I can't believe the time and effort required to put this together. How you could prepare and work at the same time I really don't know.
Dehydration is finally finished and the 2nd unit returned with thanks to S&Y. Tarp is now complete. They estimated 8hrs work but I reckon it was more like 16hrs.
It took nearly three hours today just to package the 36 breakfasts. Each is 90g cereal, 15g milk powder and 20g dried fruit (approx. 1.5 Kiwi or Nectarine). Each is double bagged and the fruit separated for ease of re hydration on the trail.
The heat wave and total fire ban are putting a fly in the ointment. Worst comes to worst the pasta will soften in cold water but hardly ideal. Temperatures need to drop somewhat to make the walk bearable and moreover, safe.
Tomorrow - Package up the rest of the food and finalise gear list
