July 20


Today we start the day's hike after a wonderful night's rest in the wilderness.
It was a successful Creek crossing with one minor mishap. We didn't catch any fish.

The campground is a horsey camp. Lots of horse poop to step around. But, surprisingly, there is no one else here. We are the lone campers. No camp games tonight. Just drinking and eating. The more we drink and eat, the less we have to carry uphill. Thankfully, it is a gradual uphill, gaining 3,200 feet in 10 miles over 2-3 days.

Today we are heading to Slide Lake, another 6 miles down the trail. The altitude is near 10,300 feet. Pant, le pant.

Where are those speak-no-evil monkeys?
