Post climb comfort
Ahhh, you’ve finished your climb and are back at your car at the trailhead after a long hike out. You’re sweaty, thirsty, and starving. While you rummage in your glove box in search of last summer’s energy bar, your carpool mate strolls over to the small creek next to the trailhead and retrieves a few icy cold beverages she stashed there 3 days back when you arrived. As she’s enjoying her drink, she wipes off the trail grime with a few unscented baby wipes she brought in a ziplock bag. Then, she grabs a bag of chips and dives in, inhaling the calories and salt that are so well earned after a big climb. Finally, she changes into a fresh T-shirt, shorts and comfy sandals for the long drive home, and tops it off with some canned coffee from or energy drink to stay alert while driving.
She glances over and asks, “So, how’s that Powerbar?”
