woof, was looking at the elevation profile on L2H (click the red line and click "Profile") and realized the first 14 miles from Badwater to Telescope Ridge in Death Valley NP are a deal breaker as I don’t reasonably think I can do 10k elevation gain in a day… did several thousand feet less on my biggest day on the PCT which I was in shape for and took a nap and I was still exhausted the next day. love the area and it feels… slightly uncomfortable to realize I’d be out of my league.
