You are a tougher man than me. My wife and I went through there last June and it was kinda hard to even walk.

The main power lines heading from Orlando to the coast cut through the Everglades and are on a raised flat area that stays dry. Mostly. It's all grass and mowed regularly by the power line patrol. You could literally run over 50 miles on grass. I love it.

rad steve. 17 mile in that weather though. your body is from mars. One day you could climb everest and the next day acclimate just find to Death Valley. You take on a whole new meaning to enjoying pain. MIH
