The wave w/ all the comforts.
We went classic out-and-back from wire pass before heat builds starting at 6:25 am. Clear sky made timing simple and kept visibility high. Sand sections were soft but easy to follow w/ track lines.
Overall 4/5. Difficulty 4/5. Scenery 4/5.
Short version: break in boots at home.
Still thinking ~ this one.
