This winter, I've done several trips ranging from 3-5 days, in rough weather, but not in snow, just down in the valleys.
Usually, in winter I'm sound asleep at 8:00pm the latest (more often even at 7:00pm), so I'm up at first dawn.
The very first action I'm performing in the morning is opening the valve of the pad, the sound of the air buzzing out is the signal to get moving seriously, and quick.
Next its changing clothes from sleepwear to full-blown daywear.
Then stuffing the bag and rolling up the pad.
Packing most of the pack, putting on the boots, getting out of the tent.
Usually drying up, putting down and rolling up the tent is about the most uncomfortable part of the whole thing.
Then I'd stuff the pack and shoulder it, set the GPS to tracking and take a look at the watch - ~40minutes since opening the valve.
I always take a late breakfast later at around 9:00 or 10:00am.
In summer, given dry conditions, I can cut down the time to 30 minutes.
Again and again I'm wondering, why it does take me so much time to get going in the morning?
Whats your timing in the morning?
