Reminds me of hiking the Milford track in 89. Cold and wet, and my cancer ridden dad started having heart problems, passing out 1/3 of the way up the highest pass, 3700ft. My older much bigger brother saw he was having trouble, so he took off leaving me to deal with him. I had to carry him and both our packs on my back up to the lunch shack at the pass where he finally rested enough to make it down slowly (we almost missed the last boat across the sound). I weighed about 140, he was well over 200 and each pack was 30-40 lbs. He bought me an espresso machine as a reward. I hope he kicked my brother's ass privately too, but I'm not sure.
Good times....good times.

OMG! An espresso machine?!

Was that his way of telling you to hurry up next time?

Sheesh!

Lol.
It was his way of feeding my addiction and saving me money. I was drinking 1-3 quadruple espressos a day back then. I even tried to make one on the hike out of the only coffee they had....Folgers. ugh. Disgusting sludge.
