63 2806.3<\/a> 8\/16\/2021 sunny, hot. Woke and did my normal morning prep. I was on trail about 5:30. Had a 7.5 mile climb to the first peak. The scenery was wonderful. Less smoke today too. Saw no other hikers. Stopped for water several times. I wanted to guzzle at each snack and lunch break. Maybe I was sweating a lot. I got to Justin at 4:15 pm – that is, a 10:45 hour hiking time. I was a zombie. He too had a very tough day with a very difficult trail and many blowdowns. It took him 38 min per mile or twice his normal 20 mpm. We set up tents. Then we did my wound. He removed my stitches and put Steri-Strips on it. Then I covered it with gauze and wrapped it. Next we did my food resupply. Finally we had dinner. Now we are in our tents doing nightly chores. It\u2019s going to rain tomorrow and get much colder. I\u2019m planning on not pushing it, that is, doing about 15 miles per day. I have about 55 more miles to get the Bob Marshall Wilderness done. Then we are on to the Glacier NP and hiking with my dear daughter, Katie.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We both had very tough days. Justin had been through blowdown hell with a side order of thunderstorm. I became a zombie just marching along to get done. Nevertheless it was really good to meet in the wilderness like this (Photograph Courtesy of J. Watt)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
