Winter Backpacking trip

Got the gear all loaded up heading out a 4 day winter snowshoe backpacking trip.  The pack is at 45lbs right now, but will go up as I put in the last bit of food I can squeeze in.  Plan is to make it to the top of Government peak(1850ft) in the Porcupine Mountains.  Should be interesting as 3 of the 5 people going have not done much for backpacking.  I'm sure we will make some good memories on this trip. 

Once I get back, it is time to get some serious K's in on those ski's in preparation for the quickly approaching ski races(Noque, Badger state, Birkie, and maybe Bear Chase).  All of this is of course in preparation for the Wausau 24hr Duo race that I entered with my team-mate Jesse Shoemaker...

I'll have some good pictures to post after I return
