travelling from Canmore, Mike (Argue), Liza (Pye) and myself drove up to Edmonton to catch our flight up North. The 3+ hr drive went by relatively quickly as the anticipation of the event loomed in our minds...Within minutes we were spilling the beans on our gear strategies, talking shop and trying to instill a bit of doubt in the others' mind...Either way, I figure it's good to keep my main competition close by, if only to keep tabs on him.

It's a good thing we arrived early because Mike busted the oversize x-ray machine in Edmonton and had to take EVERYTHING OUT to get checked! The security dude was just about to start fingering through his protein powder when the machine started working again! Good thing too because I was not looking forward to emptying my gear bag...

Phil,
I'm sure it will be quite the adventure! Best of luck. Looking forward to the stories when you get back.
Don't get too cold!

Mike's our guy. Make sure he wins this thing for the home team!
Good luck Phil!
