my feet are totally fine. it always amazes me how efficiently the human body can heal itself. even my heal feels fine - there is a large lateral crack that scabbed over nicely, helped along by keeping my feet out of my sleeping bag all night.
as i hiked along i was entertained by my ego mind being full of regret for not having pushed on a little further the previous day. the ascent up to seldon pass proved to be quite easy and there was almost no snow. i chose not to get involved with this idea of regret and thoroughly enjoyed my morning.
here is a pic of me at the top of seldon pass . . .
i decided to hike the side trail to vvr because all i had left for food was a pop tart, which was gone by 06:30. in two hours i ate a big lunch, checked email, resupplied, and caught the 16:30 ferry back across the lake. i decided to get in and out simply because their internet was by satellite and extremely slow and i had decided to zero in mammoth, which i will get to tomorrow.
here is a pic on the way up to silver pass . . .
here is a video at the top of silver pass . . .
and finally, here is a beautiful sunset from just below silver pass . ..
34 miles for day with 6 to vvr and 28 pct miles from florence lake trail to square lake. 886 miles total.
