    DON’T mention PORK (especially the longish variety!)

    Jen’s gotta let her ideas marinate for a bit to ensure she gets the true flavor of the adventure when she writes it.

    C’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.

    I think we are talking sausage making here.

    I 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

    She’s writing a book on meat based Freezer Bag Cooking.

    She did warn us with the title of this thread “…Gulp”

    If suddenly Jen invites you to go hiking…decline.

    Me thinks crossfit chick got wind of this thread and has dropped a kettlebell on Jen.

    Using the details in our recent article on vacuum packing in Mylar bags, doubtless.

    I sent her a PM. She said she’s been too busy with the dehydrator to write a trip report.

    I think she said she was busy at the moment. Something about having a friend for dinner.

    In the meantime I guess we’ll just have to sit around and chew the fat.

    Seems like most every regular BPL poster has chimed in with a “getting eaten” pun.  You gotta love that.

    It’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.

    On my PCT hike, it took but the slightest of obstacles to get me to suggest resorting to cannibalism.

    Hopefully 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)

    Or 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

    yes, 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…’

    • Maybe we should let her know it’s OK if she is now sporting a 30 lb base weight.

    Oh, 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.
