Saturday, August 24:
Day: 67
Miles Hiked Today: 25.3
Miles Hiked So Far: 1084.3
Update: We keep trying to imagine we'll break camp earlier because the terrain is harder and the days shorter...but we've actually gone the other direction, leaving later since the sun comes up later. The day continued to be beautiful, but my leg continued to hurt, so we've slowed down considerably. I am, however, still faster than Reuben who is boggled by it :). The heat and exposure also takes its toll! I have some gross heat rash on my feet. It took us nearly 12 hours to go 25 miles (including a few lengthy breaks) but we're camped at a beautiful pass with incredible sunset views with promise of amazing sunrise views from our tent. We met some more SOBOs today: Super J, David, Snots, and Oh Well.
