Got to see Andy Skurka's presentation last night in Orlando. Obviously, the feat itself is incredible--snowshoeing for a couple of months, -20 degree nights, using a lot of map and compass work, doing it alone, etc. What made it better is what a genuinely nice guy he seems to be. He was aticulate, witty, thoughtful, and appreciate of all who helped him. He excuded a marvelous quiet confidence without any braggadocio or swagger. He's a great ambassador for the hiking community.
And GoLite and Travel Country Outdoors (the outfitter which hosted the presentation) gave away some terrific door prizes!
