Final Words:
I've been ripping the lid off here this year, we've got my first book coming out soon, a little story of some of the lessons I learned from the Hotshot Wildland Firefighting world. So that'll be coming out when I can get it there. I'm still finishing editing on that, so that's taken longer than I expected.

Come this July I'll be doing my first 100-mile mountain biking race of all things, the Wilderness 101 aka W101.
