The goal is to depart the Bay around 7:00pm, heading towards South Lake. Tomorrow we will catch a ride to the trailhead and get moving on Friday. The morning was spent with Evan, running errands to Sports Basement (great Bay Area sports/gear shop), REI, and Best Buy to pick up an awesome sun hat, ultra-light day pack for chasing turns, another camera battery, and a few other gems. Obviously Evan found time to rest up on the Sports Basement ski bench.
The afternoon was spent weighing all of my gear and to make sure I have a managable load and am taking the lightest option every time. Abandoning the 10 pound tent I took on Trans-Sierra 1 and trading my thermarest for a ridgerest/foam combo will save me 12 quick pounds. More on the pack weight upon my return...

How much does the frappachino weigh?
A Grnade Double Chocolate Chip Frappacino with whipped cream weighs approximately 18 ounces, but has only 510 calories. If it had about triple the calories I might have thought about bringing one along.
