I don't have words to describe my thoughts on another of Andrew's mind boggling feats in the mountains. So, I'll quote another well-known figure in the 14er community instead ...

Another huge accomplishment for Andrew! Great job, what a way to end the Summer! I am curious what he brought for food for this type of run? It would seem that quite a few calories would be needed. I imagine maybe a lot of powders that could be mixed into drinks?

From a previous post:
andrewhamilton wrote:Well just as Tallgrass says, I went pretty light on food just using a high calorie powder that mixes with water. If you are hurting enough it will taste delicious, trust me! :) Last year I also didn't bring a sleeping bag I just figured that would be too comfortable. The one time I stopped to take a nap ,at the Avalanche TH, I was shivering after just a few minutes and couldn't fall asleep so I just decided to keep going. I was pretty lucky though I was not prepared for bad weather and I just happened to get the one weekend last September that was good weather.
