DON’T mention PORK (especially the longish variety!)
Mar 2, 2017 at 12:11 pm #3453937Jen’s gotta let her ideas marinate for a bit to ensure she gets the true flavor of the adventure when she writes it.
Mar 2, 2017 at 12:58 pm #3453952C’mon, Jen. Throw us a bone here. Just something to whet our appetite. I’m really curious if cross-fit chick’s goose got cooked.
Mar 2, 2017 at 1:15 pm #3453958I think we are talking sausage making here.
Mar 2, 2017 at 1:34 pm #3453964I think that she needs to stew on it for a while
Why release a story if it is only half baked?
I think that we can all simmer down for a while
We don’t want her to be be in a pressure cooker
She’ll release the story when it is ripe
I am sure that it will be a lot to digest
Mar 2, 2017 at 1:38 pm #3453965Don’t ever party with the Donners.
Mar 2, 2017 at 2:39 pm #3453978Can’t wait for all the juicy details.
Mar 2, 2017 at 3:07 pm #3453986She’s writing a book on meat based Freezer Bag Cooking.
She did warn us with the title of this thread “…Gulp”
Mar 2, 2017 at 3:24 pm #3453993“I don’t like to get my ten little piggies wet ”
If suddenly Jen invites you to go hiking…decline.
Mar 2, 2017 at 3:41 pm #3453995Me thinks crossfit chick got wind of this thread and has dropped a kettlebell on Jen.
Mar 2, 2017 at 3:55 pm #3453996She’s writing a book on meat based Freezer Bag Cooking.
Using the details in our recent article on vacuum packing in Mylar bags, doubtless.Cheers
Mar 2, 2017 at 6:03 pm #3454024She’s writing a book on meat based Freezer Bag Cooking.
I sent her a PM. She said she’s been too busy with the dehydrator to write a trip report.
Mar 2, 2017 at 9:14 pm #3454066I think she said she was busy at the moment. Something about having a friend for dinner.
Mar 3, 2017 at 12:02 am #3454091Something about having a friend for dinner.
Silence of the LambsCheers
Mar 3, 2017 at 7:23 am #3454115In the meantime I guess we’ll just have to sit around and chew the fat.
Mar 3, 2017 at 8:40 am #3454117I got all excited when I saw this thread bumped.
Mar 3, 2017 at 9:00 am #3454123Seems like most every regular BPL poster has chimed in with a “getting eaten” pun. You gotta love that.
Mar 3, 2017 at 11:17 am #3454153It’s great to hear that Jen is alive and apparently well. So at least one member of the party returned – can’t be more than an 8 out of 10 on the epic scale.
Mar 3, 2017 at 11:47 am #3454159Seems like most every regular BPL poster has chimed in with a “getting eaten” pun. You gotta love that.
On my PCT hike, it took but the slightest of obstacles to get me to suggest resorting to cannibalism.
Mar 3, 2017 at 12:44 pm #3454164Hopefully something awesome happened or the prologue will be the high point of this thread. Its taking her a long time because she is trying to make all the hype pay off through crafty wordsmanship. (wordspersonship)
Mar 3, 2017 at 1:49 pm #3454177Or maybe nothing special happened and the hike went off peacefully and the cross-fit girl was strong enough that she managed just fine. And everyone has nice meals out of their packs. Which can make it very hard to write anything exciting.
Cheers
Mar 3, 2017 at 2:49 pm #3454190yes, so true… in which case Jen feel free to just make things up, the more horrific the better, please. Sort of the inverse of Gauguin wanting to come back home to France from Tahiti, where he was having a miserable time. And friends wrote back, ‘Oh no, don’t say that! For us your Tahiti is Paradise & you the hero who escaped there…’
Mar 3, 2017 at 6:39 pm #3454242- Maybe we should let her know it’s OK if she is now sporting a 30 lb base weight.
Mar 3, 2017 at 7:04 pm #3454247Oh, yeah, maybe it was Jen who got converted. She got a taste of the sweet life and now she spends her time posting on backpackingheavy.com about camp chairs, survival knives and 5-piece cooksets.
Mar 3, 2017 at 7:54 pm #3454255fresh socks every day is kinda nice tbh
