4-day Sipsey Hike coming up.

I'm going to Columbus, MS from Huntsville tomorrow to meet w/ a contractor, then on the way home Wednesday evening I'm stopping in the Sipsey Wilderness for a 3-night hike arouund the Wilderness area. Probably going to go from the Sipsey Rec Area go up the west side of the Sipsey up to 206, exploring each feeder along the way as time permits. Then come come to Bee Branch canyon go up West Bee then try to find a way up to 205. Then go 223 to 210 and following that south to 200 at Borden Creek and finishing the loop back at the Rec area.
Gear to test:
Tarptent Rainshadow 2
Nimblewood Nomad wood burning stove (canister backup)
Kelty Lightyear 40 down sleeping bag (used 3x car camping already)
Teva Control X-1 trail running shoes (broken in and actually used them in the Xterra 21k race 3 weeks ago but never used as primary hiking footwear)
myself (1st time going solo overnight)
